Talk like that gets you lumped into the AWA/AAA fiasco.

Now, on a different subject.
SWA sucks.
ohh, relax...I'm joking. You should know better then to cry in front of other pilots though. Poor SA.

Well perhaps my memory is failing me, so would you kindly repost anything that I've posted with regards to SPECIFIC expectations?

Whack, you and RCD73 may have the best of intentions by asking me to qwell my questions, but it seems you two are most vehement when others opinions don't match your own expectations of what you believe you deserve. While both of you are jumping on me for discussing carreer expectations, you two have made your own expectations quite clear through your own posts.
I believe you have every right to do so but please don't jump me for asking a couple of questions.

It's not just a windfall for them, it will cost SWA pilots seniority over time.
I urge you to read the very first post in this thread over again.
