Just because you never met your dad doesn’t mean you need to bash his attempt to help his son. I wish my dad was able to land me a major airline gig early on. I would do the same for my son.

He's not helping him land anything, he's doing something his son can do himself. Now kick rocks....

Amen.

There are back doors to everything, but good luck finding them. Old men know things about employment, professions, careers, and networking.

Google tells you a great deal, but not much that's very useful. Wikipedia tells you even more (most of it is transparent BS; the remainder is non-transparent BS)

I'd say "Get the major airline offer first. Ride it out for a year, or three. Then commit.".

You don't know what you don't know. The extreme pickiness of "which major?" is an anomoly and won't last long.

He just doesn't want his kid to end up selling cheese sandwiches for a living. Daddy would you like some sausage?
