"Other regionals, like AWAC, avoid high time guys like the plague". Interesting. Not surprising, but interesting. That says a lot about the regional gulag system. I've been on the street two years and am "high time" and haven't bothered to look into a regional because of, big surprise, pay - which is probably the reason they would avoid my plagued self. It would be difficult to prove, but it would also be a interesting lawsuit. High time correlates to older worker and discriminating for age is a very nasty pay-out upon on a judge's or jury ruling. The regionals need a lot of corrections. Welcome to the gulag.
