Bar,
FedEx I can agree with, Emirates not so much. Hands down they make better money, but it's not worth it to live in that region.
As I was once told you will never know if you made the right decision until you retire. When I got hired, lates 90s, American and United were they place to go. I only applied there and NWA. Hired by 2 with an interview at the third after I took the offer from NWA. Did I make the right decision? Who knows in hindsight I should have at least applied at Delta and should have taken up offers from friends and family to help me get on at FedEx. But that's today's picture who knows what it will be 10 years from now.
Bar I would not know you if I saw you but the way you come across on the interweb is as a bit of a whiner. From the time I have started following this board you have said that you are going to quit Delta for either a some oppertunity you have going or to go somewhere else. Life is too short Bar, if you truly hate it here so much move on.
You have some great ideas and insight and if I am reading you wrong my apologies.
