It would be nice to leave this so-called "major airline" ( now degraded to a commodity business) several years early and work a few years for a good company before leaving the industry.

It is uncommon to read about a large US airline which makes the conscious (so-called "upper mgmt") decision to put its people first, along with the passengers.
Few large airline upper mgmts here deserve to have the words begin with capital letters. But some of the damage to careers is not caused only by upper mgmts.

Unfortunately, the pilot union leaders are typically widebody pilots who allow their narrowbody 'brothers/sisters' to live with the unreasonable results of their negotiations, resulting in far fewer negative influences on the lives of those widebody pilots.

They even screw up the lives of narrowbody pilots to a larger degree, when they are allowed to create unnecessary changes to computer bidding.
AGAIN, not all, but certain widebody "perfumed princes" in charge of our lowly, peasant, narrowbody lives. When will such irresponsible actions end?

I'm quite ready and willing to join a narrowbody mutiny, if a steely-eyed leader with the appropriate skills will step up and begin the battle here.
