Possibly. Source was one of the Sodexo (cafe) employees. I guess their contract is up in April and there hasn't been a re-bid. With management wacking away at GO jobs, the lunch crowd has gotten smaller and smaller. We'll just have to wait and see.

For all the furloughees, I know our travel benefits were degraded after 30 days to S3C for the duration of the furlough for mainline and Comair flights. But Travelnet will let us book on any DCI. Anybody had any problems with it recently. I'm looking to go from BDL to MLB in feb and want to make sure I can get on an asa flight out of ATL. Otherwise I'll go mainline to MCO.

I don't know, but I've been asking that question for a long time now.

During bankruptcy I suggested they should lease the G.O. out and move into some of the space at the old old DHL facility (the one before the huge, now empty sort facility). There's absolutely no excuse for having such an extravagant office space for a company that can't pay its bills or honor its obligations.

Isn't that the truth... what do they think they are? Fortune 500?

Bando told me the cafe in the go costs the company over 100,000 a year in subsidies to keep it there. It is a nice perk for the GO employees and students in training but not a necesity

Does anyone know the reason for the emergency union meeting yesterday to discuss our MEC's future?
