We worked so hard to get out of the regionals, and our MEC has voted to basically turn us into one. Our management is going to have a field day with negotiations after this passes. I also can’t help but get the feeling that we’re being setup for a merge. To a company that’s inevitably facing bankruptcy...while we give up the one thing that we have some control over-scope language. We are so fuqed, it’s depressing. There’s no good options for us at the bottom.

The company (JetBlue) that hired me 2 years ago emphasized their brand, the culture, core values etc etc. That’s all out the window with this agreement. I don’t know how they can ever look at us with a straight face and talk about our core values or cleaning airlines or whatever humanity inspired bullish!t that happen to be peddling that day. I don’t know what I’m missing here, but I need to hear directly from these reps via Q&A, podcast, whatever. They need to answer for this.
It’s a great job when you show up, turn left, and close the door....but this fuqing industry is brutal.
Take a deep breath. The TA dropped yesterday. It's not a foregone conclusion that this passes. By any stretch.
