I've heard it literally a thousand times now. Update your logbook and apply somewhere else. I could NOT. CARE. LESS. about your DFW base or sweet three days of the past.

but not really, I had a guy that could have been a street captain have the balls to tell me how bad he had it as a six year FO, by choice.

::nominates self for tool of the day::
Sounds like every 4 day I get too. The vast majority of non reserve captains I fly with are now self described "lifers" and have drank the masses drank the Kool-Aid about being cost effective and are scared ****less of losing more flying to Gojets. This is all thanks to the 3 year North Korean style brainwashing and censorship where every email and update put out by the company talked about how we have to be cost effective, cut costs, control costs, etc, they now are all convinced that if we get too much in this contract they will sink with the ship.

Has anyone heard the only FO on the negotiating committee was "replaced" and now the most junior pilot on it is 11+ years at the company? Gee, I wonder what part of the pilot group will come out on top yet again..
