Then why be embarrassed?

We have good pilots and people where I work. It's just sometimes i feel like I pulled up to the country club party in a green Pinto.

Anyway back to the subject. There was a news article on google several months ago about Republic and AA ordering 100 RJ's from Embraer. Did no one see this? Just from what I'm seeing now, I know there are quiet a few pilots on the streets, but most of these guys aren't showing up to these regional interviews. If regionals are having a hard time filling classes now, wait 3 years. Mainline will eventually get this flying back.

Where does it say they ordered 100 RJs for AA? And it dates back to September. Months before the AA TA. How would they have done that with no contract?

I can't even begin to count the amount of people I hear or see do it on Facebook.

It does make one laugh just a bit though

That's strange... my check says "American Airlines" on it...

What does it say on their deposit the bank gets? That's who they work for.
