"Fleeting opportunities." Opportunities for DALPA and management. Not for us line pilots.
"Fleeting opportunities?" nah. More like "Fleecing opportunities."
Purple,
With all due respect, you need to take a deep breath before hitting the "submit reply" button. Again, with no intention of malice thought, just stop and think before quoting someone's post and not understanding the dialogue.

I followed up with his post, as it was, and still is factually incorrect with my post:

So, without further adieu, Beeker made a comment that was in its simplest form, "incorrect". I stated such, and believe your consternation has affected how people react to your posts on this forum.
I don't know your situation. Were you one of the many NWA furloughs? Possibly part of the 2nd furloughs due to the DC-9 replacement a/c coming on line? (a.k.a. Compass) In any case, for your own health and well-being, try taking a second to enjoy life. I've seen what furlough can do to a person/family/friends, and don't wish that on anyone.
It's the holiday season, a time for cheer and good will. Take a break from your blind frustration posting, and enjoy a "spiced" egg nog.
Cheers,
GJ
