It's ok. At this point, with a busted quarterback, I'm just hoping to make the playoffs, where maybe a record setting blizzard in Green Bay, Wisconsin could possibly take down the Packers passing game and clear the way for the Bears. Yes, I know. It's a reach.

I just think we'll never have a WOW moment at this airline for a long time when it comes to aircraft and maybe even hiring. And man I hope we hire but at the same time I'm wondering if we're not hiring for retirements because as they go, we'll shrink.
That is the sentiment I'm seeing out on the line. Especially on the DC9, the guys I fly with think the WOW moment will never happen.
Personally, I think management is terrified of having a nightmare training scenario (lots of unfrozen pilots being displaced over and over again), and part of their decision-making process is focused on avoiding that. I think when they figure out their crystal ball, the WOW will come.
And because the number of forecast training events from the November AE came in under what they were thinking they would be, I want to be the first to predict that the next bid will be the mother of all AE's.
Or, will it be the one after that?
