So a two year extension in the largest hiring boom ever in airline history is going to make this practically a non event.
I know you are going to say you got stuck at a regional longer. Probably a better deal than in 1993 when I got out of the military and me and most of my friends were either unemployed or working some crap job. So yes everybody has it tough every once and a while.
You want me to cry for you go live in the slums of Mumbai, you got nothing to cry about.
You lost your WB CA bid in 2007 and couldn't get it for five more years? Which means you've been at the top for the last eleven years and want two more beyond 65? There are plenty of people here who will never make WB CA. But you're the one who has it bad?
