Low bar for command
I remember my father complaining about a similar thing in the 1980’s. ‘No one has large multi engine taildragger experience anymore.
I remember complaining myself in the 2010’s about no one having analogue jet experience anymore.
I guess Orville complained no one had bicycle experience.

I think you are correct. It's an incredible coincidence that all pilots that are even just slightly junior to oneself are inferior. Yet those more senior are either past it, or of similar experience. Originally Posted by T54A

Perhaps somehow tied up with how Coriolis works?
“The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.”

Do you not consider that the massive bonus more than compensates you in terms of increased pay. It’s not like you are worrying about increasing utility bills or transport costs getting to and from work.Originally Posted by POTATOW
3% basic (contractual step), and 5% hourly pay increase. No housing or education allowance increase. A big fat zero after 2 consecutive record profits. Still 5 steps behind on the contract after 15 years, and no real basic salary raise since 2011. I’m thankful for the bonus, but what a slap in the face. Nobody even had the cahonas to sign their name to the email this time 🤣
It must be very hard for you. Maybe you could get a go fund me page going.
