I'm counting on ego as a big factor. My impression is he really hates American, and I hope that translates into him wanting AA pilots to look on UAL with jealousy. That's one. Two, I do think pressure from outside may be happening. Our national picket event got some decent headlines, and contracts for pilots are hitting the news weekly as of late. Third and final, even though there's that thread on the other forum demonstrating some goobers still doing clown shows in front of passengers I'm certain that there is less of that happening by the day, and hopefully that is not being lost on management.

Anyways, time will tell. I just hope it tells us something sooner rather than later.
