To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

​​​​I love hearing your lamentations. They're the best lamentations. Huge lamentations.


Fixed it for you.

Well two weeks ago, flight ops was almost certain they would need to furlough this spring. This week it’s new plan is adding frequency, and increase utilization of the Bus. I guess we are on a rollercoaster. I guess better news is better news. I am starting to think our corporate plan is based on our stocks daily movements.

I was at the schoolhouse last month and asked some key people about your furlough rumor. After speaking with them I decided it wasn’t worth my time to log in and debunk your garbage.

Cases are increasing, lockdowns are likely, there will be furloughs, just a matter of when not if.

At this point I don't see why anyone with a little cash on hand wouldn't wait a few months and see how the vaccine thing works out. If it does well, there will be a lot of pent-up travel demand especially recreational travel next year.

If you're too busy furloughing people to meet your customer demand, never fear, SWA will be there to save the day.

Well he already debunked himself. Not like I was waiting for it. Most people know MEA/OTZ is full of it.

Based on your entire post history it seems you want them to furlough and go bankrupt because it’s such a lousy place to be, apparently.

No, actually I don’t want furloughs nor bankruptcy, but in my view it’s pretty clear that unless something changes dramatically we will furlough. I think Alaska is far from the worst company out there, but it certainly isn’t the best either.

The flight operations center does not house any key people...Lots of khaki-clad parrots but no key people...We are going to burn 2.5 to 4 million per day for the foreseeable future. Pent up demand is a mythical talking point. Vaccine is a placebo....
