From: MEC Chairman, Snack Basket Committee, CA-in-training BobbyLeeSwagger
Date: 1/6/18

To my fellow Compass Aviators:

Your snack basket committee is hard at work behind the scenes as we have been attempting to renegotiate our catering contracts. Surprisingly and unfortunately, this has spilled over into a larger discussion between FFD carriers as to how our snack baskets might be divided up were we to fail. Some in the industry would posit that the customer complaints are symptomatic of a larger need to consolidate our snack baskets with other carriers. They envision our stoopwaffles going to YX, our popcorn to OO, and our belgian waffles to 9E.

However, we believe that this fear-mongering has no place in our snack baskets. Although our company has remained silent on the issue, we are confident our position is strong in 2019. We have a unique product among our peers which can't be easily replaced. Delta knows this and we are certain they will deliver an extension.

We want you to be aware, however, that there is always a chance we might have to make certain contractual concessions, pardon the pun, without a union vote in order to keep our costs down in anticipation of securing a deal. We trust you understand the delicateness of the situation and need you to do your part on the line. Keep the seats down, straps loose, and the leftover baskets available to the next crew. Meanwhile, I will personally keep you updated of the situation with the contracts, unless of course, I were to get an interview somewhere. In that case, my full attention would be on the success of myself. You understand..

Until then,

Eat snacks and fly your contract

Thank you for the question, sir. Forgive the limitations of our manuals. We actually have supplementary guidance in a separate manual: Snack Operations & Procedures manual- SOP for short. Here is an excerpt:

SOP 2-14-6:

1. Any Soda or Pop may be enjoyed in any manner fitting to the flight crew as long as it is consistent with safety.

a. exception: If the beverage is a Ginger Ale it must be enjoyed
in a brown paper bag in the forward galley prior to pushback
provided that:

i. the Ginger Ale can has been washed by FA-A or a legal
company representative
ii. the Ginger Ale has been pre-chilled IAW applicable dry
ice policy

Look, all the life lessons you need are in Forrest Gump. Remember what Forrest Gump's mama said? "Dying is a part of life." that's how the airlines are, right? These things will happen, but you can't let it get you down or stressed or start panicking. You just got to make the best decision you can in the situations you find yourself in. I know right now it feels like Compass Airlines is like that little boy Forrest Gump on the bus with nobody giving him a seat... "tayyken" they say.... And little Forrest doesn't know what to do.

But remember when Jenny appears? and says "you can sit heeaaa." So, see? it all works out in the end.

We're trying to cheer you up, but right now you're acting like Lieutenant Dan with no legs in the hospital refusing to take the ice cream Forrest got him.

Take the ice cream homie

Sadly, that opportunity may have come and gone. How many regional CEOs have tried to play hardball with Delta and lost?
