They believe they're giving you a PHD in Aviation, it's really just a BS like all the rest, but they like to think they have it all figured out.

If you REALLY want to stay in the PNW, then this is a Co for you. Otherwise I'd suggest hitting them all (But NEVER tell AS that.)

Good Luck, Baja.
That's some funny [stuff] Baja. I have to say.... you have some things right but not all. When we had a sim eval back in the day, it was 50% "can you fly" and the rest was [roses]. Seriously bud, all airline interviews these days are run by the HR folks. I'm sure Delta isn't too different. I'm glad that you finally get to drive to work. Alaska[] Air[lines] is a perfect fit for most of us who prefer to live on the left coast. As much as I [whine] about this place, it's a pretty good place to work. Nothing is perfect in life as you know. I just hope Delta doesn't buy us or I too will be full of [love] and vinegar like you.
