When I lived at my base I always tried to help commuters. Then, suddenly I became a commuter after 4 years. I guess LD would have me quit my job and find another one at the place where my airline last dumped me off...oh, but wait...there weren't any flying jobs there! And why should I have to START ALL OVER AGAIN at the bottom when I am allowed the option of commuting when I am not at the mercy of a tight a$$ed captain or a gate agent who is having a bad day? LD, you must be a real pleasure to work with.
