Where I work currently, I am dealing with pilots that have all been promoted early due to lack of pilots and growing fleets, these aircraft are now flying around with no SO's as before.
They are now all FO's and FO's are now Capt's. In comparason with the airline I used work for, which was a pleasure deal pilots and was very much a enviroment where everyone put in to get a aircraft of the ground. These guys unlike are becoming tougher and tougher to deal with.
They think the airline is their's and everyone else that works there is put solely there for them. I used to feel I worked for team before I came here, the pilots got great service and trusted our decisions and still extremely professional. Now I feel like I am being treated like a bag of
S!@t. These guys are requesting the most ridiculous things, and there is nothing we can do, try explain, get nowhere, so we except and carry out such tasks. The problem is that most these drivers are young for their positions and the culture is growing, these guys arn't going anywhere to quickly so I can only see it getting worse, especially when the new guys come along and are trained to treat people in the same manner.
