I'm at the CVG airport viewing area watching my former job and aspirations pass before me It isn't all depressing though... there are bunches of little tikes and kids here enjoying what's left of this wasteland. Had some Qdoba and a lot of time to kill. By the way, I'm not one of the apathetic furloughees everybody speaks of on here now. I am a furloughee, but I've moved on... hope it gets better for those left, but it's hard to give a damn about Comair, or the airlines in general, anymore.

That's my opinion/wish/hope/(semi) educated guess. Which btw, would make me very happy. Only time will tell.

Isn't it refreshing to watch all the ERJs landing on 18L and think how those would all be Comair CRJs if we didn't put up such a fuss back in 2001?

Sure, we got cut in half and sent to JFK, but at least we had an industry-leading contract for 3 1/2 years.

By the way, it's not just furloughs that find it hard to give a damm about Comair anymore.

Yea, all those stupid ERJs with their stupid extreme nose high landing roundout... what do they think they're flying, the space shuttle? The have an industry leading landing roundout.

And, yes, the burrito came from the Mall Road Qdoba... except it was a Fajita Ranchera burrito. I had LOTS of time to kill in Northern KY today. I went to the Wal-Mart there in Florence (ya'll) to get a new broom. Geez, you should see how packed that Wal-Mart is on a Thursday afternoon... insane.

I know this may sound harsh but out of all you furloughed guys and gals, who is actually happy they were F'd as compared to being on the very bottom in JF'nK? (I'm assuming mostly commuters). With Obama giving over 1 year unemployment and me fast approaching a furlough myself, I can't help but think maybe a furlough would be better than commuting to JFK on short call. Am i the only one who feels this way?
