Yet again a supposedly talented and "constructive" management team reads straight from the airline manager playbook of consistent, generational failure.

All this does for this group is further emphasize our shortcomings in scope, at the same time sitting in the conga line in our biggest hub as our main competitor with rock solid scope flosses and flies 130 seaters that pay more than our 400 seaters.

If things were going rosy and there was hiring and upward movement right now, it would be easy to keep the wool over our eyes, especially the apathetic and "fence sitters" that just want to show up, fly their trips and go home. This kind of nonsense, especially as our large RJ's are maxed out and our code share "partners" as well as cut throat competitors are all growing at twice the rate we are shrinking and partnering with subsidized foreign ponzi scheme airlines with the capacity discipline we're gifting them is a far better wake up call than any union is capable of on their own.

This does not make me want any less in C2012, but rather it proves we need a heck of a lot more.
