There's an old saying, flying is the easy part. Forget about the flying for a second. There's a MX issue, so we gotta talk to MX and then the gate, and ramp and ops, and then the FA and blah blah blah f' blah.

Nah, they did all that. FA might come in and ask about the delay, but they know thanks to everyone talking to each other.

Well stupid JFK shut down to arrivals, we gotta go back but first we need to get a gate- oh.... you mean they handle that? wow.

Alright, what about when the diversion happens, we gotta let them- ok they know already. Wow. There's our gate. ... OK. What do we do here?

Certainly this whole day got shot to crap, now we gotta get a hotel... theres a WHOLE section that just gets rooms? So wait, there's two different scheduling departments and a whole third one that just gets hotel rooms? What do you mean do I want downtown or by the airport? They gave you an option? Get the by the airport one I guess and I'll call and get the shuttle coming... -oh. that too? Do I do anything here? OH drink the beers you buy me. ... yeah I can do that!

Go to work, turn all your regional spidey senses down to a 1, and just coast.

Also, he's laughing because he's the worst OO troll. Like, he's bad at it. He's not entertaining at all.

That’s what most airlines are like. I’d suggest learning and the proactive part tho.

Varsity

Most airlines or most legacy airlines?

I've worked at 2 regionals and neither held your hand like that.

I actually laughed out loud at that one, apology not necessary - he does provide entertainment after all 😉.

I’m laughing because it doesn’t make a difference. I interviewed with Envoy (flow), seemed like really great people, but it was a cupcake interview, easy as it gets. Sorry should have been more clear, now I got the Kool-Aid drinkers throwing shade.

LAXtoDEN

Anyone who calls out the BS gets thrown on the troll list. Keep drinking that Kool-Aid brother. Anything bad let’s just hide it, anything good let’s hype it up right Niner?

I can't tell if we're talking past each other, or if you are just misunderstanding my point about things being a different paradigm. Either way, that is the most mind numbing drivel of an answer I've had in a long time. I spent a decade at regionals, I'm not saying forget how to be proactive, I'm saying imagine going to work and being able to turn it down to a 1 and the wheels don't fall off the bus.

Niner, not healthy to let me live rent free in that head of yours. What is curious is the gaggle of you Endeavor guys on here that that foam at the mouth with anything regarding OO. At one time it was kinda of funny, now getting to the point where it is an unhealthy obsession. At what point are you going to start stalking my profile and posts like Meow does? I just want to be prepared when it happens.
