The problem at VX is unless they start making money (AND SOON) no amount of Kool-Aid fueled fantasy will save these jobs.
Fish wow I do agree with ya on this one. " But " one thing to remember is they might be making money they are not a publicly traded company as of yet so they could be funneling the money in the direction they want, paying off investors ,planes ext. and show a loss. My understanding is they are preparing for a IPO and if and when that happens every one will know exactly were all the money loss or profit is.

On my company forum LUAL/LCAL someone posted they just go a raise and the overall dollar an hour figure is much better then ours the benefits are still in the tank. It is a start in the right direction. Who knows maybe in a couple years if they make it they might be a great place with benefits we will see.
