They should just close both and send us all to Seattle. 🙄

I think that’s probably right on the money. Watch the initial reaction by the execs when asked about pilots at the investor relations video.

Culturally: Have y’all seen the new “Care Bell” promo? If Dunder Mufflin was an airline, and Michael Scott put together an add campaign. Epic.

Ah yes, "The Office," a sitcom from the mid 2000's. And the "more cowbell" skit from SNL, from 2000. Very in character for Alaska Airlines to be hamfistedly parodying those relics, twenty years behind the times as always!

250-300 a year hiring through 2026… if they all stayed😂

Don’t laugh too hard, displacement bid is supposed to be out… soon 🤔 maybe April 1st

Well… come on, lets hear. I guess I am just really good at guessing… Right twice a day!

Start your clock FlapsZERO

Just seen rough draft of the follow up bid… LAX 320 ZERO JAN 31/2023😱 SFO ZERO period OCT 31/2024

That should have been SFO closing 10/31/2023

SD is still saying SFO will open a 73 base late this year, close A320 SFO base early 2023🤔 I still put the odds at 3 to 1 SFO closes.

Drink much? Maybe you need another edit.

SCP (SD) just sent email indicating: "The following bid, effective in early 2023, will fully close the SFO Airbus base and fully staff the SFO Boeing base."

Who is "confused", him or you?


Cheers - Rob.

Yeah for a second I thought you were tooting your own horn for being wrong.

Plus what’s it matter when we are on the verge of collapse because the company expects us to work on out days off
