I'm guessing the the company you fly for never closed a domicile shortly after they opened it and you moved there, bought a house, found wifey a job and junior some new friends at a new school? Or they never parked a fleet and displaced a few thousand guys to other domiciles a thousand miles away?

Airlines close bases, furlough pilots, park cool airplanes, and go out of business almost every year. Welcome to the industry sir. |
I'm pretty sure it was a UA guy here who threatened JS denials. Also I'd bet the guy with his kid was a management type. They will trump you at mainline.
I had to DH to an outstation from ORD a few weeks ago, I never had the time to check in because of it being a last minute schedule reassignment. When I went to the gate podium to get my seat a Mainline pilot came over in a huff as I was getting my boarding pass and said something to me and the gate agent about UAX pilots shouldnt be bumping him and calling the chief blablabla. I just looked at him, stunned. The gate agent seemed happy to tell him I was deadheading. I just added that a airplane full of UA pax was waiting for me in XXX .. Maybe getting the facts before you go off the handle is a good idea, because it sure made that dude look like a jackhole to whomever witnessed it. |
I never imagined that I would keep working until I am 65, but now that my pass travel benefits will be best from when I planned to retire (55 or so) to 65, I now plan to keep working until 65.
