When people can't even get the basic facts right, how can we get together on the more serious issues, like the f-ing contract? UAL pilots don't look down on CAL pilots. The UAL-MEC has ALL of our best interests at heart. Please guys let's not spread rumors. Let's keep our eye on the ball.
BTW, our coffee makers haven't changed since the 727, or most likely earlier than that. We had Starbuck's coffee until the merger. Funny, I talked to Dutta years back and he was adamant about how important that contact was.
P.S. I know I'm mixing threads, but I GUARANTEE JH is NOT getting "put on ice" from Moak. Your "contact" is once again poorly informed.
Actually, he's right. Some article was trotted out awhile back where they talked about the minutia of a merger. In it, some overpaid Sr. VP of Coffee talked about how they put the CAL bags into the UAL machines, which didn't allow the bag to sit correctly, thus diluting the coffee. Rather than just go back to Starbucks, they were going to modify the makers.
I can't believe that I just typed a post about coffee makers with all that's going on right now
