Republic CEO says undercover stint opened his eyes

[Flying Illini]

He actually looks like a stereotypical male flight attendant in that get-up.

Exactly.

 

[JT12345]

Guess he had to try something to change his image.

He turned every Wisconsin politician against him, and his company after opening up his pie hole by insulting Milwaukee. Made national news. Now MKE politicians are trying to get Airtran to move their headquarters up there. lol. And Airtran is expanding rapidly in MKE for some reason.

UNDERCOVER BOSS ON NOW w/ BRYAN BEDFORD of REPUBLIC

UNDERCOVER BOSS ON NOW w/ BRYAN BEDFORD of REPUBLIC
SOMEONE is making mega $$$$. Anyone watching Undercover Boss right now see Bedford's Super Premium Mega Maxi Mansion with the basketball court, all the turrets, etc? Right before he talked about employees needing to take wage cuts in order to keep their jobs... :angryfire

The RJ business (and acquiring bigger and bigger) is doing QUITE well it seems.

Shhhh...don't tell the kool-aid pilots on here that, though.

SOMEONE is getting wealthy in this economy. (...and in typical fashion airline pilots believe the broke nonsense and keep taking pay cuts)

Oh yeah...love the born again bs too from someone who has destroyed people's careers & airlines

 

[DougCorp-9]

I just threw up in my mouth.

 

[jravi8tor]

The only basketball court I can afford now is the NERF type that clips on top of the door. Thank you for saving 400 pilot jobs at Midwest you jerkoff! I'm really glad I wasn't planning on making a career there! Sense the sarcasm. Bedford you're an A$$HOLE! If I were the cleaning lady I would've made you lick the toilets clean!!!!

 

[Voice Of Reason]

...so rather than give the completely BROKE people $$$ he sends them on vacations & gives them $ to donate to CHARITY??? Is he that far removed from their circumstances STILL????

...and then the best part...he graced the whole airline with their 10% paycut back..WELL... "over the course of the next 3 years" anyway. Doesn't even cover cost of living increases! ARGH

An hour of my life wasted to b/s

 

[Deli Guy]

What a piece of crap this guy is. All religion and family while boning the workers. Then at the end he says he is giving back the 10%, but over 3 years, which is basically a COLA! Then the sweet music plays and people cry, and he goes home to his mansion.

What he said!

 

[FlyWolf]

^^ and another what he said.

 

[FlyWolf]

I feel like puking.

 

[likeitis]

The least the show could do is not make it completely obvious that the positions and people with whom he worked were strategically picked out. This guy makes Tim Hoeksema bin Laden look like a pagan.

 

[donkeykong]

So, does he have to work for $15k/yr. and live with his mom while commuting to GRR like some of his FA's?

I mean, to REALLY get the full CHQ experience...

TC

P.S.--Hope all the CHQ people who got me (and the other ex-TWA commuters) to work IND-STL are doing ok! We miss you.

Spot on, AA717driver.

If he wants the true experience, you'd think some high speeds would be in order, with the hotel van 45 min late; etc.

And he should have to commute to MKE in Dec and Jan, since he made things so peachy for us Midwesties.

Sue and Tui are as good and better people than the show portrayed. This is the core of what Frontier is all about. Personally, i didnt even notice what Bryan was saying, i was just happy that great people like this got their say. Sorry to interrupt the hate-fest, now back to your regularly scheduled programming. Dont worry about little old Frontier, I'm sure that all of these great people will be out of work within a few months like most of you are hoping for. Cheers, bitches.

 

[FlyWolf]

^^ well guess what, all of the great employees of the once best airline in the country named Midwest are without jobs, so get over it.

 

[FlyWolf]

And, NO I am not hoping that any of the Frontier employees lose their job like we did at Midwest, just don't expect us to love your new ceo.

TuI is awesome.

In my opinion, Bryan Bedford is a liar, cheat and a con artist.

(It takes him four days on the line to realize that he needs to repay back 10% in 3 years? What a joke. What is inflation over 3% a year?)

BB, God will show you the path. You are and have used his name in vain to conquer your quest. You are only fooling the weak, desperate and people who want to kiss your rear end. Shame on you. This show only makes me wonder about your true motives. The show wasn't done for publicity? Liar. You realize now that cross utilization is bad? Then you need a new Mngmt team. You yourself paid for TUI's college fund? Hector's vacation? LIAR! First off, look at the K!$$ A$$ mngmt board you have. They are all ready to say YES to you. They look like they are scared of you. I guess you get what you pay for. I would not use any of those clowns to run an airline.

I've known Sue for 13 years, she is an awesome woman who always has a smile and hug for her coworkers.
I think this show did a very good job of portraying the dedication and professionalism of Frontier employees.

SUe is a GEM!! I HAVE NEVER EVER SEEN her complain. Her beautiful SMILE is always evident. Now, we need to put SUE in the board room. Pompous, Elitist like BB will never open their minds. In their decrepit little minds, they are always right. SO they hire robots to feed their egos. For proof, look at the mngmt team. Instead of hiring Strong, motivated mngrs, they hire ROBOTS and YES people.

Why didn't he hang out with the pilots????? That could have been some great reality TV.
