Unofficial Eagle company creed: Fire, Aim, Ready?!!!
Official point-of-view from an insider:
Morale is at an unprecedented low, with the continuing saga of the AA flushback prospects and the ever present cat fights between AMR mgt. and ALPA result in more plot twists than a weekly dosage of "all my children".
The real scoop is this, so many are bailing because of no real hope of getting out of the right seat in less time than it would take to conceive, and raise a 10 yr. old. There were something like 240 total furloughs of which less than half have answered the call.
Sure we are getting something like 3 EMBs & 1 CRJ/month, plus introducing said CRJs in ORD around Jan 04. So on the outside-looking-in things look "swell". Just remember to not get your expectations up too high, because even when things were rosy everywhere else, here they were not! Come here to get a bit more experience flying with some good people then do what most of us want and should and BAIL!
Sorry to sound so pessimistic, but I needed to vent
