Okay, I'm going to have to stop with the Brian Williams jokes, basically if he is referenced nothing is real in the post.

I didn't go to my own graduation for work and family issues. I've never gotten closure, sometimes I have nightmares I didn't graduate. Even though I see my degree in the wall. of course I have nightmares I forgot to get my multi engine license even though I'm an airline pilot.

And last night I had a dream that I forgot my ID at home but I was already at the Cleveland airport showing up from overnight. Worst part I was late and just realized I also brought my handgun and don't know what to do. Of course after I woke up I remembered I don't own a handgun.


Now, just imagine if I drank what would happen.

He heard wrong. That is 100 percent untrue.

Now that being said, I have no doubt that the reason the conference call went down as it did was to make sure that if there was no clear consensus to trade it, to make sure there also wasn't official "direction" so as to give the NC the flexibility needed to make the deal.

Although Carl is wrong, the way it was handled was just as as bad in my mind as if they had gone against specific direction from the MEC.

Profit sharing removed.

The MEC said the pilots didn't want to give up profit sharing so they shot it down.

I wonder if there is a way to look up if those 33 were "supported" by A4A... and who gets to play good cop, and who is the bad cop?
