If its on F.I. it must me true. And I do not think we have any hot FA's, but the name sound hot.

Its hot sounding because of the porn-star style of alliterating trailer park names.

And there are a handful of hot FAs here. I just never fly with them.

F/A rumors are the best...

Now I know it's not true!




It's Tuesday! Time for a new President!

Anyone talk to the new prez yet? (via email or otherwise) I'm sure he's busy settling in, but I heard from the compass guys he is pretty good about answering emails and being straight with people. Make him earn his paycheck and get some answers from him.

What do you guys expect him to say? "Yes, we plan on going out of business end of 2009, but shhhh! It's a secret! So keep coming to work and we'll keep the status quo."

If he even answers, it'll be the basic "I understand your concerns, but our cost structure puts us at a disadvantage and we need to reduce costs our Delta won't look favorably upon us."

Latest from "my source," definately another round of displacements and furloughs in first quarter of 09'. Recieved this information this morning.
Sorry guys, hope for a drastic change but for now that is the plan.

Ya figured that was coming... I suppose this latest displacement bid and furlough announcement won't be the last. Good luck to those of you staying on the sinking ship.
