Look guys, I understand things are not what they once were. That sucks! People have a right to be p!!!ed. Our pay troubles are hopefully temporary, our scheduling bugs are hopefully temporary. I am not as happy as I once was but we are the frontline. We can control things more than some think.

Captains especially, we are the guys who set the tone. If the first thing we start start complaining about is our problems what kind of tone do you think that sets for the entire trip for the whole crew? Everyone is already in a bad mood because of our current issues and thats understandable. What we don't want to have happen is that the mood affects our performance out on the line. Frowning faces and ****ed off FAs lead us down a road we do not want to go. We are here to do a job and thats provide a service to our customers. We do have challenges like this airline has never faced before but that should NOT stop you putting on a friendly face to our customers and bringing down company moral.

Again, we have every reason to be upset about the current situation but our moral does not have to be completely driven by the company. Go out there and try to put on a friendly face and have a great trip. We have great crews at this company and I still show up to work when I have to and put on a smile. The last thing I try to do is discuss our issues. It's hard not to but I want to have a good trip and leave that BS behind.

At the end of the day we have a great job. We get paid to fly around and socialize. We will all be moving on shortly. We have a few hiccups to deal with but at the end of the day I am going to try to keep my trips a good time for everyone. I know some of you will be say this guy is smoking something but haters gonna hate. Welcome to the internet.
