As did the guys hired in late 91 and 92 after their furlough.
When you're hired at the back end of a wave (over 3000 pilots hired in the south between 1996-2001 in the south) you won't have nearly the same career as the guys hired at the front of it. As pointed out, you could always look at the career stagnation of all those airlines that furloughed over the last 5 years.
