What in Captain Tony's posts did I misinterpret? I'm more than willing to admit if I was mistaken or misunderstood something.
Now I do concede that I assumed that only hiring pilots from union carriers meant hiring only union pilots, and that was the catalyst for this discussion. Hiring only from union carriers is different than hiring only union pilots. However that was stated by Anchor Down, and there is still no proof of this resolution.

Wow, passive aggressive much? More like the 8 year F/O, with 6000+ hours of worthless SIC time, looking to get out of this train wreck of an industry.

Well, it's all true until the "I smell news" part... I smell no good news over the next few years. Especially for the FOs stranded at this disaster of an airline. Total of 12 upgrades this year? (FMC) F&@% my career.

The blame for career stagnation lies with the mainline contracts and their short sighted scope from many years ago.

woah woah woah, no fighting! There's plenty of blame to go around! I'm looking at being an 8 year FO. I think I'll break down the blame like this:
50% ASA Mgt
30% ALPA
19% Majors (whipsaw/contracts, etc...)
1% Me for choosing this company

It is human nature to be self sighted, but this industry is, and always has been extremely cyclical. The last classes hired at the majors in the 60's sat on the panel of 727's for a decade. UA, AA, DL...just now finishing up last furlough recall... Have you talked to anyone at US Air that was hired in the 80's or 90's.... Miserable.... Braniff, Eastern, TWA, Pan Am, Comair, World.... Get over yourselves... this career is a crap shoot... period... and if your "6000+" hours in your chosen field are "worthless".... that's your fault.
