I mostly was just laughing at how a majority of your posts are some wild opinion or unsubstantiated rumor designed to rattle cages.
It's mildly entertaining. Cheers!

Give anyone enough time, and the truth comes out. Sounds like your a fully entrenched management troll.

Hindsight being 20/20, the convoluted path I took looked like a good choice at the time, but a steady course would have been better. I made it, but Southern didn't get me to the brass ring faster than driving an RJ would have. In my newhire class at UAL for every supplemental guy, there were ten RJ guys. And they were younger.

Or you could get a class A CDL and drive a big rig across the country. You'll be home about the same number of nights. You'd make about the same amount of money. Plus you would save over $100,000 in training costs, and no degree required.
And you get to listen to George Strait while you're doing it.
