There are still people reading all this who aren’t ready to retire saying it will be fine. Not only that but militant about how great their QOL is, and how stupid everyone that left is. Absolute bananas.
They decided to ride it out and tune out the noise. The company is either going to merge, make it on its own, or go out of business. If you’re riding it out, not much to do other than go to work and let it run its course.
I believe the company will eventually liquidate. That being said I don’t want to see that happen. Tens of thousands of innocent people will lose their jobs through no fault of their own if that happens. You would have to be pretty messed up to want to see that happen. Have a little empathy. Airlines in dire stress have turned it around in the past.
