The command obsession I bet is long gone at QF. Over there people know the score. Many went to Jetstar (MOU) did the left seat thing and went back to QF for lifestyle.
It's mathematics, it's reality that's life! Sooner or later you get over it and enjoy what you have, stop chasing and start enjoying. Problem is that the obsession is entrenched. You can't go to a check without hearing "when you come up for your command". It's a nice thought but no longer realistic.
