You're here posting as well and complaining and disputing it, so does that mean your "entire life is wrapped up in it"? Do I really occupy that much space in your head? Should I be paying rent to you?
My first 6 years at United were pretty fun, but it went downhill pretty soon after that. Its been very nice the last decade or so and with just under 5 years left there is nothing wrong with being proud of being at an airline that's being run the way we always though an airline should be run. Also everything I posted was a cut and paste from both United's and Delta's earnings reports.
So yes, I'm proud and excited, but mostly for the younger pilots who will have a much better career experience than I had overall, and much better than my friends hired 3-5 years after me from 1998-2000 who were furloughed and/or stagnated for over a decade. I just don't want to see any pilot have that happen to them.
