Or how about something simpler.... one of the main reasons companies choose not to hire people is because a candidate wouldn't be a good fit for the company for whatever reason. Is it hard to imagine that some people may feel the same way about the company?
So his concern about the past didn't occur? The 'lost decade' didn't happen to the recent new hires?
His n/b relative seniority will accelerate as a greater percentage of the guys senior to him transition to w/b flying. That's a factor when you compare a purely n/b final seniority progression vs a seniority progession that includes w/b flying. If you only want to fly n/b 85-90% of the guys senior to you will leave the n/b flying. So retiring as #2000 will even more senior as a n/b CA. Current #2000 is #149 system wide as a 737 CA.
