Big difference fatso, 9E sold everyone under the bridge with their cowardly yes vote to massive concessions. Tony, just wishes he has "OO" wings, while 9E guys are wondering if they'll truly be the next Comair after Delta is done playing their dirty game...

Sounds good to me. I'm really growing tired of the XJET attitude here and in person, and after seeing their recent "crackpipe" thread on Skywest I was just disgusted by the overall immaturity and vile attitudes. Between that, the rudeness I've experienced going through IAH, and that whole YT video debacle I have ZERO desire to include those people amongst my peers. I know most of them are good folks, but man there sure seem to be some problem children over there.

We have a lot of former ASA folks at OO, and I myself was hired at ASA in '08 right before everything shutdown and people were furloughed. I was fortunate to have just been in the pool at that point, but I was impressed with everyone I came across and continue to be impressed with the professionalism of ASA folks. I would enjoy working side by side with them anytime.

I think this should be the new push.....ASA/SkyWest unite and let the miserable XJT folks fend for themselves...Their toxic attitude isn't welcome here anymore....I know most ASA folks are happy that SkyWest bought us.

Remember Captain Tony is still sour grapes after getting himself fired from Skywest.

I'm sorry, this is all I could think of after reading your post...

I feel like the ExpressJet beef is a one way street, I can't think of one conversation I've had/heard while working that included ExpressJet, so what's all this hatred towards SkyWest?
