Your analysis couldn't be further from the truth.
I have friends currently at as well as furloughed from TSA. I've helped some ex-waterskiiers get jobs, and had some help me with leads as well. I don't have any problem whatsoever with TSA, but I have a huge issue with GoJetters and the way Hulas treats his employees.
I had an offer from TSA and I made a choice to not go there, based upon compensation, career expectations and the GoJet situation. I had other (yes, better) options that I chose to exercise at the time, and realize that if I had decided to burn my bridges and go to TSA I would currently be on the bottom of the seniority list, making less money than I am now, feeling the pain of the whipsaw first hand.
Its not pride or smugness or anything of the sort, just the facts as I experienced them. YMMV
