Make believe numbers. Many companies traded below a buck for years without threat of delisting, no less “out of a job”.

Are you on an airline seniority list, do you really think there’s no possibility of mass furlough

I think massive furloughs are a possibility but I think the one fella was speaking to liquidation...

Well you’re trying to change your position.

you stated the stock could go to $2 and we would be out of a job.

Furlough isn’t based on a stock price, no less a random price target of $2.

Sure we can have furloughs, but not based on a specific price of the stock.

If the travel industry so bad that their were furloughs. The stock would be severely depressed . Can you babe an airline that has ever started mass furloughs that did not have it stock tank before the furlough started

That’s like saying “have you ever seen it rain without there being clouds in the sky first?”

of course not.

Having a stock lose 80% of its value clearly points to furloughs vs growth. But again, your position was $2 and mass furloughs. My position is a price target is a reliable as saying “somewhere before bankruptcy”.

that was not my position. My position is do not buy stock in your own airline because if you do find yourself about to be furloughed, the stock will be down at the time you need the money the most. I never said low stock price causes furloughs. I would like you to show me were I said that

The only way there are furloughs is if people stop flying on our airplanes. Our stock has been all over the place the past year and we have been growing like normal

Your quote

Im not going to go back and forth as you try and justify ”what is, is”. Bigger issues than dealing with you.
