You all are demanding more money and better schedules and acting like what you do is brain surgery and everyone should have to pay through the nose for the privileged of sitting on your airplane and you are calling me the entitlement generation.This is the entitlement generation at work right here. Don't like it? Just quit.
As Homer said, "Lisa, if you don't like your job you don't strike. You just go in every day, and do it really half-assed. That's the American way."
Why don't you get a few years under your belt and a family and realize that quitting isn't exactly easy potatoes when you don't have mommy and daddy to pay your bills for you.
No.. He's just an idiot..
You are the kind of kid that is killing the airlines... Walk proud son, walk proud..
Dude.. he's got Cherokee 6 time..
Ah man, he's 22.. Got the tiger by the tail, that one..
What kind of workrules should airlines run, Killtron? The bare minimum to keep the crews just alert enough to hopefully recover an airplane in an emergency?
How long would you say an appropriate duty day is? an appropriate rest period?
What about crew pay? 12000 a year fine for you? Less? You'll probably find a few people to fly for that.
If you are so smart why don't you tell me how I'm wrong. By the way a misspelled word or typo doesn't refute my point in case you were going to go there.
You missed it entirely.I've just bolded here the points I find inane.
-You would find people.
-You're right, corporations couldn't possibly put a gun to someone's head. I mean a government is run by people, whereas a corporation is run by people. I see the difference
-I'm not. I think you are trying to make a point with someone else. I'm fine taking risks... turns out I'm a pilot and all... anyhow the grown ups have decided what constitutes a risk the traveling public can expect. Someday we'll let you in.
-Since I didn't, you assumed it (I hope) or you are having conversations with yourself (worried here). I don't know how to respond to this. I sped a little on the way home and bought taco bell for myself on the way there. Would you like to see my gun and pocket knife collection? Are you having a conversation with me or with someone else? What you've done goes so far past simple assumptions. You are in some sort of strange world... come back.
-I think it's funny you put a number value on it. So does the FAA. It's how we determine reliability during the cert process.
-No one is going to risk their lives or others when they deal with an expensive piece of machinery? No one at all? (Hint: Pinnacle...) You can't think of one example? You do live on earth right? I mean I know the interweb is big, I'm just trying to nail down the basics. Are you trying to say the value of the airplane is what is important? That can't be, because along that line of reasoning someone would happily take a POS Cherokee 6 out for split-s with passengers onboard. Since that really can't be your line of reasoning I wonder why you bring it up. Leads me to believe you are just rambling.
You have to understand. When I read this reply to my earlier posts I didn't know what do to. Obviously you read something somewhere that convinced you I said some things I didn't. How do I respond to someone that has such obvious reading comprehension problems? I think to myself... maybe when I said people take extraordinary risks for little reward he somehow interpretted it to mean that I don't think anyone should take risks ever. Then I think... no don't assume he's brain dead, he must mean something else. Then I go back and forth and back and forth and a fuse blows. I realize, that there is no way to talk to you, because you can't read and comprehend. Maybe I should just let you keep rambling?? But no... no you ask for more. What am I to do?
I'm sorry, I really can't help you. There is a problem with children at young ages. You show them a 3-D model of a mountain with different landscape and colors for each side, and them you turn one side away from them and ask them to draw the side of the mountain you are looking at. Instead, they only draw the side they can see. Until the child develops, months or years later, they can not comprehend the question because their brains cannot make those connections yet. I fear, somehow, you are still younger than this all important age.
I hope you are just drunk.
You called me an idiot so you must think you're smarter then me.I never claimed to be smart.. I simply think you have a lot to learn..
I simply think you are wrong and make quite a few assumptions..
To that end..
I'll tell you how you are wrong, in just the previous post..
Assumption 1. That I am smart..
Assumption 2. That I was going to play grammar nazi on you.. While I do think the inability to spell correctly and punctuate properly shows not only ignorance but laziness. A word here or there is one thing.. A post full of them, says something about the one posting the text. This is text medium we communicate in and if you can't take the time to do it properly - you are lazy or ignorant.. Having that said, I haven't paid enough attention to your posts to see where you might or might not be screwing up in that regard, thus I wasn't going to point those errors out..
So.. There.. I've proven you wrong twice..
Not sure why, but after reading your previous post and replying to it, I feel the urge to say..
Nee-ner, nee-ner, neeeee-ner!!
Maybe you can't but that's a personal problem and not managements fault. You feel like the world owes you something because you can fly a plane?No no no.... the solution is if you don't like the pay you just quit. Because we all know that you can take your skills and experience and automatically get paid better wherever you go.... oh wait, you can't.
You all are demanding more money and better schedules and acting like what you do is brain surgery and everyone should have to pay through the nose for the privileged of sitting on your airplane and you are calling me the entitlement generation.
You called me an idiot so you must think you're smarter then me.
In my experience when somebody doesn't have a real point to make about the topic and that have called someones intelligence into question they usually turn to grammar and spelling corrections.
I thought that might be where you would take it.
