If the next Displacement is anything like the June AE, over 40% of the FO's on the SLC737 will be displaced in two bids. That is truly amazing considering all the positive hype that people seem to be talking about.
Sorry, just venting, but you will have guys that were #60 of 100 in may getting displaced.
The people providing the positive hype stopped posting here last month. This is a sad but important lesson for us. I believe everyone here had strong misgivings and worries about the TA prior to signing. DALPA knew it. That administration saw it as their duty to get you to temporarily suspend your gut instincts and believe them. It worked. Many of us were screaming that we were being lied to and spun by that DALPA administration. Others here said folks like me were the liars.
The lesson here is never forgetting who was doing the lying and spinning.
