Whats your idea of a long time? A year, 2 years? I agree that Mgmt doesn't have a clue what is going on and I think the fluctuating oil prices are making their tiny brains spin. I could see them doing an about face on parking the planes if we could see a drop in the price of oil to around $80-90.

My whole new hire class turns into pumpkins at the end of September. None of us have been scheduled for our PCs so I assumed they were just going to let us sit at home for a month or two until we got furloughed. Apparently, TK has a list of all the people going NQ and they plan on getting us our PCs in October. I'll believe it when I'm actually sitting in the simulator.
