Nah. The crowd is just butthurt correcting harmful factual errors at some hard truths conjecture from the outside uneducated perspective. I have no dog in this fight, excluding 2016-2019. [Where I was incapable of making the jump to a legacy, gave up, and now blame the hiring system instead of looking inward to make changes.] I couldn’t care less and haven’t for 6 years now. This rejection still bothers me greatly even though I yell loudly that it does not. I interject myself into every hiring thread to preach about the rigged system and hiring practices so that I can feel better about my previous rejection. I capped max pay at 38 and if things go well, retire #3. I still have plenty of time left to make the jump to a legacy but will continue to keep the status quo because I’m stubborn, refuse to change, and refuse to accept responsibility for my rejection. We will only know if we made the right choice at age 65 (soon to be 67), even though a quick read through the CBA and some grade school level mathematics tell me I should make the jump.
Anyway, I still call out the BS of hiring people who have literally bent 121 airplanes in the past, yet good folks like Acro don’t get a chance. I still try to use a JC member as a pawn for my argument even though it’s detrimental to her career because I really don’t care about her career, just trying to prove “I’m right.”
