One of my friends that I had pointed to in the past as a success story has just announced that he is interviewing with SWA. If this guy is leaving then I'd call that the final nail in the coffin. My current co-worker who came over from CBP said that this guy was as gung-ho and hard working as they come and he knew he was getting fed-up with basically feeling like he was alone in pulling the load for the rest of the office.
So freaking sad to hear, but maybe it was fate in the end that I didn't go that route like I wanted too.
