Shocked there are so many on here living in fear. Feel kinda sorry for you.

Would be nice to somehow negotiate the “sale” of the Longacres simulator building into this rumored Max order, say we buy 50 jets for whatever price and then ask they throw the building into the deal for $1. We are tight on simulator space and our Max sim is already out there. Boeing might just go for it to get the unneeded real estate off their books. And AS is short on simulator space as it is.

I’m just hoping I have a job in 2021. I couldn’t hold the 6-24 month leave due to seniority and lost out on some good job opportunities. Still haven’t been called in on short call this entire month.

This can’t last forever

Agreed, I missed out on job opportunities as well, and if forced to the street it’s going to rough. I was too junior as well to hold 18-24 month line.

Did you guys bid for leave of absence , since you had good job opportunities ?

Second, we've actually seen first hand college kids blatantly disregarding the guidelines with their stupid behavior.

I saw a chart from 10/5 listing 50 university’s and reported positive cases totaling 69,444. 3 hospitalizations and 0 deaths within that group. I say let them spread it like wildfire but just keep them on campus where it can stay contained. By Christmas all will have had it and it is safe to return to visit family.

God I’m such an ingrate what was I thinking. I just should have volunteered to leave without pay [emoji2357]
