Spirit of NKS, Part III
#592
I think hes like a 350lbs unemployed ex American Eagle guy or something. I actually feel kind of bad for him. One of the largest hiring cycles we've had in years and hes on the sidelines, lol.
What will really be funny is watching him leave the Spirit Threads when we get a contract (and we will) and watch him troll the Frontier Threads until they get theirs, lol.
Hopefully he sticks around, he at least brings some entertainment

Saying Spirit beats unemployment isn't bolstering anything.

yeah, you're right, better to be unemployed than make $120k and work 36 days. What was I thinking. Enjoy your merger and being an F/O for the next 20 years. Our contract is coming, the left seat for you is not
BTW, what happened on NYE in Istanbul?

Is that what you really comprehended from the sentence you quoted? Wow. Don't be so defensive on everything man. No one's denying a contract will come. It'll just be an ULC contract. You really think any organization, a ULCC at that, will pay you $250K+ to work 30 some days a year? If an ULCC doesn't pay UL wages then it's no longer an ULCC. Comprende?
You're taking internet posts way too hard.

Where do I start this...tell me what you think an ULCC business model is. The core of it.
I'll help you out by starting with
- a la carte pricing is not a business model exclusive to any business model, it's a marketing strategy.
- don't get me started on the non hub and spoke non-sense
So do tell

High aircraft utilization.
Single aircraft type which cuts on MX expenses.
Focus city's that allow less frequency with high returns.
More seats per a/c.
Im not sure what your deal is man. But it's getting tiring for someone who is so knowledgeable about spirit to not even be employed here, and seems at any 121 carrier? Checking that box asking if you have ever been terminated from a 121 carrier must be a tuff pill to swallow. Take a break find a hobby I don't know. I try to avoid the trolls...but you make it impossible.

Cujo is correct on this one. Operations at Spirit are a joke, and anyone who's worked here knows this. Labor costs are also clearly in the sights of management and our investors. There is always someone who asks the question about rising labor costs or contracts during quarterly shareholder calls. Many here are leaving or are trying to leave, but for many others, Spirit is a decent place to work. It's definitely worth fighting for a better CBA that recognizes our work.
