I wasn't "one upping" anyone, just stating facts about my company. Your comments are typical of today's society where there can be no winners or losers, that wouldn't be "fair". There are winners and losers in society. I'll be the first to admit that I'm very fortunate to have landing at a winning company. Just because you didn't, don't drag me or my company down to your level.

You say "my company" too much for me to believe you're actually with a company. If you're so proud, name it.

I've given you more than enough clues to figure it out. I don't have to prove anything to you.

That's fine, didn't know this was a gameshow. Anyway, the guy needs to practice a little humility.

Hubris has it's own rewards, his day will come and then he will wish there were a hiring hall like the MM&P has or MEBA, or other maritime unions...but sadly the cycle is doomed to perpetuate itself partly due to attitudes like his, and the hubris it embodies.

This idea has been kicked around for at least 15 years. While conceptually, it sounds good, the cold hard reality is that it will NEVER gain any traction.

Just think about the reality of the concept. Where do you start ? What criteria does one use to establish the "seniority list" ? Does X number of years as an F/O on a EMB-145 flying domestically equate to the same time spent as an F/O on a 747-400 flying internationally ? No matter how you slice it, there isn't common ground to start on and the idea will never see V1.
