"You are the sole person on this entire forum who truly has hit it big and has it made."

Oh Please....

It ain't just little old me....

Every one of this site's leadership has made the big time while you walked away. I'd say each Fedex and UPS pilot has made it to the big house while you decided it wasn't worth your time.

In fact, anyone who is happy with the choice to stick with the career "has hit it big". Each person has their own "hit it big" scale based on their personal opinion. What's worthy to one person might not be worthy to Sky.

Honestly, in spite of Sky's rants, I don't personally know one person who wouldn't do it over. And that includes Aloha's, Mesa's, America West's, Delta's, UPSers, and several guys that keep emailing me at the regionals.

As low as the cycle has gone, there are those who find it worth their time to be optimistic for the future. One of those guys will have my job in 12 years....
