i agree completely that our job is so much more than being safe. I had my coming to moment a year ago and I'll say this for certain: I'm in a much happier place having made the decision to redirect my distaste of management into something positive. I don't own a blazer and I don't wear my hat, but I do keep my uniform looking sharp and the only time I actually wear my transition jacket is to my car and on the walk around, otherwise it's over my suitcase.

I also made the decision to engage our customers more. If the captain bolts for the crew bus, I stay and thank the passengers. If the Capt stays, I don't crowd and I will leave. It has been great to see the positive vibe from the passengers, FAs and even the agents who see it. I figure the passengers pay my mortgage so the least I could do is thank them.

Like I said though, I do understand the angst, my advice would be to either retire, or just let it go.

Side note....beware: pretty sure luvswa is a troll so wouldn't divulge any excess info.
