Thats just the problem. Thanks in part to southworst among many other reasons, the only decent places to work right now are FedEx and UPS.

CB asked where you work,why dont you answer that one?

Because he is to busy wiping chocolate chips of his boy boobs while at dads computer. Or he was rejected by Southwest and feels with his skill and flying talent Southwest missed out on the bestest aviator in the industry. The best the little boy can come up with is "worst". Yet his pay, qol and benefits are far superior then ours. I think we all want to know who this mystery airline is. Anyone can make good money in microsoft 2000 dreamland.

They didn't ask what companies you thought were best to work for, they asked what company YOU worked for.

So...what is it?

Please stop responding to pipejockey's bait. He is obviously a master baiter.

Some SWA pilots are very defensive about our company. They feel the need to defend it on these entertaining message boards. I sit back and laugh at it most of the time.
pipejockey keeps it entertaining. yes we are the scums of the industry, we hate our jobs, have no faith in our union or management, our compensation package blows, we have no job security, and are close to shutting down the entire operation.
Feel better now pipej?

This will create the Swan Song for Frontier! WN will be well positioned when UAL disappears either through bankruptcy or merger. The writing is on the wall. AMR is like a circling vulture hoping to purchase the fomer PAN AM routes, airplanes, and maybe associated crews from UAL.

We'll, F9, be lucky to make it to Christmas. This isn't going to be the last of the SWA expansion in DEN. I'm guessing this is where the recent plans to hire more crews and expand will be aimed. It's been a fun ride.
