If I may clarify something. What the original poster stated is 100% INCORRECT. OBAP HAS NOT NOR WILL make statements such as Laminar has exclaimed. As Communications Chair of OBAP, we have been trying to provide ALL members with best practices and key information to navigate these troubling times. In the seminar Laminar is referencing, there was an AA Management Pilot speaking about the state of the company in an official capacity who showed slides of current and future staffing numbers, which ALL companies have done. He also stated those numbers were fluid and not concrete. Again, OBAP has not or did not make those claims.
The virtual seminars have been presented by industry professionals and the topics have ranged from Mental Health, Financial Planning and Navigating Through Furloughs.
I wish Laminar would have reported CORRECT information before getting you all upset about OBAP. His statements are misleading and slanderous in nature when coupled with statements made by others like "I will never believe anything coming from them in the future" and "I hope you didn't pay for that".
