Working in the flight office of an airline, are going to spend 99.9% of your time, mostly dealing with the same problem children, over and over.

Just so you know back in the day I was in "management" and know the full routine. So unless you get asked and are in the know you will not get hired no matter how you applied.

Yes you "have" to fill out the official application, but rarely is there a surprise person in the office. They have already been vetted via special assignments and other work, including ALPA volunteer . You'd know that if you worked for UAL. So I'd say you have very little risk or threats.

Press on!

PS. It really isn't politics or favoritism (well mostly not). It's bringing men and women that are known and can be trusted with the "keys. "

If you actually work for UAL volunteer in your local ALPA council and get known for your quality work and support of your fellow pilots. It's not about improving you lifestyle.

I have done management in other places. For me, being a flight office puke would be bad for my attitude. I will rather just fly my line, go home, and beat up on Staller on APC.

Think about it Probe - You think more about Staller than he does about you - does that mean you have a male crush for Staller or something?

It's sad that there is still such an obsession with said former user. That was what 2-3 years ago now?
