I will call you out again on these BS statements! As for for sensitive feelings in the crew room, I see the majority of your pilots in the back of the crew room in your cubby hole. You are welcomed to hang out wherever you want in the crew room.
As for getting shot down from our pilots, we usually shake hands with strangers and get to know the individuals before we hug them. I would shoot you down every time if you tried to hug me on our first meeting.

Is this how you want to represent your pilot group with potential new hires? I also fully understand what is happening with your contract, so please spare me the "I want to inform the new hire BS! This is purely how you will act to these new hires.
You are truly an embarrassment to your pilot group and the industry.
Please do not try to turn the tables on F9 pilots. These were your words and nobody else. I am calling YOU out Mr. 2percenter!

Yes, I'm fine with representing my pilot group by politely greeting new hires. I reserve the right to form whatever opinion of them I want to. You should look in the mirror before criticizing the way we represent ourselves. For a pilot group that claims to be so experienced & mature, a select few really seem to shine above the rest.
It's a nice Sunday afternoon & I have better things to do with my time. I won't fight you for the last word Mr. Bolo. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

I was MKE based for 2+ years, so I've had plenty of long sits spent eating in the DEN crew room. Normally there are(were) so many RW crews in that cramped little corner that I wouldn't even bother going back there. I normally ate my lunch on the couch by your computers or at the tables in front of the tv. I have fairly thick skin, so i ignored the stares, the raised noses, the under the breath comments, the occasional verbal assault by your pilots. I was joking about the hugs, I guess it wasn't that funny of a joke.
Thanks for deeming me an embarrassment to the industry. I didn't realize you were elected Supreme Overlord of the Airline industry.

I also remember what FAPA did last Thanksgiving. FAPA learned on Tuesday evening that the Company was not going to provide meals for any employees on Thanksgiving. FAPA searched for a caterer on Wednesday in both Denver and Milwaukee and a handful of volunteer Frontier pilots spend their Thanksgiving day (a day off for these guys) delivering food. Some folks volunteered in the morning to set the food up and some folks volunteered in the evening to clean up the crew rooms.
The food was intended to be for everyone, and it was enjoyed by everyone. I honestly thought that the effort made was going to go along way towards building some positive energy but apparently that was not the case. Oh well.
Getting back on track to the OP, I would be surprised if the bonus program at RAH remained in effect considering the PCL BK filing. There will be no shortage of qualified applicants now that some folks are staring down the barrel of a furlough. Best of luck to everyone involved.

I'm waiting for everyone else who can to offer bonuses now too. That will suck this place down again. Our beat leverage is growing attrition and empty classrooms. We need to do what we can within the constraints of the RLA to keep it that way.
