And, no, I'm not bitter!
The timing probably has more to do with positioning the company to bid for some upcoming flying for our 50 seaters we're losing out of the DCI system. I really don't think the PBS work has ANYTHING AT ALL to do with the effective date on the last round of furlough's. I understand it's easy to be mad at the union/company/industry/world when you get furloughed but you have got to be on board with what is better for the company in regards to getting more flying so you can get your butt back in the seat. Would you be happier if the was still a wall between the union and company regarding PBS so we can remain one of the most expensive bids for any flying we try and get?
