Bar,
As a long time "lurker", I've read many of your posts, and agreed with a majority of them. This one, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with you sir. (Short story made long below)
I used to work for a regional based in the midwest. That regional in 2005 moved their entire operation, other than HQ, to the East Coast. Said regional referenced was Air Wisconsin. Anyway, I commuted on NWA from my N.D. home, and it was more the norm than the exception that I received a first class seat. This due to the generosity of all involved in the airline operation. (i.e. Agents, Flight attendants, and cockpit crew) <Can I even say "cockpit" these days?>
So, to enlighten your thoughts of it being a f-NWA policy that does not allow for crewmembers in First Class, as I said above, I will disagree with you on this opinion.
Secondly, according to your previous posts and thoughts of "lost status quo", the constant outsourcing of our jobs to the lowest bidder, (i.e. regionals flying the Delta 100-seater), and furloughs this fall, I've included a website that might be helpful for changing your opinion, or hopefully at least reducing a slight amount of stress in your life.
Finally, it's 30 degrees in N.D. right now. Sun is shining, no wind, and nothing to worry about for at least another month until the Red River reaches it's record breaking 500 year flood levels again, for the second year in a row.
(When you guys bidding the best base in the system? MSP)
