Your ranking doesn't really make sense since the 757s have the same interiors as the 737s if you're working at the only operator that has those and A220s...
Since no one asked, as I was trying to just be a lurker this time... were they already on the aircraft when the FA had to reassure them it was a Boeing?

Rapid growth is dangerous. We are getting rid of unfavorable lease rates. No one said SWA was stupid for selling their 717s to Delta. Single fleet types are more profitable for airlines of our size.
Why is anyone worried? If our mangement is wrong and we fail we get bought. Since we have the worst contact in the industry, the company that buys us is bound to have a better one. Enjoy the ride.

However, we need to concern ourselves with becoming or remaining the most professional pilot group in the industry while working towards the best contract possible in 2020. Those are the only issues we actually have control over.

Just like Braniff and Eastern's management was wrong and they got bought? No, they weren't bought; they put a bunch of folks on the street. Which could also be a real possibility for us if our management is wrong. Then we would all be looking for jobs starting at first year pay and seniority again. It wouldn't be the first time that has happened in this industry, although I don't think it is a significant concern for us in the short term.

Oh no our best and brightest are on it again. Fly the Bus, don’t throw tantrums, we will be just fine. It’s almost spring, before you know it May 4th and Summer will be here. You guys and all you anger and hate. Heartache, stroke, there is even a link to cancer. At this rate the whole L-VX seniority will medical out in15 years early. It’s a job

Since the summer, the schedules appear to have gotten consistently worse each month. And the bidding is the worst system I’ve ever seen. It takes many hours to accomplish what we used to be able to do in 30 minutes. Except for those instances when I volunteer my time, I’d like the vast majority of my time here to be spent with the door shut and engines running.
