FamilyGuy, Troll et al:
I had to wonder a while why you would reveal my name on here. Troll's excuse that Bridgeway Bob's name was revealed so why shouldn't mine sounds like a a child at the playground who threw sand at someone in their sandbox because they saw one of their parent's do something innappropriate. As I said, I didn't reveal Bridgeway Bob's name nor have I used it in any of my posts. So, that reason is completely fabricated out of nothing to justify a behavior.
Going beyond that, my posts are always respectful and when I err, I offer my apologies and admit my mistake(s). So, I don't think it's because I have offended anyone not that that would give an excuse for what you did.
So, it comes down to you wanting me to feel threatened. And, as I have admitted, I now feel threatened. Perhaps, as I have said, this makes you somehow feel powerful and smug in your knowledge of who I am as you stand behind your (cowardly) anonymity.
Then I had to ask myself, "Why would you want to threaten ANYONE? What can be gained by threatening someone and inducing anxiety and fear in someone? What motivates someone to do that besides what I said in the above paragraph?"
As I said above, my posts are respectful and I admit it when I make a mistake, so I don't think it's me, per se', who has done anything to warrant your putting my name on here.
Perhaps I am simply a target to vent your frustrations upon. I am an NJA pilot so if you can do something to harm me in some way, perhaps it's expressing some kind of vengeance on the group as a whole. You're frustrated, angry and upset so that has to go somewhere and I was a convenient target so FIRE ONE! HIT! Do you feel better now?
I wonder if you asked yourselves what the effects would be by your doing so beyond the desire to scare me? Am I and other pilots more likely to look upon you and management more favorably, or am I and other pilots going to be even MORE suspicious and watchful of what spews out of CMH? Are you trying to develop an ally or alienate me/us even more? What do you think is the likely reaction? Can you honestly say that you did something positive by doing what you did? Are you proud of making someone feel threatened while you stand behind your anonymity?
And what does your behavior do to the credibility of what you have to say? it certainly reflects badly upon your character and integrity and says that you will stoop pretty low to achieve your goals. Is this how you want to be perceived?
Whatever the result of your doing so, whether nothing or whether I am now targeted somehow in CMH, I know that someday all will be revealed. If I am harmed in any way because of your actions, there will be justice.
It's really too bad that it has come to this kind of thing. I am truly sorry that you felt such anger and frustration that you felt you needed to do this to someone whom you don't even know.
I hope that we all come out of this able to smile. This will end someday. In the meantime, you guys take care of yourselves. Stress is a killer and needs to be managed properly or it can have some serious effects. Be good to yourselves and your families 'cause in the end, it's certainly not worth this having harmed your marriages/families OR yourselves in any way.
God bless us all and help us all to get through this ordeal.
I support anyone trying to get a raise, it's good for everyone and Heaven knows all this industry needs is another 2200 pilots on the street.
