SWAPA Comments about 717

I am not the person you think I am. Besides, how would you ever know who I am.

If you are unhappy with the deal then you have a couple of options. Either get over it or quit. You made your bed now sleep in it. Some people think SWA should show some compassion and give you the same pay before due time. Really, do you think that will happen? You got more than you deserve anyway.

You know its one thing to waste your time on this website hoping to hear the next big rumor or have a decent debate about SLI or scope or Hobby Airport. But when you actually get satisfaction out of being an Internet troll. You have my complete sympathy you sad little man.

More or less you see what I mean. I do see the biding frustration. My friend just ran into the new hire (AT) guy and said he has had a great new hire experience.

AirTran pilots are not new hires.

This whole thing is just fricked up.

That sums up this whole deal better than anyone else on here as well as Texman showing just how myopic the SWA perspective can be.

Sorry to bust your bubble, but they are indeed "new hires".

The only difference between an AT Pilot and some of my USAir / DL friends that came on over is, the AirTran pilot is a new hire with seniority, versus starting at the bottom like my 15 year USAir friend and my 20 year DL friend.

There is abosolutely nothing wrong with the "new hire" moniker, it simply indicates the person is "new" to doing things the Southwest way.

He's actually on the tall side, for a troll. . . . Inside, though, 100% angry little man. :laugh:

PCL, you know exactly what I mean. I know you are not new. To SWA you are.

Dan, I always see what's ahead. Would you please stop being a Idiot Just saying old man.

Sorry to be so sensitive about it, Tex, but it is getting a little tiring being treated like we're nothing but new hires. A guy coming off the street as a new hire is not the same thing as one of our captains with 17 years of service going through transition training.
