I'm sure your charming personality had nothing to do with it

no.... it didn't.... I got a phone call from them... they left a voicemail... I never so much as talked to them... so I have every right to be ****ed at them... It's all on them... I did absolutely nothing wrong...

ALPA News Release

REALLY?! I was under the impression that contract negotiations were happening and things were supposed to get BETTER, not WORSE! Anyone have any more internal legit info on what's likely to happen here?

Anyone at CommutAir commute? How difficult is it, and what do you do about parking where you commute from since they don't pay for parking if it's not your base? Hmm... thanks for any info.

I commute, a lot of people commute. I just pay for my parking out of base. My airport is reasonable ($30/mo, unlimited), others aren't so lucky. It just depends on where you live.

You just have to be responsible about commuting, we don't have a commuter protection policy yet... that's tied up in contract negotiations. Our only commuter protection right now is our sick time.

Alright, that sounds pretty reasonable, thanks for the reply!

Just got hired into the pool in late October. Said I should expect a possible Jan 2011 class date since they don't want to start new classes during the holidays. Anyone else hear about classes?

Word around here suggests the possibility of a Jan class. The sims are pretty backed up right now for new hires. I'm sure something will be scheduled soon, we could probably use another class soon.
