The time has come to let them know that the days of disrespect, abuse and contempt are over. Let them have their 'deadlines'. At this point there is not a shred of concern left in me. They have brought this situation on themselves. To try and blame the aircrew is the final evidence that they are clueless. I couldn't care less anymore what they say or think. Most of us (45 or younger) would be far better off finding a happier career elsewhere. The entire world is trying to recruit pilots, this is not the only ballgame in town. Throw AT's threat back in her face. What a farce.
