CLT reps said Scheduling Committee received prelim award last night. It had errors, AA now trying to fix it. This was an email they sent out.

Rather the errors get fixed now and not cause undo stress for anyone. Image if you were displaced to a new base and equipment....only to find out in a few weeks it was an error and none of that is happening, or visa versa. It would really suck if you thought you were safe, only to find out weeks later your life has been turned upside down. I love the jokes about old computers and computer programs running the bid. I wish. It’s done by hand, by planning employees. Literally using pencils and paper to figure it out. Pencils have an eraser for a reason.....that’s why they use them.

I dont disagree with your assessment. But it only goes to show that even after several weeks the company hasn't got its act together. This is nothing new for long timers and I expect much more of this in the future weeks and months. Ive been told by many before that there is no rudder for this ship...and these folks were in management.
