Do you know the origins of how we got the name Brainsurgeon's? Notice I said "we"?
Damn right things need to be called out about UAL skeletons. I just found the irony of prior comments to be comical and at the same time offensive given my Frontier family history.
On August 28, 1986 the UAL MEC proposed arbitration with UAL Mgt to solve the pay issue. This attempt was made after a presentation by Captain Walker, Chairman of the Frontier pilots, and Don Osmundson, President of the Frontier labor coalition. The UAL MEC agreed to bring the FAL pilots on the property at their current rates and allow a neutral arbitrator to decide the final pay outcome. UAL Mgt refused.
I'm done hijacking this thread and discussing this. I really feel sorry for your bitterness. Trust me, you're better off to let it go.
