Is being effeminate a prerequisite for being hired as a frac CEO?

This guy is a professinal B.S. artist. I heard the same message with a different content (RJs are going to take the world over) at Delta. He is the father of the RJ system. He fired one of the best chief pilots Delta ever had and replaced him with a ladder climbing back stabber that is now trying to get the UAL ALPA to let him fly their aircraft as one of their VPs. I am hopeful that his forecast is correct but he is what he is.

Will somebody tell the truth for once???

Here Fred claims growth in 2010, back to normal business in 2011, but in internal memo's he is threatening pilots with more layoffs?

What gives,,Boss??

There will also be a pilot shortage that will begin as soon as 2011.

But in internal memo's he is threatening pilots with more layoffs? What internal memo and when with more layoffs????

OK, "internal memo" was a bad choice of words. But, he has said, and repeated by others, that we are carying more pilots than necessary, and if things don't improve they will be furloughed. I believe the common number kicked around is 15.

So, what gives?
