it looks like I just earned two weeks of vacation last year instead of 4.

I know, boo-hoo, but I had plans for 22-23 vacation.

You actually don’t accrue vacation until you are OE complete. So if you go to a fleet with an OE backlog, it will hurt even more.

I think the logic is, we have been paying you full pay to sit at home, so why give you more laid time off…

Yes, God forbid we have an environment where employees and customers feel welcome to love who they love 🙄 oh the humanity!

I’m actually super proud of being recognized as an inclusive workplace.

and being the airline of choice for a well-traveled demographic with higher than average disposable income is a side benefit.

Proud to have the G trophy, the LBTQ+ awards won't be far behind. If we are as inclusive as we think, couldn't we serve another demographic with disposable income like hunters.

we still welcome and include hunters on flights and among our employee group.

we don’t give a discount to NRA members. That’s quite different.
