And that's the stealing money from my wife, myself and my two young boys. I've been on furlough for 9 years now.
Again, those "synergies of efficiency" will sit rotting on the shelves, just like at US Airways. It's the new normal. Just ask Doug Parker.
I have a feeling Jay Pierce is going to stand behind the podium and tell us all it's raining when we know exactly what the liquid is. It ain't water.

You cant be serious. Do you understand your furlough and continued furlough has to do with the UA MEC, company and judges actions. Some guys are coming back because of the merger and that's a win... to place your situation on Jay Pierce and the CAL MEC is ridiculous.
The UAL MEC has done me few favors. Same with the courts. And it goes without saying that the company doesn't give a rats ass about us, either. This I've long known and understood.
But when hopes of cobbling together a JCBA anytime in the next few years evaporate with the end-around deal of the L-CAL led by Jay Pierce, yeah I'm
dead serious. And for what,
one measly year of profit sharing?
There goes my recall chances for another three to five years, but who's counting, right?
I can always kiss my wife and kids goodbye and head off to my swank life as a reserve puke living at my crashpad next to the prison near EWR. I'll see them sometime later in the month. Can't tell them when with any certainty, though. That's no "win" for my family. I didn't move them 10 minutes from ORD so commuting to IAH or EWR would be easier.
