We all need to be a bit more realistic when refer to the decisions of the management as Dad or Daddy...It's more like what Grandpa says. Our old grandpa who just sits by the window and watches when little kids get on the lawn that he just finished raking, but he's too scared to go out and yell at them, so he just sits inside and grumbles to himself instead of doing something about it. So get him another beer to calm him down, and soon enough (like this company) it will all be over.

Grandpa smells funny and is talking to the lawn ornaments again.

Aw gramps...

I'm considering lots of creative job options for when piedmont folds...drug pusher and prostitution come to mind, it won't be a much different management attitude than what i'm working under now...

I'm considering being a looper for the dalai lama. A looper, you know, a caddy, a jock.

Should 60 yr old pilots retire so you don't "loose" your job?

I think they should I mean its not our fault that our fathers partied to hard and went through 3 wife's. Now they are screwed financially and have to retire at 65.

Exactly. When do you think you will retire?

Heads up it seems CASS is down at least for Piedmont, I tried both NWA/Delta and US in MSP this morning.

Before 65, that's for sure. Nooooooo Way I want to work that long. I didn't want to work until 60.

You tried it with the new changes in mind? I think its employee # only now (without EN) and US as your carrier code. That changed just a few weeks ago.
