Ive read this thread about a year ago and I wanted to talk about the topic. I pulled up this one instead of creating a new one.

Re: Direct entry captain VS Internal promotion
Of course people are pissed about it, it's human nature after all, who wants to be passed over for a promotion? Having said that all were professional and the days went by harmoniously.northernpilot2 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 4:13 pmIm just curious if you came across any disgruntled FO's or was it just me with that one guy? I was hired as DEC at my previous company. At my current one I was upgraded from the FO position and most seem happy about it. There are still a few people pissed about it but oh well. I still try to get along with them but they chose not to, so it's really beyond my control.
Attempting to understand the world. I have not succeeded.

There are 700 FOs at WJ with more qualifications then what the Swoop ad is advertising for DEC so I don't Know if I'd wanna be one of those guys robbing us of our future! won't be a whole lot of respect for that blacklisted bunch of guys.

This right here is probably the most correct thing that has ever been posted to this forum, and sums up the reasoning perfectly.confusedalot wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 7:37 pm A direct entry is merely a stopgap measure until things fall into place, and the system reverts to normal. In the mean time, non upgradable FO's get more time and progress to upgradable FO's, and then they become Captain.
