So long ALPA. Thanks for the memories.

I understand, it's just that I don't think this is an industry for the geographically inflexible. I'm on my third airline and fifth base in seven years, and I was have always been a commuter. Maybe that's why I don't realize how much commuting sucks, since I've never done anything else.

I actually agree with you. I've always moved and loved the change - Five countries and numerous cities. I commuted for the majority of my career. When I finally moved to a base and drove to work, I was hooked.

It's difficult to go back. I think it's natural for people to resent any perceived lack of choice in something that's very personal.

That is an interesting statement from somebody that did harm to this profession by paying for their job and training at gulfstream.

Then your better start preaching to the under cutters at southwest who did far more harme to this industry with their PFT and lousy work rules/no retirement!

Don't feel sorry for his "diluted" seniority. He got a relative seniority increase. He's just a whiny little entitled bitch who thinks he should have gotten even more at our expense. He doesn't have the balls to fight Gary for anything, but he's definitely willing to fight to steal from his fellow pilots.

In the game of seniority integration, all bets are off. Sorry that you lost.

PFT?

Says the guy who bought just one fewer unnecessary rating for his job than a Southwest guy did. So, as for applying to an airline you're just a little less of the type of "PFT" that you like to claim for Southwest.

PLUS, you had to pay for your own housing at Delta's actual training?! That's actually a hell of a lot closer to "pay for training" then Southwest requiring one more rating to apply than Delta requires. I mean it's actual Delta training that you're shelling out your own money to accomplish....

Talk about a hypocritical and stupid remark!

EVP position?

Probably running for City council (prob Already on it), State Rep or Congress.
Politics is his calling...You take it from there.

I know, my responses, to the questions on the survey sent out (to FL labor groups) in the spring of 2010.
It was regarding the acquisition/merger of the two companies. The survey was intended to get a general feel for both Cultures and how they may adapt to each other.

Now I see..

I assume you all had the same results on your end?
