I got hired more than 23 years ago and I'm still several years short of WB CA.
Talk about being impatient!

I'm not like him as I actually do GAF about the JR pilots.

Look up his post history. His first post was looking for an interview prep course back in Aug 21

Even with 787 deliveries, those 767s will likely be flying until the next downturn. They're making money.

I recall hearing that they'd be around until 2030ish.
I'm sure there's a detailed phase out plan.

Yup. They’ll keep grinding them until the next down turn, then it’ll be an easy cost reduction to make/park.

Actually his first post was shilling for a company which conducts interview prep. He also claimed he was a military guy and all his military buds used the company he was shilling for and just wanted the civilian guys to know there was this outstanding company that all his military buds used.

if you read his old posts he doesn’t sound like he was ever in the military. His whining on this thread is indicative of that as well.
