Only caveat is this being the biggest grenade of a distraction in negotiations that I remember here. Keep the eyes on the prize. Tough.
Helped get a friend hired from the military into United 2 years ago. He left United about 4 months later for FedEX because he felt cargo was “more stable”. He’d have 4,500 pilots junior to him now at United and be able to hold 737 Captain in almost every base and 756 Captain on the West coast. He just texted me asking if I thought United would let him come back.
How times have changed.
