No Airline Company grows continuously & indefinitely. When the music stops (and it always does), it sucks to be Junior, no matter what seat you are in or who you are working for.

But one needs to Stop and look around, AMR, DAL and SWA aren't growing either, UPS isn't growing. US is finally growing after many years of stagnation, and how the merger plays out with AMR remains to be seen.

Be thankful instead of bitter.
Did you have something to refute in my quote or are you just calling me bitter? Do you yell at the kids in your neighborhood to get off your lawn?
