Anybody been to Flightinfo recently? Read all the bitching and whining about ASA's schedules? Or Skywest? Or Comair? Or PSA? Or United? Or Northwest? Or ______________? A buddy sent me an email the Eagle MEC sent out a few weeks back about their "Critical Staffing Issues", so they aren't immune either.

EVERYBODY'S SCHEDULES BLOW THESE DAYS. The schedules blow because beancounters are in charge of the airline, not operations people...and the high price of the low overhead they seek is apparent to everybody on the line on a daily basis.
