Great companies. Start as a part-time cashier or stock guy. Super benefits. I have an Ivy League degree. I am a Marine decorated combat vet and if I was not already doing two military related jobs besides airline reserve, I'd apply for that job. Who knows? You move up one of those companies and you just might kick this airline work to the curb. Reserve is a great time to figure out what else you like to do for work. It might make for a better life.
