Default Feel so stupid sometimes

So, I work for TSA. I can't complain too badly, I was hired out of a Cessna 172 with 750 hours into a jet and have had a pretty good run for the 14 months I've been here. However, with 10 birds going back to Eagle and the downsizing, etc, I am just waiting for my furlough notice. When I get it, I don't even know if I'll ever be called back because the 50 seaters are being phased out. I wouldn't be surprised of TSA as a brand gets phased out and any growth occurs on the GoJet side.

Meanwhile, a friend of mine works for Comair, and switched from the CRJ-200 to the -700/-900 and received an appropriate pay raise and it looks like he'll be escaping the furlough too. He was hired with Comair AFTER I was hired at TSA.

Why did I stay at TSA? I should have gotten a few hundred hours jet time and switched to a better company. My future would be looking a lot brighter right now.

Gotta stay positive....
