Success story...
Talked to my buddy the other day who is a 170 CA, and must say I am quite impressed with his career progression. He got hired at 21, upgraded on the 170 at 23, and now at just over 26 he has 2000 PIC in the 170.. oh ya.. and he just got hired by SWA.. at barely 26 years of age.
So for all the doom and gloom being posted on this and other boards, it was nice to see a close friend "make it".. at least for now
