Skewer what, seems like a well written essay to me.
It points out that aviation has become more complex, and the crews less visible. The change in profile in cabin crew has changed with society in general, and that some older pilots don't like the transition from a more pure handling job to something closer to a systems management job - whilst still having to be highly trained, away from home a lot, and responsible.
As What Vortex said, an interesting read.
