I know DS is gone... Let's just say more are coming. Is that a little clearer?

On another note, from reading APC, it actually looks like Spoilers heard about the same info I did. News on Wednesday.

If that Mod discussion is because of something I posted, whoever has a problem with it please let me know and I will take down my post.

Interesting.

That usually happens after being acquired by Skywest.

Unfortunately putting "Comair" on a resume is the kiss of death.

"So why is there a 12 year gap in your employment history?"

"Umm...no reason..."

 

[Clancy]

Excuse me, but DS is already out of the company. He resigned a week or two ago. Where have you been? There's not going to be any big announcement next week.

I thought DS was staying on through the end of the month. Maybe so he can feed us the big S*&$ Burger himself. I like the personal touch.

Meeting of the Comair higher-ups on Tuesday the 24th. Wednesday the 25th an announcement will be made. I bet DS is the first of the top brass at Comair to be let go and more cleaning house at on the top floor is about to go down. It is about time! Anyone have any popcorn?

My guess is that Bendover is leaving.

You are about to get a leadership infusion from Freedom Air

He is, that was my mistake and I apologize to the original poster. Yeh, I'm sure he'd love to go out with a bang..wonder if he'll miss who he was banging in the g.o.

I knew you had......ahhhh i would say balls but your a woman. Hey remember, in KY UI is I think maxed at 800.00 weekly for full time. If you have to be on UI for 99 weeks enjoy yourself!! You and hubby canfly all over the world and do some of that freaky stuff you two have always wanted to try. (No, I don't want to know the details.) But you see what's about to happen, New flying gets awarded and Comair didn't get crap!

The signs are there, pay attention. You fly the 50 or the 70?

UI maxes out at 415.00/week in KY. = NO FUN

I heard it was $800 per week for some Comair people. At least that's what they told me. I got laid off 10 years ago and it was $300 per week, that sucked even worse. Thanks.

I would only say with Delta, many were hired at NWA but now that Delta bought them and does all the hiring......well..

Tuesday night...rumors all over the place...the suspense is killing me! Management should have had the meeting today and the rest of us will know something tomorrow.

 

[79%N1]

Tomorrow will come and go, and it will be business as usual for you guys.

 

[makersmarc]

I understand that tomorrow a rumor will be posted that will say that there's going to be a really huge announcement NEXT week. According to my source (my sister-in-law went to school with RA's cat sitter), some people aren't going to be very happy. Oh wait, I shouldn't be posting this now. New rumors are supposed to come out on Fridays. Disregard.

Just asking. If I have to collect unemployment for 99 months

99 months would be over 8 years, lol. You get unemployment for 99 weeks, not months. That's less than two years.

LOL! You are right!!! thanks, that made me laugh. I'm a complete whack-job anyway. 8 years holy S****t!!!

Here is the newest rumor over at APC board but they are usually pretty credible, but who knows, they don't yank people's chains for fun over there: Agree on the relax thing, but Spoilers and I are hearing the same stuff. Soap/Gump was the first of two shoes to fall. Next shoe will fall this week.

Something about Delta announcing that Comair needs to be "right-sized" a lot more.

Embrace the Suck.

Why are so many pilots here refusing to see the writing on the wall?

 

[JonnyKnoxville]

Because there are no other options currently on the table for most of us so we just hang on and wait.

They must have been pulling your chain, or they might have meant 800 every two weeks. I drew the unemployment for a while after taking a buyout from Comair and I received the max of 415.00/week.
