Corp question  

What I've seen is that they like to hire their buddies that will follow their lead and not rock the boat.  They sell the myth that NYC is the toughest airspace in the world and their the top 2% of the RW world.  Funny you never hear FW guys make such a statement.  It's controlled airspace in which you fly from a known to a known.  Usually dual pilot with advanced machines and autopilot.  My expereience is that they hire to their level or less.  Disguises their incompetance.  IMO, the corporate world could use more "outsiders" and dual rated pilots.  

Corp pilots really seem to have disdain for anything over 8 hours duty day.  Listen and you'll here them tell each other how great they are and how hard their job is.  Put them in the gulf for a few weeks or in the middle of nowhere slinging trash or water.  Bet they wouldn't last 2 weeks.
