Why wouldn't you? They are your colleagues, and unionized workers, too. What's your issue with them? They have every right to be mad!

There are bigger and better things to talk about other than a FA printed contract.

Yes, and you will go ahead of all the airtran pilots. Plus PCL will provide free 737 types as a severance package.

Seriously? Dude, give it a break! You come on here throwing around these incendiary remarks trying to start some sh!t during a time when there are going to be a LOT of people out on the street, myself included. What in god's name is wrong with you? Do you hate yourself that bad that you have to try to make everyone else as miserable as you? GO AWAY FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY!

I believe he was talking about frontier, when he was working there.

He was talking about the Frontier bankruptcy when Southwest and Republic came in to make competing bids to the management teams plan. Was making the point that the creditors committee has a lot of clout and can do what it wants to get the most return on what they are owed. In other words, we'll do what we can and put a good plan together, but if an outside entity comes up with a better plan in the creditors eyes then everyone is screwed.....
