I hate to break it to you, but you are not immune to the woes of the industry because JA loves you so much.
That was not what I said. But now that you mention it, XJT/ASA will feel the squeeze of the industry long before SKW will. Its not that SKW is immune to it, but they will avoid it longer than anyone else can.

I don't think using John Galt to promote a union stance is exactly what Rand had in mind...

True. My point was that I can find other jobs. I'm not taking a concession just to keep this job. I'm not worth less today than I was yesterday. either way. Darn good book.

XJT "Management", right your ship before you ask to climb aboard ours!!! When I see one of the duplicate sets of management eliminated (ATL, or SGU) and serious improvements in scheduling efficiency, THEN we'll talk!
Thank you!!!

It just doesn't add up.
This went to arbitration. And that's what the arbitrator decided.

ASIG seems to always have new people maybe we should go there.

Great book I'm in the middle of my second time through.

Serious question: Do the movies do the book justice?

Maybe so but we still have what? Seven years left on the current CPA for 50 seat flying. I'll ride this contract out for seven years. Oh, and if they take the planes guess what! We go with them. I can live on SKY pay. They would be forced to welcome allot of big northeast union guys.

What is this guy smoking? The only place the planes are going is to Kingman, Arizona. The CPA was with Continental. No more Continental, no more CPA. Vapor!

That is not how contracts work when one entity is acquired/merged. 10 year cpa with skywest.
