I am one of those guys that came here for the job security and culture. I am not naive. I came through the regional side having experienced three mergers, a warn letter, a furlough, age 65, eight years as a regional FO and was part of the lost generation.

I came here thinking Southwest was different. I finished my Kool-aid and have now spit it out.

The very idea they would come back with a larger reduction the second time shows me true colors of the organization. And - while negotiating 30 additional new planes. The milk is not only spilled but soured. It cannot go back in the carton. How incredibly sad that GK blew his chance to become a legend and will instead be remembered during this time as just another slime ball, money grubbing CEO.

I will be waiting at the door for my WARN letter. Also, I pray that every pilot going over min guarantee while Dean is on furlough have their name published in a place where every SW pilot can see it. I don’t give a crap if you had three wives and have kids in college, you will not be hurting as badly as the guys on furlough.
