He/she is upset they got pigeonholed by United for being at SkyWest (United Express) and they’re venting their frustration… publicly…

Same reason why ex Envoy/PSA/Piedmont pilots now at United lurk on the AA threads for opportunities to toss shade. Same reason that Ex Comair guy now at AA randomly gaslights on the Delta threads… they’re upset about what should/could have been.

To the OP—it is what it is. You will absolutely be commuting to the east coast for a while before you start driving to work. That sounds terrible—I’d suck up the ego and keep updating your apps at United. If you can’t do that I’d move—Denver is extremely overrated anyway.
