Senior FO's don't want to fly with their favorite captain? 
Remember that time in late 2016 when a good number of senior FO's were bypassing waiting for better seniority and suddenly Compass stopped hiring and upgrading for 6 months? I'm not saying it's going to happen again, but it certainly could...

Bypassing at an unstable regional is a huge mistake. Get those PIC hours, that’s what matters. Not to mention DL and UA have specifically said at hiring events that they “want to see that you’re taking that upgrade as soon as you can”.
Get onto the seniority list at your dream company, then drop to min hours as a senior FO all you want. This isn’t the place for that
Look at me, east coast commuting to a crashpad instead of doing 2 commutable 6-day trips a month. Of course it’s awful but at least I’ll leave compass with something worthwhile in my airlineapps

Official word from Planning is they didn’t have eligible bidders for a class.

Big mistake homie. You could have turned their entire (pilot) snack basket program around, increasing morale and applications. Once the big 5 caught wind of your results they would have been fighting for you.

Ha! Thanks homie.. We just gotta keep trying and enjoy the ride. It's too bad IPA doesn't hold the keys to the hiring.. I had a whole pitch ready to deliver about starting a snack basket committee within IPA..

Ha that's exactly when/how I upgraded. Even though I'm still a CA-in-Training and sat reserve for a good bit, it was worth it. But... I'm still here so there's that.. lol. When UPS turned me down, I was in a bad place emotionally. So I applied to Atlas one night at 3 am. They e-mailed right away, but I was feeling better by then so I didn't respond.
You gave Atlas the “you up?” snapchat at 3am
