Default I Quit SWA FB Group

How many folks here know about the hidden FB group “I quit SWA”? I’m coming up on submitting my 2 week notification to go to a legacy carrier and was surprised to know about this group and knowing I’m not the only one trying to get out.

It’s pretty dead these days. I️ was considering leaving for a while and joined. It had some life to it during contract negotiations and some useful info but you can get better and more up to date info elsewhere.

The union e-mails and a recent company info exactly spelled out the numbers of people leaving. So it is no secret that some people are leaving. Everybody has different priorities in life, which is good. It would not be helpful if everybody wanted to work for SWA.

How many have left in the last two years? I’m not leaving, but curious.

So that implies that over a hundred left last year?

I think they’re only counting yr 1-5 guys since beyond that the likelihood of starting over is low.
