Cry us all a river, don. Be happy that "your" issues are now everyone's.
Yay! Right?
But the difference is, of the people who joined in spite of your infinite wisdom in the early 2000's, many still did very well. Long hours on your fleet, forced relocations may have been around - but so were quick commands and decent rosters back then and for quite a few years after that.
Now? Not so much. Talk to anyone and the honeymoon period is shorter and shorter - FO resignations outpacing captains for a start. 2015 is not 2003, now matter how you want to spin it for your "I told you so" moment. Those joining now are joining a completely different animal.
