Coto,

Did we ever get a final vol furlough number. Just curious. I think something like 150 or so seems to come to mind, but I'm not counting those beans right now.

Frats,
Lee

I'll respond when conditions allow. For me, calls mean nothing. When I get paper in the mail, I'll respond/decline this new hire offer.

Be careful out on that Wide Glide. Annual Sturgis trip awaits with Momma and the Road King!

Good luck to yunzes. I hope things work out, and after seeing CAL's work rules, i guarantee that we'll have 200 more NO votes.

Good luck to you all. The thing about GUM though is that there aren't many overnight trips in that base. Many out-and-backs so not sure the reserve rules that are causing domestic reserves to take a beating cause the same issues in GUM.

I'm envious. I live in the Bay area and have trouble finding people that ride consistently. Would like to cruise up the coastline to Oregon.

If you are a voluntary furlough from UAL, why would you agree to go to CAL on bottom than go back to UAL with a higher seniority number? I just don't understand why someone who could have a job at UAL would go to the bottom at CAL?
