Early reports have the 4 days of negotiations this week going nowhere as usual, the next 4 days of surface bargaining and wasting everybody’s time is not for another 6 weeks, but “completing an improved cba for our valued crew members is our top priority”. Their top priority is to sell the company and get rid of us.

If this epidemic in asia continues much longer or grows worse it’s not far fetched to see furloughs start. That would be a blessing in disguise as those laid off will have the time to secure a job with a real airline and leave this career wrecker of a company behind.

We’re only running classes now to offset the massive attrition.
