Sir, it is because of people like you that I stopped reading this forum years ago. It is out of sheer boredom I stumbled across your hateful statements. I rarely posted, but was so perturbed by your lack of class, tact, and general disrespect for fellow pilots that I felt the need to comment. Now, I do not know your history because I have better things to do besides spend hours stalking boards that people such as yourself, make childish and unprofessional. However, I find it quite astounding that you have yet to be banned. To make off-color statements regarding 5191 and to cheer at the fact that hundreds of pilots have lost their jobs, is nothing but a testamant to your lack of simple humanity. I am amazed that someone of your attitude has made it to a major airline, and am upset at the fact that thousands of passengers a month unknowingly put their safety into the hands of someone with obvious mental issues. I may have been one of the unlucky furloughed - but keep in mind, however you were burned by Comair in the past...myself and 205 others had nothing to do with what happenned to you back in '01 or earlier. Two years ago or less, we all chose the job for a reason, because it fit our situation. And while we do not necessarily always agree with the union...management...even the actions of our fellow pilots....we commit to ourselves and our familes to show up, be a professional, and do our jobs safely. The immature politics of people such as yourself is what creates friction amongst groups. While I don't consider myself a big "team player" or want much at all to do with the "brotherhood" of the union, I am decent enough to respect other pilots in their decisions and fail to see the point of your repeated wishing for bad things to reign down on jobless pilots such as myself. I'm not bitter, I'm not mad, life will go on, and I will continue to pride myself on the fact that I understand the more important things in life....and that walking by someone when they're down is at least better than kicking them.
