Why is everybody talking smack
Why is everyone constantly talking smack about Skywest?
I saw someone say stuff on Endeavor page
What’s going on here that everyone has bad things to say ?
Asking for a friend

a) Blaming OO pilots for their troubles, or
b) Telling themselves how much better off they are (they're not, BTDT)
Tune them out, get your time, and get out. If you end up staying, you'll still probably be better off them they are.

Because their lives or situations suck. They can feel better about themselves by either

Because culturally you guys can be easy to make fun of from time to time. Between the surfer bro, plastic bachelor party captains and flying around at the speed of smell all the time it’s easy to riff on you. Most of the prodding I hear/see is this type and it’s meant in good fun (unless captain slow makes someone miss a commute because you guys are taxiing at a turtle’s pace).
You also benefit from the dues of all the union airlines because your airline is forced to appease you enough that you don’t organize. Personally I don’t care, the way things are set up it’s just a reality of the industry. There are some bitter people that have a legit chip on their shoulder about it though.

Since when does "someone" now translate to mean "everybody"? Exaggerate much?
Regional pilots talk smack about each other in order to justify and prove to themselves that they chose the best one, when it's really subject to interpretation, since there's no "best" regional out there, despite recruiters thinking so.

It's easy to explain. As a species, humans tend to judge others by their actions but themselves by their intentions (and not actions). We give ourselves the benefit of the doubt or supply explanations that self-rationalize our own behavior but don't do any of that for anyone else and make judgements based solely on what we observe.
