Although I will say in my category, they cancelled flights and while I didn't throw in for a GS, at 40%ish in category I wasn't senior enough to get one. Well, except one that went out as GS #2 but it would conflict with my Monday trip. I could've gotten a WS, those went out.
But I didn't get a single robo call.
Yet they cancelled 717 flights for lack of 717 crews.
Maybe Jughead was right, the common denominator for me and all of my rejections in life is... me.
I need to learn to drink.

Is anyone else having trouble with Icrew loading?
Nevermind. It's a Firefox problem.

BiigD, we only take degenerates here, if you're not a degenerate then you are still allowed to hang out here until you become one, then you're allowed to stay. If you're a degenerate now then you're allowed to stay.

We also need more schedulers/planners. We have the biggest, baddest hub in the galaxy right in thunderstorm alley with occasional (but inevitable) ice storms in the winter. Staffing for fair weather is penny wise and dollar foolish.
Good thing we're not blowing billions on one time "shareholder returns"

IOW, it really didn't matter, and here we are in pain because of it.

Everyone should keep in mind that if you stand in a very public place with a megaphone screaming your employer sucks you might find that one day they get tired of it.
Be careful in the online world.

To be honest, now that i think about it, nobody really ever says they suck. They do however talk about specific items of contention where an improvement is needed or that they have the right to do what they do it's just in their financial interest not ours.
