Unfortunately I have to agree with you on this despite working for the mediocre airline. But I do have to disagree with you on lumping the entire work force into one category as being lacking in morale. Yes the employees at USAir are beat down but we've struggled with a hostile management group for years that have taken so much from the employees while lining their pockets and bolting off the property aka; Steven Wolf and cronies, followed by Dave Seigel and his bandits, and now David Bronner and his Retirement Systems of Alabama. Each one of the above named "managers" came in, blamed all the airline's woes on labor, made rediculous marketing moves, sold off aircraft that were owned then bought new, more expensive aircraft with fewer seats and higher seat mile costs thus negating all of the cost savings that were gained with the concessionary labor contract. We, the employees, will bust our ass to make this place go. What's discouraging is that we've continued to do this for years while being led by people with absolutely no airline experience to speak of, except Steven Wolf, in recent years.
