I feel that way when I sell a stock too soon. But that’s a fallacy because it could easily have fallen just as hard the next day. You just don’t know. Same with our industry. Getting that Seniority number faster is more critical and each year you don’t move is another year you missed upgrade and another year you’re not at 12 yr captain pay when closer to retirement. And last I checked, unless you’re getting the wild check airmen pay at regionals, our 12 yr captain pay was still hella better and will be even more so when we get our new contract. You PROBABLY made the right choice even if you intend on leaving for another carrier.
