Jesus, where do I even start? How about this.......if your union (with the strong-armed help of your CEO) hadn't insisted on taking all of our 737 cptn seats and now essentially most of our 717 cptn seats (due to their early departure), then perhaps the downgrading AirTran cptns wouldn't be bumping down your F/Os after they transition over.
They're getting what they deserve. This whole thing about "whaaa, I'm getting bumped out of my base because AirTran pilots senior to me are coming in above me" is SO comical. You guys wanted your downgrades, now deal with the consequences. This one in particular I'm sure most of your seat-hungry F/Os never even thought about, but it's music to our ears when we hear a SWA.......er.........excuse me, RSW F/O *****ing about sliding back in their seat and base because of AirTran pilots transitioning over. Hell, it's not nearly enough to consider karma to have played its full part, but it's a start.
