First of all congratulations compadre Bluebaron, I wish there would be more like you. The extend to which pilots will sell their souls never seizes to amaze me but there are a few of us that not only think like you but that have indeed lived by that creed, that has caused me some opportunities and quite frankly gave me wide body command a decade later than I should have gotten it but I have no regrets and would not change any of the times that I told some suit to "shove it" just to watch the next guy take the job for less money that was offered to me, at the beginning of my career I flew corporate and that was a regular occurrence, and at the airlines? well, we all know that the airlines are full of the loud mouths that raise hell in the company forum just to go behind everybody's back and "brown nose" for an RTC position, you know the type that should have stickers on their bags that read "my ass speaks for me" But I have been blessed with a wife that is ready at a moments notice to go to war (sort of speak) and like she said recently, "jobs are a dime a dozen but the image on the mirror is only one"
