WHY on earth would you continuously WISH for another pilot's company to just "fizzle out and die"? Do you truly wish to see thousands of pilots and other employees simply lose their livelihoods, and quite probably their careers, just so you can say "see I TOLD you so! WE are better than YOU!"
It's ridiculous and childish.

It's not that I want them to fail, I have a loads of friends there that went there when it was the flavor of the month. nevets with the constant " rah rah Union rah rah " or "you're riding our coat tails" rhetoric is more annoying especially considering they haven't been profitable in many years and are being sustained by the other side of the house. When I was based in IAH there was a clear disdain from expressjet pilots for us "taking their flying" even to the point that they were refusing jump seats. I think it's normal when people comes into our thread bashing that they will get it back.Originally Posted by 450knotOffice
Ok, you simply represent quite a few posters I've seen on this and other threads with regard to the whole ridiculous Expressjet/Skywest debate, so it applies to all of you who would say this:WHY on earth would you continuously WISH for another pilot's company to just "fizzle out and die"?
