A further bonus - if you an APC member in good standing, I'll also give you a coupon for a free 20 oz mocha at my coffee shop!
I think I've still got mine if you are serious...

Did they give him a quit or be fired choice? If fired, wouldn't the union be obligated to help him get his job back?

Everything I know about AMR tells me they would do their darndest to fire him under these circumstances...they have no tolerance for weakness, and certainly would not want the embarrassment of follow-up news stories after TM is "cured" and returns to flight status.

They retracted the story and then dove into a deep bunker, been there ever since...probably sharing the same one that timmy's in.
