Ahh, the dog days of summer have now come to a close, pumpkin patches will soon be in bloom. Fall leaves be fallin any day now, I can taste that Christmas Ham already,(unless of course you’re forced Tdy’d, or H.O.M. based, in that case you be eating a semi-warmed Salisbury steak t.v. dinner, because the Denny’s crew got xmas eve off). The chill in the air will be felt all over our beautiful sunny, summer hot bases, with the exception of BLI of course, you guys are always freezing. I digress, I’m feeling all “Informational Pickety”. Its time. Its time for the dry run. It’s time to wipe that convenient obtuse indifference off their smug faces.

To all of our prospective new hires that attend the next job fair, if you feel so bold, ask some simple questions about our H.O.M., a.k.a, home-basing, home-based, or whatever their calling it. It sounds like a gem to us, we know little about it. Of course that’s intentional. The less you put down on paper, the less violation of RLA status quo law suits you would have to defend, as they are now.

1) How many days off are you guaranteed?
2) Are you positive spaced before the month, after the month and/or during the month? What I’m getting at is can you get me home to my real home, during the month, on a positive space ticket?

Question for Allegiant guys....

I know 2 guys that interviewed there, 1 hired and 1 wasn't. They were both told by mgmt that upgrade is only 4 months. Is there any truth to this? It sounds like a ploy, maybe I'm wrong.

So what's the truth?

He earned it.

1. He's kept you guys from getting an industry standard contract.
2. He's kept the certificate in the face of over 30 engine failures.
3. He's kept the stock price up.

"Creating value for our shareholders." Now where have I heard that before?

Wow, thirty engine failures! Man, I didn’t know it was that many! Could someone more mathematically inclined ratio that out, in comparison to like carriers. I’m sure that number is glaring. ValuJet anyone?

So I guess when he said he'd be in negotiations today he really meant he'd be cashing in on our sacrifices to the tune of $25 million. He was a no show for negotiations.

He be negotiating his stock options right out of the market baby! Ya, that’s what he meant.

And none of us are surprised or disappointed, because it’s the only status quo they will adhere to; stalling and placating.

The upgrade does seem to be getting that low. But, be careful what you wish for. The inmates are running the asylum.
