To ASA Pilots..

[WWEfan]

To quote Kurt Angle, "Oh it's true. It's true."

The internal memo is posted on Fred Lamberts door. I read it myself. Of course I didn't need to read it. There was plenty of celebrating going on in the crew lounge to hear about it. Hell, I just barely stepped through the door and people were asking me, "Have you heard the good news?"

Ok.............who's CT?

B-bye Mr. "Cost-neutral, zero net gain"!

"At ASA he has initiated key employee labor and recognition programs to foster positive changes and increased employee involvement on a company-wide basis."

He's definitely increased employee involvement, but not in the way he would have hoped!

 

[anon]

Mmmmmmmm ..... Buh Bye CT ......

Thanks SkyWest! Now you're starting to gain some credibility with the pilots. This little bit of sunshine is going to do a lot of good!

If this is true, wow! This is VERY, VERY good news.

Santa may bring us a contract for Christmas after all.

Any chance it could have been the same pranksters that came up with the recent Dallas bid preference sheets (with a canary back copy, I might add)?

Had a Captain I was flying with last week come storming into the airplane ranting about how "They're reopening Dallas. I just came from Dallas and they're setting it up now!". The FA and I just kind of and let it go.

Just a bit high strung, this Captain.

Where you living in DFW when they closed it?

Sorry Texx, I didn't mean to come across as belittling those who got screwed when DFW closed. I should have been clearer in that he was talking of it reopening as a base, and he was one of the most animated people I've run into at ASA, hence my comments.

I sympathize with the DFW folks and I can understand their anger and frustration. I meant no harm.

 

[Plug]

Yeah it's true and hopefully he'll take his ex-TWA friends with him!

I guess there are supposed to be some more big announcements next week.

Stay tuned............

I was also in that meeting room when they closed big D. I thought Skip did a pretty good job showing sympathy for us. But as for CT it was a different story. It was kind of like good cop (skip) bad cop (CT). There were many questions in that room from tearry (is that how you spell it) eyed DFW people that he flatly answered "nope, thats your responsibility" or " no, we cant help you with that". Arms crossed in a defensive posture the entire meeting.

I was in recurrent when we found out about his departure. Ya'll should have heard the thunderous applause in that room!

Whatever!

 

[Oakum_Boy]

Nevermind

 

[bailout]

yep, E.H. and D.M next.....

 

[~~~^~~~]

Deleted, since he is not gone yet and we know he is a petty, vindictive, lying, son of a goat herder's uncle. ( No disrespect to goats, or their herders intended )

Wonder if our question to Mr. Atkin about the employee opinion survey results got attention?

You know, with these kinds of changes, could ASA actually be in the process of becoming a decent place to work? Could SkyWest actually pull off the transformation that Delta only talked about?

Well Skip wasn't the Messiah. A DFW pilot asked "is it possible to work on a commuter policy for the pilots." Skip said, "no, you should live where you work."

Skip and Bryan also told us it would be better for the airline if pilots would leave after attaining five years of longevity. That is loyalty, isn't it?

 

[ohplease!]

in a company memo from today.... D.M. and L.B. have left the building.

E.H. to go soon????
