Why Would They vote for that?
Fifteen Crew...all flying two years....little experience...young.
A brawl breaks out onboard...you are sitting 1A...are you going to sort it out as you see it escalate?
The only time you would get involved is when your Dom gets spilt by someone involved in the fracas.
Seniority is a recognition of accumulated experience and an ability to identify problems BEFORE they become problems.
If you have never seen a scorpion before how do identify it as being dangerous?
You Can't.
Someone who has experience might be able to assist.
You cant squeeze 50 years of experience into a 25 year old head.
Seniorty recognizes that.
Management despise seniority because those with experience tend to be less gullible and naive.
There are very few in the management of any large company who are honest with their employees and treat them with respect.
As in any society the older more senior tend to look after the younger more junior members....until they are experienced enough to look after themselves.
Order is required in any group/society
That order usually is determined by age and experience.
Would you let an 18 year old run your company?.
More importantly would you like an 18 year old telling you what to do?
The family unit is based on seniority.
Except,as in MPs case ..dad is senile and his 2 year old runs the show
