Southwest Airlines to Acquire AirTran; Spreading Low Fares Farther 6:55 am - PR Newsw

Bring on the arbitrator! He will take one look at the value of the two careers and realize the ONLY thing a SWA guy gets out of this is a seniority bump. This WILL got to arbitration when AT refuses our offer...and I look forward it.

I don't follow PCL, he follows me.

Seriously though, you're so far out in left field with this thing, it's scary, but it's a VERY well-played attempt at flame. If those pesky little things like Federal Law and violations of SEC filings didn't regularly end up with people in jail, people might actually *listen* to you.

As it is, I'm not concerned about it. They're going to acquire the airline intact - it's not like they're buying just the gates and landing slots, they're acquiring over 100 aircraft. They need our employees; it's just that simple, and in this job economy, threatening the job security of thousands of workers is a quick way to get the DoJ to step in and nix the whole thing.

Just the way of the world, my friend. But nice try.

How'd that go...."just the way of the world, my friend???" Sweet dreams, Cupcake

Low fares? Look up the price of fares out of HOU.
