They give PS ticket and hotel is up to you.
Like stated above, they suggest a few that are near TK.

There is a small crew lounge with recliners on the 2nd floor of F Building at TK... Stay out of sight.

What generation was handing out those trophies again?

Last time I checked the classes ranged from 55yo to 27yo. Most of those would be late Gen-Xers and that tired trope would only apply to one or two people per class. . This crud is a myth that shows up at every airline, it's a story that leads every time too. :rolleyes:

if you have a huge problem with many of the new-hires you fly with, its time for some introspection.

Case and Point!

Really....is that how you brief? Sit there and let me be the Captain? Every captain I have worked has welcomed me to Ual and told me speak up if I see something I dont understand or dont like. Are they doing it wrong?

Nope THEY aren't :D

You learn more from cPTs that have a lack of CRM than the "good" ones IMO. It shows you the way NOT to do it.

Welcome to United brutha :)

Thanks....happy to be here. I truly enjoy coming to work.

Not at all Worst and you're statement above is exactly how I word my briefing. Unfortunately some are reading into this too much and missing my intent. Welcome to UAL but please check your ego and former 4 stripes at the cockpit door. Play nice, do your job, and save room for beverages at the destination.

Pretty simple, IMHO.

Seems like the majority of new hires are former line check airmen or instructor pilots in the military. Not that there is anything wrong with that, said Seinfeld!

I was told by BK that the only thing lacking on my resume was LCA.
