Spot on. How many pre-merger announcements have we all heard where they say 'no one will lose their jobs' or 'no decrease service', when in the end, guess what?

Do to circumstances beyond our control, we have to 'close this station', or 'decrease service'. This happens all the time in every industry. None of these guys have gone to jail. Give me a break.



I didn't base my investment on whether employees may lose their jobs.

But to misrepresent your stated intent to merge the operations,
to take advantage of the economies of scale, is opening the door
for years of litigation.

And if was shown that he intended to that, all along, it would
be fraud.

It's interesting that some of you are implying that is, in fact, what is going
on.

Hope GK is has a document shreder.

Neither is a 70% pay increase with the addition of anything close to DOH/RS.

Agree to disagree maybe.

Ill weigh in ..... Stapling all AirTran FO's is not a serious offer.


Why would you take madjack's words, put them in a quote box and then change them? If you quote somebody, don't change what they said.

Really bad form. Makes you seem childish.

Cooking the accounting books like Enron and others will get you fraud, changing forward looking statement to match the 'reality of today' will not. Things change, it's business.

These forward looking statements ALWAYS come with disclaimers. Again, have you ever read any SEC filings? They are always there. Always.

I'm not seeing anywhere near a 70% pay increase, not even close even after figuring in 401K, profit sharing, and comparing it before the measly raise from the last CBA. And, the increase that I am seeing is not worth giving up a lot of seniority for, sorry.
 
Since no one can or will source the claim of a rejection by the AAI MEC I think this last volley might be based on a rumor.
 
The pre-announcement AAI FO rate topped out at 79/hr.

It now tops out at 101/hr. That was because of the announcement.

That in it self is a 30 percent payraise! I wouldn't call that measly raise, but whatever.

Sooo 79/hr at AAI vs 148/hr at SW equals.... way more than 70%

I think shootr posted it (the rumor you mention) briefly last evening and then deleted it (I read it before it was deleted but don't remember well enough to quote him). He might know where he got his info from.
