I haven't heard anything about VLOA or part time lines for weeks now. I guess no news is good news - for now, maybe.

-We have truly elected the worst president in history-if you doubt me, just get back to me in a couple of years-when we are all eating alpo and living in carboard accomodations! I'll be in the nice, thick one that says "whirlpool," yep-down by the river...

It won't be that bad but I do think a lot of the country was duped with the Obama mania and his smooth talk which I guarantee most have no idea what he's saying other than it sounds good. You know the folks that were parading around the streets knowing nothing about the guy other than he's young and is going to bring hope and find jobs for us.

Yes in the last 4 years, the US was horribly mismanaged by Bush but it doesn't mean we need a socialist to turn things around. Too late. France seems like they're doing ok though. Unemployment at what 15%?

Yeah, we should cut taxes... because that doesn't cost anything... right? Oh yeah, except the 1.3 trillion in taxes Bush cut early on. Somehow this .8 trillion is worse? WTF are you guys talking about?

Apparently you did not read Obamas stimulus plan has 280 billion in tax cuts.

No news means that management was not willing to go for SAPAs proposals. That means instead of getting some guys to go on their own, management is more likely to furlough. No news = bad news.

I would agree with that. Just get it over with now.

Latest word was that they would having something in place for the April bid (no details yet).

 

[amcnd]

I think they will get something out by the end of the week.

GoJet Sucks!

I hope this is sarcasm.... There is no chance this will do anyone any good. We are simply putting a couple of generations deeply in debt to make a political play.

What? It was ok when Bush spent trillions of dollars trying to build and stimulate Iraqs economy? Now Obama is spending a small fraction compared to George (not-for-big-spending-or-nation-building) Bush and he is the worst President ever? WTF?

Your just like 'hope he fails' Limbaugh. I am starting to think the only way republicans will be happy is if we really are living in boxes down by the river. Then they can say I told you so....

Stop being so spiteful and support your President. I sucked it up for Bush and gave him the benifit of the doubt. At least this President is keeping the money in America.

 

[Spicepilots]

Gee, we might furlough IF things don't get better by the time the usual post-summer reduction comes along IF they won't need everyone for the holiday bump IF we park the EMB's IF we can't agree on a leave policy IF...

Nothing to see here, move along.

I tend to agree with you. Nothing to see here. And you all can resurrect as many times as you want. For the time being, there is nothing to see here.

Don't make me bust out Mark Twain again.

Not trying to beat a dead horse. I just get the feeling that some folks at Skywest believe they are immune to furlough. All I am gonna say is, get your finances in order. Consider the dismal earnings report as a shot across the bow. The stock is tumbling and Jerry, Chip, Brad, etc. are under scrutany from the share holders. BTW, I don't work for SkyWest and therefor don't get the SAPA updates. My source is someone within the SGU inner circle. But hey, carry on, nothing to see here.

If you don't work at SkyWest how are you getting the feeling that people believe they are immune to furlough? Forum boards?







eP.

 

[flyboyzz1]

dismal earnings report?

you make it sound like skywest was in the red like some other regionals...

4th Qtr. profit halved from last year due to too many pilots. That's straight from Brad Rich via the Conference Call. Now true, that may be from the ASA side, but I doubt it as 80 went on furlough last week.

Remember that was "SkyWest INC." they don't split how much each airline makes.. But I will tell you this, my bonus check was bigger then last year same time!! So that would suggest that SkyWest is doing allright.

ok...you don't work for skywest but you seem to have inside information on us. Secondly your aircraft types indicate skywest aircraft. Your screename implies you work for skywest.

You're probably one of those creepy people that uses internet dating too aren't you?

While I appreciate this concern you have for our pilot group I truly think that you are just stirring the pot and wishing bad on us.

As they say "Misery loves company"

BTW the stock price has been going up and down several dollars a lot in the last year and a half.

Really, there isn't anything to see. September may be different, but only time will tell. It's February.

A shot across the bow: A warning that I might lose a regional job that I love so much and that I get payed so well to do and is my whole purpose for living.

Yeah, I'm trembling in fear.

God help me if I have to move to an island and start SCUBA instructing.

Maybe I ought to learn how to be a truck driver, what's the number of that truck driving school we saw on TV, Truck Masters I think it is, I might need that
