If you treat employees well, empower them to make sound decisions, and show them they are valued, there are dozens of situations your individual employees will handle in a way that help the business throughout the course of a day.

If you handle your employees poorly, threaten them regarding possible decisions, and treat them like children…well you get the idea.

Many of us came here because we thought that was real here. It’s a fantastic job but we could have done this fantastic job elsewhere.

It was real some time ago. Now, not at all. But it’s very liberating in a way when you not only think you are a number…but when they tell it to your face. The decisions you make after that point are much easier.

Fly less than 50 block annually so you never have a true pulse on what’s happening out on the line.

Dip below 50 block hours and I think it comes with a complimentary "DO NOT JA OR REROUTE" note on your board!

You get the chief pilot designation. That means they can’t be JAed for all the seagulls doing work that frustrates line swine.
