Same with Adelita’s but they don’t follow you home.

yeah, because in airline history, mergers have only happened once or twice and aren’t a recurring phenomena that have happened multiple times every decade.

Well...we do have several of those, especially at the Lukewaffe Base.

Recurrent this month had kool-aid peddlers I mean management reps tell us that we are in strict survival mode and all non-survival based projects are shut down for now. I think mergers are not a WN priority for a long time.

It's amazing how few people understand how damaged the economy has already become. This second wave is like backing the car up and running that squirrel over again to take it out of it's misery. We've been in a recession since February. Even if the 'Rona vanished tomorrow I think we'd still see massive furloughs.

It probably hasn't hit rock bottom yet.

But if Rona up and vanished (ie vaccine) that would likely mitigate furloughs since managers (at any airline) would be able to predict a recovery trajectory based on economic conditions alone, and might be afraid to get caught with their pants down with SWA on the prowl.
