And I’m not being dramatic either. Especially prior to Covid you’d go to college to get garbage jobs like this.

The reason I was asking because again from outside looking in coming from my work history and background working at a regional airline now making what the new salaries are for the regionals sounds better than doing the 9-5 CSR job and I wanted to get an insight from people inside of the industry
