Ex-UAL pilot sues United for defamation

The more and more I read these threads, the more I realize the hiring process is working pretty well at the legacies. Give me the dude with the checkride failures in my right seat that learned from his experience and has a good attitude. I’d rather have that guy/gal than the arrogant and jealous individual that cherry picked his DPEs so that he can remain superior to others on an Internet forum.

I don’t know. If I click that face symbol it says Express Yourself, Log in or Sign Up. Might be an iOS display thing? Mine is outdated. I don’t do the auto update BS , my phone always seemed to update itself at the wrong time. I’m still on iOS 16 whereas the latest is 18+.

100%. When somebody brags about it in that way it’s a massive red flag to me that they both have an invulnerability mindset and a lack of humility. I’m sure a lot of people who have made what seem like dumb mistakes thought they never would.
Plus, like you said, I’d rather take someone who has faced adversity once or twice and knows how to get back up when they’re down in the dirt. I’d be willing to bet they’re going to fight through it rather than throwing their hands up because they’ve never seen hardship.

Yes. It means they know how to recover.

A few years ago, I trained with a guy who ended up having to repeat some procedures and it emotionally destroyed him because he’s had an otherwise perfect record.

It’s like the relationship scene. You kinda of want to have your first big breakup with a partner in high school. You learn how to deal with it, how to move forward and how to get over it and resume life. If you wait until you’re in your 40’s, you’re going to want to jump off a bridge.

The one you didn’t cover here is the dude with checkride failures or dumb stuff, who hasn’t leaned from their failures and have either a good, or aloof, or maybe even a bad attitude. And just keep chugging along in their career of mediocrity as a known accident waiting to happen. Have seen those kinds slip through the cracks and manage to get jobs in places they likely ought not be.

Any interviewer that is even halfway competent at their job can ask the right questions, and sort that out with a high degree of accuracy. There will always be those that slip through the cracks, it’s not100% science, but for the most part it gets sorted.

Agreed. The trap catches most. There will always be a few slip throughs here and there.

The must-make-a-video-about-every-mundane-thing people do annoy the heck out of me though. And they’re in many areas of work.

…and they pass the process.

How do we screen for THAT?

Are you implying everyone who never had a failure is only the result of cherry picking DPEs?
