Those people were around in your day, but they just dropped out after private or instrument to become police officers (some cases air Marshalls) nurses, or multi level marketers. Thier heart wasn't in it, or at the very least thier patience to persevere through years of poverty for a chance at a big pay day wasn't present. They chose the path of least resistance. The assertive language used by this group back then sounds very similar to the conversations I have with the Instagram pilots who have more followers than hours and see it as unjust that thier 2000 hours can't get them a legacy class date.
The dark decade (and a half) sucked that way.

I've had more than one coversation with ones that expressed the "man, I don't know how you guys did it. I probably would have quit and done something else"
May you never reach the age (if not yet) when just on age spread, you could be your FO's dad.

I am honestly over these threads of QOL of this vs. that. Especially at your age and the state of spirit right now. I have literally wrote three LOR for guys from NK that are half to double your age yesterday. The fact is until you have a CJO in hand these questions and answers don’t matter. The key at this point is to get the interview and then the CJO and make a decision. I left there over two years ago and it’s the best decision I have ever made. Whether you come here go to AA or even WN. Apply to them all and go from there. Your main question should be Who should I be contacting about reviewing my resume and getting ready for an interview not should I stay at spirit in this environment. I loved spirit, but job security and your career is more important than asking a million questions and about reserves when you don’t even have to make the decision yet.
same , I just wrote letters for friends that have been at spirit for 10 years and 1 for a Frontier guy who’s been there 9.
your overthinking the entire decision iMO . Minus the AA part in DFW. That’s a tough decision , commuting kills the soul.
