Not bitter, just wouldn't want to see someone take a step backward if they don't have to. I worked the line back when I was finishing up my commercial and learned a lot, but I'm not sure I'd head right back to the tug after spending some time on the other end of the tow barBitter survey pilots at the end of the season are bitter... ;-)
Doing a line gig to get a discount on your CFI isn't a bad option. I worked the front desk at my flight school after I got my Comm ASEL for the discount and saved a boat load of money. It's all a means to an end. While I worked the desk they gave me a couple of paid ferrying gigs too to start to building my time.
