Jimothy - That is why these forums are a far cry from an accurate representation of the industry climate.
Most people who aren't jaded or have issues with certain aspects (i.e. new logo etc) won't usually write about it. However, as soon as people become frustrated this forum offers the perfect medium to vent. I think its wise for new pilots to not get absorbed into the pprune, as it can be a severly skewed representation of reality.
