Sooo, I'm guessing some guys bid CA upgrade and were bypassed for lack of hours and this provision came into play.

I would love to hear more about it from someone who was directly involved. It did suck to be promised upgrade only to have it yanked a week later.


That's exactly what happened. Guys that were 75 or less hours away were bidding and getting bypassed by the company because they didn't have 1k even though the contract allowed it so they had to re run the bid per the contract

A big part of their problem was holding off on hiring in 2014, for this year's needs.

Been thinking this for a long time now.

I was talking about Compass....the whole world doesn't revolve around SKW as much as you'd like it to. Notice that this is a Compass Thread...I have no idea what other airline's execs do. I DO know that our executives don't do ride-alongs to see what they're actually in charge of. If they do then they're doing it in secret and should be fired for their complete inability to run an airline or come up with ways to solve basic issues. I can't STAND getting emails from the high-ups saying we need to do better.

AB is a nice fish. I toss him back in the water every time just so I can reel him in again. Puts up a little fight, but still swims off like a good boy whenever I cut the line loose. Heck, by now the guy probably has 15 hooks lodged in his big mouth. It's like catching a 300lb 74 year old sea turtle trolling along at 25 knots drinking a beer. No skill needed, it's still fun.
