The CAL way continues. Let the snow blow off the wings instead of getting deiced, don't add fuel or else your retirement benefits could be affected, you accept some radiation exposure so that we can make a profit.
The things they put in print are unbelievably tone deaf and can't possibly be screened by their legal department.

Yeah, but since I am too junior to fly over there the only effect it will have on me is the senior guys flying over there getting "exposure" to increased radiation. Might as well call this "The Continental Airlines Pilot Reduction Program." Who says we will need to furlough??
J/K of course
