Management isn't here for you or your family or core 4 or whatever nonsense military / non military knows about running anything. They will line their pockets while they can and move on. Just like we should be doing.

Great thought. You’re at the wrong airline.

This ain’t some middle manager pushing paper and overseeing a few desk jockeys. Haven’t seen your handle on here much. You new to the airline biz? Or just having a little fun?
