That had been a question from a lot of people to the training manager while we were still in TX. Naturally there was no answer. While I am not one of those under contract, I really hope they aren't help to $5K...especially since they were taxed on the money.

(...I was in the class right before the first 20 furloughs...sigh)

This is just the beginning of changes and down sizing at Eagle. Sad---but true.

Yup, They will trickle out the furloughs (Here, and at American) for maximum negotiation leverage.

All union leadership needs to be fired, and that letter only makes me sick to my stomach. God help us all.

Sorry to hear what's happening over there guys. It truly sucks.

Has management done anything to offer voluntary leave of absences to help mitigate some of these furloughs?

I have a couple of old students over there who are pretty junior....what DOH do the furloughs go to?

No LOAs, LTLOA, part-time line or zero time lines have been offered by the company.

Looks to me like it will go to a 11/7/11 DOH except for the top 3 in that class...
