There has to be some changes at pncl.
That wasn't a mean spirited comment, and I apologize if it came across as such. I was joking.

I understand the 9E frustration, I have been here a while and have many 9E friends.

But what can I say misery loves company.
I'm going to go all Confucious on you and say "company love misery."

I know the XJ guys have faced more direct hardships (furloughs, downsizing, etc.). The 9E guys have faced more false expectations. I think that's the root of the differences our pilot group's have at this moment in the process...

Don't worry guys, the Mesaba types have got this! This isn't their first dog and pony show.

Once again, when you proposed "actionable items" what does the rest of the group say...."you can't do that, you can't do this, bla bla bla." Nicholasblonde you have a common sense approach that doesn't mesh with the PU$$Y-footing politicians that run the mec. They need to wake up and follow in line with what other carriers have done to force a fair contract.
