I've got too many years in to bother moving on. I'm sure you've met some lifer Captain types at Jetlink that feel the same way. By the way, I don't want this company to simply limp along until I am "done" with it only to ultimately fail. I sincerely hope that every half-winger has a more stable and lucrative career than I have had. Our current state of mediocrity puts us all at an elevated risk level.
Couldn't agree more. The current state of UAL is worse than I ever seen. I am a 95 hire, and don't want to start over at another carrier. I am starting the process to go back to flying contracts. I don't think anybody has a great career expectation here, and I am putting my future where my mouth is.

I cannot effect change at UAL. I can only effect change in my life.
