Because people make life's watershed decisions for a myriad of reasons; little of which hinge on message board banter.

This might actually be a reminder to management that labor is an important part of running a business. It's hard to run an airline without any employees
I get the Denver issues. To a point anyways. But there were flights cancelled at out stations that weren't going to Denver. Turns out of PHL for example. With planes and crews ready to go.

They're harshing economic conditions so they can show the mediator they're losing money and can't afford to pay us... they'd rather set money on ablaze in this dumpster fire than give it to us

I've thought that very thing.

i don't get your point, i am sure they still made money. Weather is not an economic condition. One bad weekend out of the year is not enough evidence for the mediator, especially considering latest Q3 report. The union and the mediator are smart enough to realize that.

But you are correct management has 0 desire to spread the wealth.

It was an attempt at humor in this most embarrassing and humiliating time... don't get me wrong, I don't take this debacle personally but trying to catch a ride to work and saying you work for frontier isn't exactly a badge of honor these days

Because they can't go anywhere else. We have the same thing at Spirit. Those with questionable backgrounds, ineptitude, or don't meet the requirements justify staying while the rest of us are trying like hell to get a real job.

Last time I checked this was the big leagues. Or at least that's what my ground instructor told us before taking his recall.
