Maybe it's is a toss up on the cabin crews. Our product doesn't have to be inferior.

Mostly just crabby?? Since I’ve been here for 6ish months, I’ve been overall disappointed with gate agents. Happy ones are few and far between. Just reporting my experience.
It seems if ur mad at work all day cuz u don’t like people(people are arse holes), then get a different job.

PS at Delta for gate agents has seemed to make a big difference in attitudes over the last decade.
May just be a coincidence but correlation seems strong. That and the fact that firing a bad gate agent (or reassigning then) is probably easier at DAL.

I have the opposite problem of you, we thought about moving to CLT when I got hired, and moved home to Colorado instead. Now the kids are well established and we are tied in. I regret it every day.
You won’t commute from CLT for 20 years...that’s not mathematically possible, unless they close the base or shrink it rapidly. The problem is, it’s still being affected by the integration. LAA guys want it and new hires that were on the LAA side senior to you want it, and they seem to have shrunk the flying a bit. It won’t be forever though.
