Any CAL guys/girls - any bets on how long it takes UAL&CAL to jump in bed. United MEC is not making any statements.
This is just like being in Vegas- without the "free" drinks.
Carpe Diem
Our MEC and the company have been completely silent, with the exception of the daily reminders that oil is expensive. What? You're kidding!
The only update I have as of late is changes to our LTD. (long term disability). Drum roll please........ charges for it will now be INCREASED by 72% effective Mar. 1st and deducted from paychecks starting next week. Thanks again Age 65 rule. You are serving me well.
And no, I will not wager a guess on merger deals. I have the sneaking feeling that because it took a while for the NWA/DAL thing to halfway resolve itself, that most of the CAL/UAL cards are all set up and waiting to be dealt. (note my new signature line on my comments) Fingers crossed!
