I didn't catch a warm comfy feeling for sure. I figured they're just communicating to let everyone know what the facts are and where we're at. A lot of folks would scream bloody murder if they stayed silent considering talks broke down, so this is their way of saying they're there and waiting on the Company.

Every management team to instill fear mentions comair and or pinnacle.
If you want to be at the bottom and make less that McDonald's employee does feel free to take the fear grenade and run with it.
One thing for sure, make it cheaper at regionals only means more flying on large aircraft will come and long time to get to mainline if that is your goal.
Management has time on there side, pilots don't.

I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. I am not at all threatened or have taken the "fear grenade." I think in this matter, time might be on our side than theirs (management). I was just saying that from the union e-mail, they threw "Comair" in there and I have feeling that they (the union heads) think that might be our outcome.

I just started class at xjet for the CRJ, I'm currently in ATL attending indoc and sims, we bid for our bases 2 days ago, is there any way I can find out what bases are open so I know what base I may be getting? We will get our base awards some time next week. I'm just anxious to see if I'll get my number 1 choice.

No, but.....
If your a fan of the book and her philosophy, it is kinda cool to finally see it brought to film after so many tries.
The luxury the book has, that the movies do not, is time. There is a LOT of character intro and build-up in the book that the films do not have the time to do. So, if you have read the book (as mentioned.... Preferably more than once) you will be able to follow it and enjoy it. If not, you'll find yourself often asking who the heck someone is, and what the heck they are talking about.
D'Aconia's money speech, for instance, is a major speech in the novel that gets about 45 seconds of screen time in the second movie.
All in all tho, if you enjoyed the book, it's worth your time to watch...
Now back to our regularly scheduled "concessions? Ummmmm, NO!!!!!" Thread...
