I think we already have all captains and future captains for these new planes on property unless there's mass attrition.

There are only like 50 FOs are eligible for upgrade. There are a ton of FOs that are a long way from upgrade time.

Quick upgrade is to be had at TSA. Especially when our second code share is announced and the rest of the XRs are announced.

Nowhere does it say on any press release you're getting XR's. But please, continue to gloat over a quick upgrade.

Well, excuse us for being happy on our own thread. Is there an industry rule against happy pilots?

That stepping stone is real short when you get terminated from one, no?

Since you want to follow me around and mudsling, I'll bring it to your thread. It was a short stepping stone for me. I took that EMB-145 rating, and a am using it to make more money than I'd be making at TSA year two, and soon more than I'd be making as a captain, with a better QOL for me.
