We all wish it would, but many have been waiting for around a decade for that to happen. I for one am at least looking at something I know I can make the income I need to give my family the life we want.
If I was as young as you, I would leave for either SWA or FDX as soon as I could. They make a lot more money than you think, and they have a great deal of time off. Enough time off for you to run a good SB as well.
My 2 cents.
