"Big men" in aviation

[pitottubey]

Toxic Masculinity and Drama….some pilots seem to live for both. Not at all uncommon in any “Type A” filled jobs. Ever work on a construction site? You’d think you were in scenes of real housewives.

Toxicity isn't limited to just men you know... including in the workplace. This term is sexist

The other thing about the guys complaining about the company was in general....the better they had it(money, schedule), the more they badmouthed the management.

Ya cause they the ones been around and dealing with BS for the longest!

Sounds a lot like avcanada.

From my own perspective (not working in commercial aviation, but coming in contact with a lot of the people you describe), I get the impression that the complainers get stuck in their position, while the competent/reasonable/nice people move up to the airlines and corporate aviation flying the rich people around.

Anyway, my suggestion is to be friendly to everyone but ignore the BS as much as possible.

Very true. I can count on 1 hand the number of people I don’t like sharing a flight deck with at WJ.

“The competent/reasonable/nice people move up to the airlines”

What a ridiculous thing to say. Let me help you off that horse of yours.

Some of the industries biggest egos/gods gifts and dare I say miserable people work at the airlines. Some of the industries best people make a career up North and love it.

I’ve done both. and no matter where you go you will find someone with an ego the size of Texas. Take yourself for example and your belief that incompetent, unreasonable, and rude people make careers out of 703/704 in Canada

Sorry, what?

I said I've worked with very few people in the airlines that I didn't like and you conclude that I'm on a high horse?

[Goodman5]

You agreed with CpnCrunch’s ridiculous comment so yes, you were also included in my response.

[DanWEC]

HA! This is the most AVCanadaesque post I've ever seen. Where else can you find a person who will shit on someone for saying they enjoy flying with most of their colleagues??

I guess we've found ourselves exhibit A...
