their paralyzing fear of change is going to be the downfall. In my past corporate life, this type of performance would lead to a reorganization of the BOD/Execs.. here it’s as if they just don’t care or like most with severe issues, are waiting it’s almost too late to fix them.

Or just stop trying to be the CEO. They'll either get it figured out or they won't. Either way... keep cashing their checks until they stop coming. And have a damn drink.

id make a damn good one! This place would turn around in a hurry.


Edit: they just announced 1.5% profit sharing. Funny how they do it today and not at the rally tmw. Even they must be embarrassed.

Now that the profit sharing number is official, can the pollyannas come back and tell me how I'm making more than Delta again. It's just like old times. For 3 minutes on paper, we are higher than Delta. Then we aren't.

exactly. At the road shows they kept saying our LCO will put us over the top. Um delta has LCO as well.
And at the same time tell us the goal of LCO is to get rid if reroutes.
We need a different PS calculation for pilots.

I heard the goal of LCO was to make it costly if they do do reroutes since the override pays above any rig instead of being absorbed by it.

My last trip just paid me an extra $2500 in LCO. Would’ve been absorbed by the ADG rig last week.

Anyone above the age of 5 could fill the shoes of our current CEO. BJ is a puppet, GK did not even trust him to come out of his hole during the meltdown or talk to the senate committee.


A well paid puppet, but still a puppet.

Scott said it was the goal to stop the reroutes, however, he also said it would take probably 2 yrs for them to figure it out.
Personally I think LCO is a good thing. I'm looking forward to experimenting with it, but the footprint option ( select if you want to be messed with or not) doesnt happen till q42025.
So by then the company should have a good handle on how to optimize the sodimizer.
