Look at paragraph 289 (page 3-162)

Anyone in the box pushing an agenda is a tool and should be fired (at Eagle or AA).

Who got screwed more? The answer ain't the pilots. My vote is the nice and professional TWA flight attendants who got royally screwed and are now permanently f@#$ed, unlike the pilots.
LLC pilots are most definately not 'new hires', and I doubt that assertion will stand.

I agree with your next sentence, for sure; and it DID happen, trust me.

Who got screwed more? Well, out of 22,500 TWA employees working when AA bought TWA, only 2000 are left at AA. Does it really matter?
