--No disrespect to anyone that has interviewed recently. I really am glad you are here, just wondering why the change in heart of so many. We were a punching bag not too long ago.

When you have bills to pay and other obligations, folks will swallow thier pride to make ends meet, then as soon as something else opens up, they'll leave.

Most if not all of the regionals have stopped hiring and 2 are about to furlough. This not a good time to be in this industry right now, specially if your low time.
