.....you sound like a newhire that believes that management has your best interest in hand!
That part, perhaps more than ANY other single element, has most completely amazed me throughout all of this. Precious few conditions allow for reasonable explanation, none of which are especially flattering:
1) "Golly Garsh!...Look at me! Top of the world Mom!..Wow! Whoda' EVER thunk it could happen!!?....You'se should know 'dat I are finally a 'airline pilot', so I'll cheerfully kiss the arse of the only place that'd hire me!"
2) "Stupid is as stupid does". Forrest Gump. "I'm so incredibly stupid that I actually believe that "Doug" is a first-name-basis, umm.."friend"...although even Mr. Gump would've seen through that BS 🙂
3) Other than the above?....Well....Ya' ("You'se"?) 🙂, just plain got me there coach, as I can only see the slightest possible "sense" for such an incredibly bizarre fantasy in either 1) or 2) above, or both combined.
Oh well..What's the use?
