Doesn’t mean the CA is 30. I see new hires each month in their 50s.
Regardless, any FO that would be upset because they themselves didn’t take the chance and upgrade in SFO, then base trade back to DEN is, in my opinion, unjustified in feeling that way.
Whoever it was that took the upgrade in SFO and got a base trade back to DEN, gambled and got really lucky. Everyone out there with his seniority had the same opportunity.
Reminds me of my dogs, food falling out of their mouths, yet looking at what the other dog is eating.
