I've seen and heard a lot of how Mesa pilots themselves were loading luggage because the rampers were working on other flights.
I guess I never thought that having employees who would pitch in and do whatever needed to be done, and had a high work ethic, was such a severe disadvantage that it would doom a company "from the start". I thought that having employees who wouldn't do anything because "it's not my job" would be more likely to doom a company.
