Spot on as was the rest of your post. To folks sitting on the fence (either to leave or to come), the change in attitude is what is required and is what we probably won't see. This place really started to slide downhill about 4 years ago. Think back to what happened - the start of the hyper expansion and the appointment of a new airline president. Neither shows any signs of going away. This flight department is run exactly like the boys in the head office want it to be run. If the rumour is true that the jumpseat was denied us yet again when it finally made its way to the big guys desk, then it just goes to show that nothing has changed and most probably, nothing will change.
