Just saw this posting on the union website.....seems to be credible.
Anyone here know anything?

Whack,
I hope you are wrong on the merger talk.
But, if the hiring freeze is true then in my opinion it is either one of two things:
1 -Merger
2- The FAA safety audit that was just announced is going to cause the FAA to delay our ETOPS certification and all that Hawaii flying that we have been hiring for is still a long ways away..
I hope you are wrong on the merger talk.

I was thinking they meant Spirit but perhaps it’s ALA.

You guys need to take a deep breath and step away from your computers. Take a walk. Have a drink. I’m the most glass half empty person around and if I’M not concerned, you shouldn’t be either.
