If I can commute from the east coast to LA for over a year, your friend will probably survive another few months.
His post wasn’t trying to elicit sympathy so I’m not sure why you felt the need to make it about your trials. They were seimply clarifying that getting Phoenix right out of training isn’t always accurate.

It's called quibbling. Most guys HAVE been getting PHX right out of training. If it has gone slightly more senior and someone actually has to wait for it a month or two, WHILE ABLE TO RESERVE HIS 45 MINUTE COMMUTES ON COMPANY METAL A WEEK AHEAD OF TIME, it really doesn't seem like a big enough deal to people - many of whom have been somewhere that they had to commute to RESERVE for six months early in their career - to make a whiny complaint like that in that sarcastic a tone.

Fortunately, I fell into getting my base of choice AND A LINE the month after IOE, but I at least realize how fortunate I was to have that happen and how truly rare that is, and I'm not going to quibble with a guy who is basically giving a newbie the best advice he can. I may be opinionated - Hell, I'm TOTALLY opinionated - but I'm not a total jerk.
