another SWA commercial during sports programs..... to see over and over and over

[Ace McCoy]

Minus 1 pt for the Airtran jet being parked at gate 29 and the rampers standing next to gate 41. How are those 2 gates next to each other?

 

[BILL LUMBERG]

Yeah, like those commercials that United.....wait.....I mean that Delta.....no. Hey, come to think of it, I don't see any other airlines running commercials at all. Guess SWA is just stupid all the way around; they're running commercials when all the other airlines just sit on their butts and wait for people to book flights. Yeah, the other airlines must be run by geniuses.

It's a funny thing when you carry the most revenue miles....people just buy tickets....no need to air jackhole commercials every two minutes during the tourney....

but SWA is profitable, so it must be the commercials right? or is it they cherry pick routes and have a route structure with only what...60 cities?

Oh nevermind....at least nobody asks me if I ever wanted to fly for a big airline

 

[BILL LUMBERG]

The adds are working. SWA has picked up an additional 1% market share (mostly due to bags fly free). That is about $800M.
Not sure of the significance of the Airtran jet though. I am sure the marketeers have a plan. Go March Madness.

oooooo 1%?...... damn the haters!

oooooo 1%?...... damn the haters!

oooooo 800 Million dollars! That's not worth it at all.....

Don't forget all the extra money sw saves in training costs by having their employees pay for training, and saving on all those maint. costs that has them in the news.

 

[Moon-dog]

And let’s don't forget that they made a profit in 37 straight years and did not make their employees eat a 42% pay cut and pony up their retirements. I will say again, oh most ignorant one, it’s not pay for training, its meeting the minimum requirements for the job. Sorry you are a failure. (not really)

I don't know of any SWA employee who has EVER paid for training. Unlike some airlines the pilots get paid while in training including their hotels. Always been a full blown 6 to 8 week training regime too, no shortcuts.

If you are talking about getting the 737 type -- small potatoes considering the long term benefit. Just another requirement like an ATP is. No furloughs, no downgrades, the best job security in the industry, good schedules, adequate layovers for rest, one of the lowest rates for health insurance compared to other airlines, a wide choice of bases, and compared to pay rates at other airlines the money for the type rating (an investment) is recouped in VERY short order. F/O's in their 3rd year making $125,000 without even trying hard. Captains making $230,000 and more if they want. You really think $8,000 for a type matters to these guys?

Maintenance issues? Every airline gets nailed now and then. Often a matter of intepretation of the rules.

Your jealousy of not working there is showing.

You can say it again and again oh pft one who didn't get hired one!
The pft program is just a minor thing in the whole scheme of the way they do business. The FAA is finally cracking down on them for their shabby maint. program.
It's about time the government looks at these cowboys!
BTW, how's the job at swa working out for ya?:laugh::laugh:

I like your name Scope out RJs....I guess SWA was the only one smart enough to do that...how do you feel about that issue?

Don't try to bother that guy with real issues. He's too busy polishing the hub caps on his italian U-Boat Commander jacket, or maybe watching Love Boat re-runs.

There is no doubt in my mind the wait will be well worth it. I am glad of two things, the system culled you out as chaff and that I will not have to fly with a pathetic loser like you. Enjoy you next pay cut!!

 

[StopNTSing]

Guys, just stop feeding the troll.

 

[Benjamin Dover]

Agreed - Scope is not even worth the effort. At least the General is pretty funny to trade barbs with. Scope is just a whacko - is he
Tanker Clown's life partner maybe?

Hey maybe since a fool and his checkbook are so dearly departed, you can take some of that hard earned money and buy a job somewhere else, since you couldn't get hired at swa.
Maybe you can pour another couple $$thousand and pay the lav truck company, that way at least you won't have to go far to sniff the crap that comes from the swa pft guys on this board!!:laugh:
Enjoy your next pft job that you can't get hired at loser!

You are the dumbest man alive!! Good luck drinking the lav water, can you even come up with slams that you don't get from others? Remember, I saw you drinking and driving the SST. You are a loser and I am finished because you are so far below me it's not fun to banter with complete idiots, such as yourself. Enjoy your pathetic, lowly life you LOSER!!
