Careful with that theory, that's what I did when I was first hired there. Long story, but I almost didn't apply but then couldn't pass up the pay and bennies (retirement in particular) when they offered the job.
Destroying careers may be a little harsh, but if you go there without full qualifications for other positions (for when they furlough you and you're getting older with a full dose of airline stink) it does ring kinda true. Good luck.
