Anybody want to make up an absurd rumor to get me by another 24-48 hours?

I feel like a kid....waiting for punishment to be handed down from my parents for a window I broke!

We just officially made SNL Weekend Update about the bag fee. At least they had the Airbus with the checked paint job instead of all the stock footage from the MD80's other media outlets were using!

Whats up with BB's latest letter? He stated he is waiting until we have completed negotiations to hold his town hall meetings that are about our future. Why the delay? He also stated he is encouraged by our progress in negotiations. What Progress?

Maybe someone clued him in that no one would be attending because he lost creditability amongst the working groups?????

High level meeting with Chuck Schumer; who knows????

Was anyone really going to attend... maybe the 2%er's???

Maybe the company expects a release???

I don't know...the prudent thing to do is to contact your union rep and ask them. Heaven forbid we all read or post on web boards and become labeled "half-wits, pariahs, and cowards!"


They union sent us an email last week telling us that "negotiations ended without agreement," but it's important to note that they were careful to avoid commentary in their email about how negotiations were going.

I know one thing for sure...nothing good has ever come from attending a Town Hall meeting while engaged in negotiations.

Not playing sides here, but isnt this the clown that call a UNITED or USAir FA a "B****" when she asked him to turn off his cell phone?

Maybe he's got a personal problem with airlines? who knows?
