I will make no comment other than to say that I was not too surprised to read what was written.
You can wait a very long time in aviation for a third or fourth level carrier to crew up to full speed. Management will always work on the shoestring and once they've forced sick crews into flying, the one off becomes the norm. I very much doubt that the crew levels will change much during the average length of stay of a pilot with the company. But there we are then, perhaps you'll make it into the left sooner rather than later. Just hope you're not destined to be one of the Captains implied in the website quoted.
Oh yes, as a postscript:
I had absolutely nothing to do with the aforementioned and quoted website. Honest Injun!
