There is only one reason Genny comments on threads like this...

It's an angle for him to have a good dig at the Southwest. Could it have been done differently? Sure. Does that matter now? Not really.

I'm sure Genny will be railing on this for several more years, even though the agreement was done almost 3 years ago now. Don't be fooled, he's never cared about AirTran guys before. But know he sees an opening against the SW guys..so he tries stoke the fire.

He's been pissed at SW for over a decade, and that's just 'NUTS'.
 
There is one thing that has proven certain in this business.

There will always be something like deregulation, the Gulf War, and 9/11 that will throw the legacies into a tail spin because although they feel good right now, they are not in a position to weather such horrible affects to our industry.

But SWA is in the position to go on without the fear of bankruptcy, furloughs, etc.

It is just a matter of time Jenny will change its tune.

Wow, we gotta modern day Dr. Joyce Brothers here..... Except she's a HE, and He eats disgusting quesadillas at the Lubbock La Quinta....

I was a bit skeptical when I first heard that SWA and AT were going to merge, but I hoped that it would be a "good" merger for everyone involved. I thought the Cornies had watched a couple before their's, consisting of one "right" way ( DL/ NW) and one "wrong" way (US/AWA). After watching the results of each, I was sure the Corndogs would figure out the way to strengthen their group, and make it an even tougher competitor.

But nooooooooooo. They had to pull shenanigans, get greedy, and then treat the other side like second rate pilots. That's why I revist this topic Joyce. I don't like bullies. And I know many AT guys here in ATL. They can't wait to commute to OAK and LAS when they eventually upgrade back into their previous seat....

And the best part Joyce is that you and Bubba can't see the WRONG that was imposed on the AT guys/gals. I hope you both eventually do. Stop the excuses! Exorcise the demons! Hallelujah!

Life is not always about you.

Actually, it is. It's about making the most money for the least amount of work possible, and having a reasonably good time with my coworkers while I'm doing it.

None of this rah rah Gary is Great culture warriors going the extra mile nonsense, though. That boat sailed a few years ago. Now it's just a job like many others.

I completely disagree.

SWA has always chosen people enjoyable to work with and will continue to do so.

Although the five year upgrades would eventually be something of the past, SWA has never been financially better because of Gary.

And that is the good news to many of us.

Wow. That might be the cockiest post I have ever read. Good luck on never having a problem, ever......

What flavor Kool-Aid are you guzzling? You can't get enough. You are actually choking! It looks like you are choking on your own vomit! Yikes!

Somebody help SWAdude! He's choking! Oh wait, he surrounded by AT guys.... Never mind..... So, who's got his eulogy? I do, here it goes:

"SWAdude....was....uhhhh.... A dude....I think? He was.... Uhhhhh.... Passionate about his company... And.....uhhhh...I think he was a dude, but maybe he wasn't. Usually that problem only happens with his best buddy Redflyer. Anyways......Amen!"

That was just weird.
 
You saying I have the cockiest post ever?!?!?!?

Do you read your own crap?


Uhhhhhhh, it's debating the merits of how the AT guys were treated. Why do you think that is crap? It's time to treat them better.

That may be so. I've certainly enjoyed flying with people here.

But surely even you will admit that the blind worship of the company on SWALife is downright creepy at times. As for me, it really doesn't matter what Gary and his buddies do now. I just show up, do my job, have a good time, pick up a few easy premium trips for the money, and then go home.

Okay, I will admit that I keep up with the contract negotiations. Max pay to the last day, I say. :)

Thats all I have done, and most all I know who have been here for over 20 years now. Why would things change?

Genny,

Honest question...how long are you going to keep posting the same items year after year, after year? Don't you get tired of posting the same old BS everyday...for 20 thousand post? That's the psychotic part that you plainly don't understand. Oh, and hint...it doesn't take a PHD to see how strange you've become over the years. Adding NOTHING of value. Nothing.

Why do you care? You never gave a rats arse about the AirTran guys before. As a matter of fact, you looked down on them in ATL for years. Your concern is a complete joke....and pretty much everyone sees that for what it is. EXCEPT YOU!

Debating merits? Please. You have ZERO credibility, even though you try to feign some outrage.

It's a complete fabrication to allow you another anti-Southwest topic. That's it. No substance.

Representing SWA on this forum, and I said something like that, I would be concerned about what could happen to me with our social media policy. Does Delta have one too? Never mind, I know they do. And I have recently learned that it is possible for anyone to know ones true identities on these forums.

Sleep well.

You've been here longer than me, so you would know more about it than me, but the impression I always had was that this company was like a big family always looking out for each other and taking care of the employees. Now I know better; the creepy people on SWALife worship management, but most of us know that the company couldn't care less about individuals. You're a number, an asset to be used, and thrown away if it helps the bottom line.

Nothing has changed for the worse. Herb was fun. But things are better now than they were when I got hired over 20 years ago.

Don't get caught up in the folklore.

Wow! Really? I never said I represent DL, and this is an anonymous board. Sorry, you're ridiculous. Where again does it say I fly for DL anywhere on my avatar? It doesn't. I'm just a big fan. Have a great night!

Well you are not screwed if you are not a DL pilot. But if you are, which granted you may not be, your narrow minded, narcissistic view of life has never processed that we are all potential customers too.

Your name, and these posts, could be troublesome.

Just saying.

Oh whatever! I could be a SWA customer, and now I'm crying.... Gimme a break. If you can't debate, then let it go. This is an anonymous board that has fictitious names. If you can't take a little "ribbing" then that is "troublesome." It sounds like you guys can't handle the truth. And unlike Redflyer with the Corndog 737 on his avatar, there isn't anything representing DL on mine. I'm just a big fan.
