Ermmmm...... So you feel you would not have had any respect for the baggage handler if you had not "had your time in the industry" then hmm....? I have respect for pretty much all kind hearted and thoughtful people and my "time in the industry" is limited to pilot, human being, individual, team member.... etc etc.
Fact is, those that wish to be baggage handlers be baggage handlers, those that wish to be cabin crew be cabin crew. Those that wish to be pilots be pilots - all of the above have to be qualified, motivated and above all else human beings (last time I looked anyhow).
I don't see "an attitude" in the postings above but I do see some fed up aspiring pilots who would much rather receive an appropriate response from their applications for pilot positions!
Quite right too IMHO.
