Then there was a ridiculously long drought on those position and/or they went senior for a long time after. This wouldn't have been an issue if they simply had a bid in.

BWYWWWYB. Also, commuting is a choice that the company prefers you don't do. Oh, and the company owns the jumpseat. Oh, and the military produces the best pilots and recruiting your squadron mates is the best way to broaden the ranks. Oh, and we're better than the average airline pilot. Any other Delta stereotypes of old that we missed?
News flash. The kids don't care about tradition. They do what they want and what's best for them. Groundbreaking.
