What would you call them out on slow? Would you scold them about their lack of desire to achieve an industry leading contract? Or would you scold them for saying it publicly?

A win's a win.

First, this is a fun year. We're only supposed to win 5 and we're reigning national champs and home of the Heisman. No expectations and lots to celebrate as everyone strives to be what you just did. This is fun, it's never been this relaxing. Auburn fans aren't unrealistic, we think 7 or 8+ is great this year, 2012 not so much.

Second, that was a win loss.

In a win loss the coach can yell and penalize and kick butts on Monday but you dint have an L and you can be proud they persevered and won. Win loss. Coaches love that. But Utah St has a heck of a QB and team, they executed great.

We see it flying, you screw up everything on a flight have a lousy approach buy save it and grease the landing... win loss.

Newk knows no such thing. He's bi-winning, as in win win. I heard he knighted the Queen on a Heathrow overnight.

On a mainline flight, that should not have happened. The RS & OO pass riders should have been S3C.

Make sure to report it because I know there are agents who seem to like to manipulate the standby codes to get certain people on, at the expense of those who should have.

Look, I already have, it happened, and I'm not "outing them" on an anonymous board. I wrote them, my own reps, and a Capt rep I personally know at another base. Just understand again that some LECs have differing views.

Carl,

Everyone at the Q&A was disgusted. I think the DPA signed up an extra 100 that day alone.

If they stated their views publicly, then you're not really outing them by identifying them, are you?

This sounds eerily familiar. We're only supposed to get a 3% raise and we used to be the highest paid and home of the pension. No expectations and lots to celebrate as everyone strives to be what you just did. Anything better than that and it will be a fantastic year. :D

Bill, Why would you be outing them? If this is their position then its their position and they should be happy to defend it. So at the meeting these reps stated that we could not expect or achieve SWA wages. Whats the big deal in telling us who they are? It was a public meeting correct?

I already wrote them, so in essence outing them would "out" me. I don't know if they know you personally. When will you guys learn? This is an anonymous board, and I want to keep it that way. Make sense? Instead of prodding me, how about you call your own reps and make sure they want what most of us want, for them to not manage our expectations, and to go for what we deserve, SWA/Airtran plus.
