Go43,
Read my original post again. I am not ridiculing or even mocking the first poster, I am expressing my frustration at the sense of entitlement that the younger generation of pilots seems to have. Most pilots I know would not consider 3800 hours as particularly experienced. I do admit to not knowing what total time the OP has.
You may be right that my post was not particularly helpful but perhaps, if we all followed the same path, instead of trying to buck the system, our industry T and Cs would not be in the crapper.
Even though I am still only an FO after my pitiful 12000 hours, I am generally happy with my lot. It appears that you cannot say the same and for that, I feel sorry for you.
