I'm of the opinion that NOTHING will convince you people that not all of us hit the lottery. Pulleeeez, get over yourselves and this often times silly airline.

SWA pay rates
The SWA rates are in TFP...so you'd need to multiply them further by 1.13 to make it hourly.
The previous statement "fairly senior CA"...anymore senior than about 7-8 years you'd be a CA at SWA already.
So even assuming 7 year CA pay rates, can you clarify how it was a 25% pay hit for you?
