I have acknowledged that there is plenty of pain on both sides.

Why can't you?

Exactly, the absolute and total lack of empathy and respect for those that have experienced sex crimes is sickening.

As someone who has sat next to a hospital bed holding the hand of a beloved family member subjected to a mercilessly violent sex crime, your cavalier reference appalls me.

But hey, keep spewing BS. Guess what, I'm a 8.5 yr FO whose upgrade is now projected at 18+ bc of this deal. You think I ever wanted anything to do with AirTran ??????? Guess how much of a career pay cut I'm taking??? But that doesn't seem to register with you guys. You think I'm happy SWAPA senior insiders negotiated themselves an upgrade and didn't get jack in money, stock, etc. for anyone else???? You think I'm happy the 717 went away??? I go to work, do my job, and be polite as I can be. I wont go out of my way to be a pr*ck like you apparently do. Grow up. It wasn't just guys on your side of the fence that were affected.

Don't tell Whack about your plight, only HE got screwed.

Classless? No I think in this case it's a fairly accurate way of describing what happened to our seniority and seats, or perhaps blackmail might be a better descriptor.

Classless is what your union and company pulled behind closed doors to orchestrate that raping/blackmail.

I sincerely hope and pray you never have a family member or friend be subject to such a cruel and tortuous crime that would make you realize how utterly insensitive, atrocious and classless your remarks are.

You guys really underestimate how much animosity there is for you due to the raping of our seniority and seats.
You know whack......that is pretty sad. Your friend doesn't know me or any of us and he hates us. Sad, real sad. I actually felt sorry for him that transitioning over would be so horrible. Maybe some of you should go to West Africa (as I did about a year ago) and see what true suffering is. NO ONE in the USA has it that bad. Pathetic whiners with no perspective on what true misery is.

The Oscar

The misery for those is West Africa is only getting worse(exponentially). Americans have something to complain about? Not!

Because the pain is GREATLY skewed to our side. That's why.

I don't lack any empathy towards victims of sex crimes. As a matter of fact, rapists and child sexual abusers should be given life in prison at the very least. However horrific your experience was, you'll just have to get over the fact that people will use the word "rape" in a figurative sense many times during your lifetime.

So while it's unfortunate that you and your loved ones have had to suffer through something so heinous, please don't try to guilt me into feeling bad about using the word "rape" when it comes to what SWAPA and the company coconspired to do to the AT pilots.

Really Oscar?! Now you're trying to tie the Ebola condition in West Africa in with a discussion about a one-sided SLI. How stupid do you think I am?

I think I have a fine enough perspective on life and know how to count my blessings especially given my family's background. Again, this bull$h!t maneuver of trying to make me feel guilty about being so p!$$ed off about the SLI is completely asinine. Way to dodge the facts about what your union and company did to rape us of our seniority. It's YOU that should be shamed and feeling guilty about it, and for the record I've been to West Africa and hauled refugees out of there.
