I agree it's stolen from another board..A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package.

"What food might this contain?" The mouse wondered.

He was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap.






Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed this warning :

"There is a mousetrap in the house!

There is a mousetrap in the house!"







The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said,

"Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is of grave concern to you,

but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it."

The mouse turned to the pig and told him,

"There is a mousetrap in the house!

There is a mousetrap in the house!"







The pig sympathized, but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse,

but there is nothing I can do about it but pray.

Be assured you are in my prayers."





The mouse turned to the cow and said, "There is a mousetrap in the house!

There is a mousetrap in the house!"





The cow said, "Wow, Mr. Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off my nose."





So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected,

to face the farmer's mousetrap

. . . Alone . . .





That very night a sound was heard throughout the house

-- the sound Of a mousetrap catching its prey.





The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught.

In the darkness, she did not see it.

It was a venomous snake whose tail was caught in the trap.





The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital.


When she returned home she still had a fever. Everyone knows you treat a fever

with fresh chicken soup. So the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard

for the soup's main ingredient:







But his wife's sickness continued. Friends and neighbors came to sit with her

around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.




But, alas, the farmer's wife did not get well . . . She died.



So many people came for her funeral that the farmer had the cow slaughtered

to provide enough meat for all of them for the funeral luncheon.





And the mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great sadness.



So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and you think

it doesn't concern you, remember ---


When one of us is threatened, we are all at risk.

And the facade of "scope protection" is now completely exposed for even the people with severe vision impairment to see thanks to the RAH/ Frontier pilots. This problem began though with the first commuter code share and now we see how it will play out for all of us at the big airlines. A few w************************* in DEN lowered the bar with their coming shoulder shrug and sigh proclaiming "sorry Midwest guys, I'm just following my company's orders by flying my 319 on your routes. There's nothing I can do about it." Welcome to the end of the show!
 
"sorry Midwest guys, I'm just following my company's orders by flying my 319 on your routes. There's nothing I can do about it."

I'm sorry you feel that way.

Apathy is contagious. It's spreading.

This problem started when mainline pilots didn't want to fly turboprops anymore or later on baby jets...
 
The midwest guys did not stand up and stop flying their planes when they saw what management was doing. But now you expect Frontier guys to stand up for you?
 
God Bless the Frontier pilots... They are such a bold group to move forward, stepping over the corpses of those Midwest guys with their 319's from Denver. How many MKE routes did Frontier guys fly this month? How many MKE routes will Frontier be flying in the next few months?
Hmmm. I guess to be a Frontier pilot you have to have good hand washing skills...
 
Looks like another ALPA pilot group taking the short end of the stick.
ALPA=Failure
Look at the pilot groups that have suffered the most and ALPA is a winner by a long shot. No Union has given away more jobs then ALPA. The airlines represented by ALPA are not doing to well. I wonder why. ATA, MESA, Trans States, Midwest, Champion,Aloha,TWA, Eastern, Pan Am, Colgan, United, former USAIR.etc. the giving never ends.

Are you f@#$ing crazy? We repeatedly turned down RAH payrates that were offered to us, all the while shouting about what was going on while being ignored. We held the bar.

I don't expect the Frontier pilots to do anything. I expect them to roll over like the little lap dogs at RAH did.

He was asking you a question. Did you guys go on strike?
