    FRONTLINE - United Bankruptcy

    Some of the things that used to attract workers to companies are fast dissappearing. Job security, stability and pensions are all a thing of the past. Might not be a bad idea to pull up stakes at Corporation X and start your own company to run the way you see fit.

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    Landscaping is honorable work. I've done a lot of it in the distant past and would do it again if necessary to earn a living. Something insulting about working for a living?

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    OK everyone. I've promised to knock off the anti UAL rhetoric out of respect for the real UAL line pilots that read this stuff and get upset. I've explained myself privately to a few of them with varying degrees of success. The short story is I like pissing off the management pukes who read and...

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    Actually that's a real comment from a real potential customer that is PCSing with the USAF and plans to bring his family and dog over after school lets out. I have not verified it personally although I'm curious enough to check it out. With all the resources of the internet people simply don't...

    Does this mean you won't be walking my application in?

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    In all that post there wasn't one comment supporting UAL and their actions in bankruptcy. Just more personal attacks. Is UAL going to survive more than a few more years? Given the way they conduct business I doubt it. Personal.....maybe for you but I have no doubt you and your coworkers can find...

    what to do about a dangerous captain

    Excellent point. When you go to the CP be sure you're doing everything you can to work professionally with this guy. In this business part of safety is working well with your crewmembers. Tension in the cockpit just isn't safe. Ask for advice from the CP on how to get along with this guy. I'd...

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    Once again.....no response except personal attacks. When you can't defend UAL you might as well attack the critics. You guys starting to charge for snacks now? Oil is $75/barrell now....how's it going?

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    That's right except once the plane leaves the empty seat is worthless. Even if you charge $10. for IAD to LAX that's still $10 more in your pocket than if you had the seat empty. It's a tough game to figure out. Get this quote from my neighbor today.........Cost to fly their dog to Brussels when...

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    That's right. The customers need to pay a reasonable fare for their tickets. If the customers don't like it they can drive, take the bus or train, fly another airline or just don't go. Who needs 'em?

    what to do about a dangerous captain

    What's the truth here? I'm assuming you've tried to settle this with the pilot on a personal level. If there is still a real problem with this guys flying you need to bring it to the CP's attention. Have a meeting to discuss the situation with the CP and get some advice for getting along with...

    United: Thanks for flying the friendly skies.

    Nothing new here. UAL makes a deal and finds ways to avoid holding up their end of the bargain. http://www.usatoday.com/travel/columnist/brancatelli/2006-04-24-brancatelli_x.htm

    Buying a house, here's how to beat reatlors at their game.

    Having bought and sold dozens of homes over 30 years I can tell you that you have to know what you're doing with home sales or you can lose a lot in actual money or in unrealized profits. There's nothing wrong with becoming a realtor (real estate salesperson) to be involved in your own...

    10-Year Question

    Good for you! The main thing is to be able to verify your status during that time. Be sure to provide contacts with any part time work you did during that time and also be sure those people remember you. A friend that owns a business is a good source of verification if they have an established...

    UAL Fire at IAD?

    No big deal. UAL management was burning the loan notes for money they owed everybody before Chap.11 and it got out of hand. Too much paper.

    advice...for a newbie CFI

    This kind of thing happens all the time when you work for or with people who don't appreciate your time. If "helping" this student is not part of your degree program and you're not getting paid....or even thanked for it......then just don't do it. For a professor to say to a student that they...

    Moving to Denver

    Lots of new communities sprouting up between Denver and Colorado Springs. Out in the plains might be an easier road trip in to DEN though. Less expensive than the Boulder area.
