Surejet name on hold

[damnflyboy]

Maybe the server was laughing so hard when it saw the new name that it couldn't process any more data.

Excellent mental picture. Thank you.

 

[ASAFOE120]

You know, if you guys would quit using the commuter clause, none of this would've happened.

I wouldn't use it if they wouldn't have closed my base!

 

[Freebrd]

[Medeco]

Excerpt from Brad's reply: "All great points and everyone is going to have a chance to give more input as we are putting this on hold till we get it right!"

 

[Freebrd]

Further evidence: flyasa.com has been updated to remove the new name video and press release.

Sweet! Thanks! Too bad they made a press release before getting input.

A day that will live in ASA infamy.

 

[Freebrd]

I dunno, I didn't think they'd top the infamous SH memo just a few weeks ago, give 'em time lol

REMEMBER!!!

It doesn't matter how we got here.

First time for everything, right?

Thanks for the Ajc article johnpeace, now go back to work! The reserves need your help!!!

I hope not. They're optional half the year anyway.

I guess it does not matter. A bunch of guys can't even make themselves look presentable in the shirt and tie. Hats do cover up the spiked hair and/or bald heads pretty well, though.

I agree, but working in a sweatbox with crusty seats for 14 hours a day... How many people here can afford to dryclean four shirts per week. We get $17 dollars a month or something toward that. I can get two shirts cleaned and two pants for that much. Never mind I am working 20 days per month..

You don't have to dryclean those shirts every time, but an iron sure does help. All of mine can be laundered using a standard washing machine. Having it tucked in and buttoned is just icing on the cake.....

If I get a vote, I say keep the hats.

I use 2 shirts per 4 day in the summer. 1 per 4 day in the winter, and claim the dry cleaning on my taxes every year.

Alright that's one. I'm pretty sure that if this ever went to a vote it would easily by 9 to 1 in favor of OPTIONAL HATS YEAR ROUND. That way you hat Nazi's can wear to your heart's content and the rest of us will know who to avoid flying with.

Back on topic - SureJet sucks. I really think the best thing is to use the ExpressJet name and the ASA logo.

 

[No Delay]

My vote. ExpressJet. ASA logo. Jetlink callsign.

I was blown away by the whole SureJet thing. But have to say I am glad Brad had the balls to put the brakes on it. Had to be huge ego bust. Rather see us take the black eye than let pride take us further down this embarrassing road.

 

[centralpilot]

My vote. ExpressJet. ASA logo. Jetlink callsign.

Seconded. Better solution than rolling the dice on another "unique" name.

3rd!!!

3rd!!!

I agree.....

 

[Salukipilot4590]

Even if they change it....I'm calling you SureJet from now on...

Ok, cumair

 

[No Delay]

Nice. I like it a lot

 

[SpaceShipEarth]

Except that ASA logo has nothing to do with ASA other than being something shoved down our throats by corporate a few months ago.

Bingo. Why do we need a "logo" anyhow? Here's an idea, fire the people who put things like this on our public website:

Do you see Delta or United with pictures of dogs in pilot uniforms???????????


p.s. I know this isn't either of the above, but I'm getting a pretty good idea what the management thinks of us. Also, I'm betting the submitter is the mother redneck of all of 'em

 

[Clutch]

Seen one in daylight yet?

I have to admit, that dog in the pilot uniform looks better than some of the geriatric mainline Captains I've seen.

Oxyclean is fantastic.... soak them in that and then a regular wash cycle. Iron it before use. I've never drycleaned a uniform shirt...
