They will extend it, and it will drag on and on and on. Like counting to your child and using fractions as you get closer to the number three.

2, 2-1/2, 2-3/4, 2-7/8, 2-15/16......

I, for one, will cut the EB some slack as they conclude this drive. Contrary to a lot of postings, a "class and craft" ruling is not a slam dunk...if it were, THAT would be Plan A and the accretion process would be another plan. As much as I will hate flying with some of these pogues over my remaining years, it is far better to have them on our list than to simply "wish" them away with an uncertain NPRM ruling. In any case, I don't believe a contract will be ratified that has MEF as the status quo.

Translation: The recruitment drive has failed. We knew they were never all going to come over, but none came over or at least not enough to matter. We still believe that a unicorn may be within lasso range any time now.

And the MEF injunction will happen the first hour of flying they do with anyone on the street.

They will never furlough, your fine

if they do furlough...

They will only furlough enough to get the RIF

It wont last any longer than six months

The system is at its breaking point (good one)

You will be recalled the first week in December. (a really good one)

or, my favorite.....

More nonsense from jungle! Fantastic!

Jungle, are you a member of any IPA committees or do you volunteer any time for the IPA?

Yeah, that's what I thought
