Isn't all of this just the noise of boredom?

Do you really think management is going to “confirm” anything to you or me? I mean, the JPWG couldn’t even comment on the PBS RFPs until a contract was signed. You’re talking about a deal worth hundreds of millions. And you really think we’ll be privy to any of it? Please...

It’s not a secret man! Spirit needs another order ASAP. Up to you what to believe... mister CEO himself is coming around all the bases. Ask for yourself.

It’s not a secret that Spirit has stated publicly that they’d like to grow and are considering options, options that include a fleet expansion. That’s it. If you think upper management is really going to disclose to you any details of an RFP, one that could very well define their careers and those on the other side of the table...well, you’re just gullible. If you want the winning lottery numbers too maybe ask Ted on one of his visits since he’s on a roll. I haven’t been to a crew room in months and see no reason to break the streak.

Valid points you make. Hardly gullible though, but I get it. We will just wait and see.

Dude, if you’re buying off on any of the yellow-and-black streamers and high five propaganda...yes, that’s gullible. But glad you see the err in your ways. Now grab me some extra sani-wipes and stay the heck away from crew rooms.

Pilot only sleep rooms too.

Pilots and FA's need separate crew rooms and separate sleep rooms. Trying to sleep while having to listen to gosup sucks!
