But after a Ch11, furlough, mutliple displacements and concessions all while management gave themselves raises and pats on the back, well, sorry......
Watching them squander millions and millions of dollars, taking a big hit a few years back and blaming it on the extreme weather while the other 2 legacies that operate out of the SAME PLACE AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME WEATHER made profits, well, it's not my job.
It's not my job to scream "HOW HI!!!" when they say "JUMP!!!!" (We bed you to take a hit, work more for less, be more "competitive")
It's pretty infuriating to push 30-40 minutes late on say a SFO-EWR transcon... work hard, save gas, negotiate short cuts, provide a smooth safe ride, then arrive 15 minutes early and under burn only to be told head to the ball park and sit for an hour. Fuel saved and time recovered, all wasted. Effort, for naught.
It only takes one manager one decision to waste months of effort and hard work by the employees.
