The market for pilots is rising, and Virginia Avenue is being left behind due to shortsighted mahogany row groupthink.

It is our leverage, though. Unless you prefer to ignore it.

You're delusional if you think what new hires think gives us leverage. Who cares? Not the company. They are metric driven and follow every new hire statistic with great interest. If they see a decline in acceptance rates of new hires, they will adjust. So far, according to a buddy in the interview group, this has not happened.

Or you could explain your understanding of this great leverage we get from new hire disinterest.

That's not exactly a good use of training resources, is it?

Not really much leverage value there for anybody with more than 6 hours with the company.
