In hindsight, you can say it was a poor choice cause it didn't work out, but luck of the draw is really what it's about.
Don't forget about the New York Air guys that now sit ontop of the CAL list. Going to a startup can be very benificial to a career, but it can completely backfire. This scenario is basically the definition of risk. Often the more there is to gain the more you can lose. This decision didn't work out well for SkyHigh. The signs and information available might have pointed toward a great career with National, but it backfired. He wanted a career at a major and he didn't get it, he made the wrong choice. This isn't necesarily a reflection on Sky's decision making abilities, but unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how SkyHigh looks at it) in hindsight it was a "poor" decision.

I agree 100%
