B. There's a guy really worried about the economy and trying to get reelected, I expect a lot of pressure from the government not to lay off employees. Hopefully that will be enough. |
It’s as if some people don’t realize that some of us are still on first year pay, and came from low paying regional jobs.
Not all of us have been making $100k+ the last five years. When I hit second year pay, 4/1, it will literally be the most I’ve ever made in my life. As much as I can plan for a rainy day, getting through first year was already part of that, so any attitude of “if you can’t be ready financially you’re wrong, blah blah” can go pound sand. And I’ve been downgraded and through two furloughs before. Some of you just don’t get we haven’t all had these magical careers. |

I guess I was trying to have people become aware that it will become an issue and I want to do whatever I can to keep people from getting furloughed. But BlueDude gimmie your employee number so I can avoid bidding with a fine individual as yourself

I was asking someone else, they weren’t sure. Is the 50 hour line a no flying at all line? Or only fly 50 hours. And is it one month at a time?

The union won’t tell you not to pick anything up, they are too busy picking everything up to take the time to send comms out

I pity your attitude. I actually have no debt. No car payment. No house payments. I was amazingly enough thinking of the people with families that need to fly to lines. I can live on 40hrs. I’ve been furloughed. Been through a bankruptcy. But thank you for assuming my pitiful situation for try to think of my peers. I love this site

They may have been in LSC last week, however some were doing VDA’s and RSA’s during negotiations. Get yours while you can, especially in BOS!
