I invited a dialog without the name calling, alas It was too much to ask and expect. You unfortunately are too caught up with emotion to have any meaningful dialog. All I did was give you my real life experience followed by an opinion of watching and being in this industry for 20 years, I too am 20 years from retirement (the new one)
the rules you state I had/Have no issue with until that is the entitlement crowd got greedy and changed them with no regard to the folks following along behind. You like I have been messed with by the system probably in differing ways.
I am sorry (for you and too you) that you feel saying what I feel and believe is "venom" perhaps you should take this emotion and anger and try very hard to allow me to see a differing perspective. Perhaps my view is clouded due to hearing and seeing to many first hand experiences with the entitlement crowd in aviation. Or perhaps as others have said here their is a real life issue with what is transpiring in the aviation community?
In the "real world" you either perform or you move on either by your own or with assistance. In this world (aviation) you are OK with being protected and if you have "seniority" being and doing what you want is supposed to be acceptable because you have earned it.....sorry in my world you only earn what you earn at the moment not what you were or did 10-20-30 years ago.
When I got into aviation I saw a lot more giving back....now I see a lot more taking back! Heck who knows maybe my generation will be as bad.......God I hope not!
