On one hand, I would like the additional growth and job security. On the other, I certainly don't want it at the expense of someone losing their jobs or going back to first year pay, like Skyway. Like someone else said, how long will it be before it is me worrying about losing my job? If getting expressjet meant upgrades, who wouldn't want it? But at the expense of someone losing their jobs, I would rather not know that I am flying an airplane at the expense of someone who is now on the street.

I have come to believe that it is all a crap shoot. A year ago, Trans States is running one year upgrades and now those guys are back in the right seat. From what I have seen in three years in the 121 world, it is all luck.

So to answer your question I believe is a catch 22.
