Don't forget you get something like 9 more months of unemployment payments when you file a UI extension.... And Oh... You just got a raise too thanks to Mr. Obama! $25 more a week!!

If I can't hold long call I think my days at Comair are numbered! Not that that's necessarily a bad thing.

You should be able to hold at least long call. I believe (don't qoute me) that 40% of reserves must be long call (60%) short call. If this is correct you should be able to hold long call, until they change your window the day before

How do you file an UI extension for NY? Is it really 9 months or 9 weeks?

This was an update from SkyWest's COO. So I only know what he said. Just wondering if you guys had heard anything about it. I'm not sure why they (lines or aircraft) are going Comair instead of any other DCI. Maybe MESA's losing these lines or aircraft out of JFK or CVG?

6 aircraft/routes won't stop the beating at Comair. It might just feel like the guy holding the whip pauses and turns his head for a second before he cracks t again.

Shouldn't we at least be allowed that much?
