Perhaps trying hard to get out to only the legacy of their choice in their regional domicile. Trying really hard to for 15-20 years to leave a regional would’ve resulted in leaving for somewhere most likely between 2012 and 2016 at the latest and would’ve been at least the second time someone with that kind of tenure had a decent opportunity to get out. If they stuck around they weren’t trying hard or got comfortable with their place in life.

When I was attending at least a job fair a month and trying to get tickets the second they opened and standing in day long lines for a chance to talk to just one person from airlines that were only starting to hire, I was flying w guys saying that was stupid and it wasn’t worth it. Really they just didn’t want to put in the work. Same guys settling that spirit is “better than my regional”
