Hey idle thrust, you seem like the doom and gloom type. Look at every thread you post on. It's all about an airline you know nothing about. Do us all a favor, step away from the keyboard, take a deep breath and grab a beer

The fact remains NO ONE knows what the Amigos have planned for this place. One thing is for certain, they know how to make money, which is more than can be said for most other places. Just because they keep their lips sealed isn't a direct indication of any "writing on walls" that will negatively impact our future. You could almost argue it works in their favor to not reveal information while contract negotiations trickle forward in regards to our pay rates.

Do what you want to , I don't have a dog in this fight.In my opinion, Awac management keeping closed lips on the future of the company would have me thinking twice if I worked there.They could decide to close the doors, take their cash and run on Dec 31st 2014.You wouldn't find out about it until Dec 31 2014 when they call you and tell you not to come to work anymore. Keeping closed lip about somethings are ok, the future of your company and employees, not so good.I hope and pray they don't do that to you guys.Awac is a good company, not going to deny that but just don't get caught bent over with your fruit of the looms around your ankles, unless you like that sort of thing .Lol

Except that such a thing would be a violation of the WARN Act, causing the Amigos to lose some of their cash via fine and/or class-action lawsuit, the latter of which is supported by recent case history.

Does the warn act apply to privately held companies? I thought that was just to protect shareholders and investors of publicly traded corporations? A privately held company can do what it wants to, without penalty , to a certain aspect,correct me if I'm wrong.Thx
