I can't imagine EVER being in corporate America again and having to kiss butt and deal with backstabbing when cuts were coming. Not over my dead body will I ever work in an office job again
Spot on. Thought of this as I checked out the other day. Like the people working the grocery stores who are making way less than us and are exposed to god knows what from the hundreds of people who they're around daily. Just like in the pax carrying world. As for seniority like you alluded to in this case for the vast majority with a military affiliation USERRA in reality only protects you if you are in a seniority based occupation. Not too many left outside of the piloting world.
