If its true AT&T is "distressed" by this thread, it only has management to blame. I am told the atmosphere is toxic. Management uses the old philosophy "the beatings will continue until moral improves". The only thing distressful is they don't know who to punish, when the reality sounds like they are their own largest problem.
A previous poster mentioned "perks for those who have worked their way to the top". Like the old Mel Brooks movie, "History of the World", "It's good to be the King". Except when your hardworking crews are criss crossing the U.S. while you wine and dine the misses, probably on the company dime.
The key word missing from this entire thread is Leadership. It appears to be missing from this flight department as well. We all know, corporate aviation is at the whim of the CEO's. That doesn't relinquish the CP from being a leader. Nor does it allow for pompous asst cp wannabes to just lie in wait until retirements allow your number to be called so you can ascend to their throne.
Hammer2 is right. A career in this department used to be a coveted position. Now it seems to be in free fall to nothing more than a place holder until hours are built, or a true career position becomes available.
Management is reactionary and a scorned. Leadership is assertive and respected. It's all too clear where AT&T has gone
