One of the best quotes ever!

Which one are you thinking of for a west coaster?
And if you are young enough, don't forget the flow. In the meantime just keep applying for OTS hiring. Win-Win!

The truth is Y1 here is tough and ugly. And Indigo has made it harder by delaying necessary pay increases. When you look at F9 you simply have to decide if you can outlast Indigo. If you have 30 years left, you'll probably do very well for yourself at F9. If you have 5 years left, you'd do better somewhere else. If you have the ability to come and outlast the owners (who have been very vocal about making a profit and getting out quickly) then the long-term potential makes F9 more attractive.
Alas, to each his own. Set goals, make plans, stay the course. In the economy of 2016 it won't take long to land that dream job.
