A little surprised at some of the posts. It's like standing on railroad tracks at the end of a tunnel and there's a bright white light in the distance. Some will say it could be the moon. The moon can cast a bright white light depending on the phase and angle relative to the Earth's horizon. Or it could be a really bright flashlight. Someone could be walking there with a commercial grade large white flashlight. Or it could be a maintenance light. Tunnels have white lights for maintenance personnel and it likely could be it. Or it could be a bright flare left by someone and that is the bright white light.
All of these neglect the most obvious (but somehow oblivious) that the bright white light is from a Streamliner locomotive named 'the Delta Express' coming full speed ahead and the brakes have failed long ago. Those who have moved off the tracks are not chiding you but trying to advise that jumping from the current track is still the best course of action and it's not worth staying on it.

What really scares Shy is that people who came to 9e get to a legacy before he does. So if one of his 9e contemporaries interviews through the SSP and gets a CJO before he can get to a legacy carrier then he will feel like he lost.

This is the truth. He definitely needs a life. Many people that were Jr to him here have already gone to majors.

I'm not gunning for a legacy. I like working where I am. With the IPO done hopefully things get interesting for the better in the future. As for the SSPs they are senior CAs and nearly all have 10 or more years of service at 9E/XJ/9L. If they can get to Delta then more power to them. It continues the trend in the right direction.
