Is it like a grab & go lunch?

Nope, you get to sit down next to him and be buddies with the Vage! If it were grab and go you'd hurt his feelings.

H46Bubba

Sure! Uncle Rico will be there to snap glamour shots for all that want one with the Vage! I'm getting mine at the Team Summit Meeting!

I like how the FO lunch will be in November, I guess thats so us furloughed guys cant bring the heat.

I think guys that have been holding a line for a LONG time and are back on JR reserve will be happy to bring some warmth into the convo.

Hell, If it's in the airport, i'll fly up on my benefits. and bust in there, and start some fires.

It'll probably be in a SIDA area

So my impression after the conf call is that mgt and the pilot union are even not talking about anything right now, esp. regarding mitigating furloughs.

The question I had submitted online to the call was:

"What about voluntary pilot furloughs? Or is a part-time pilot program even being considered? Seems like a win-win, less furloughs and an immediately available, still current work force should any flying be suddenly handed to us. Perhaps I am naive, but why are the discussions between mgt and the union so secretive? I think the drop in morale and fear amongst the pilot group is due to lack of information from both sides. How about minutes from the meetings so that the pilot group has an idea of how their fate is being handled?"

They paraphrased my question, I guess, to a comment about "some of you feel like mushrooms and that is what these conference calls are for, to keep you informed"...ugh! Frustrating!
