Okay, I give up. Now everybody knows who I am and they definitely don't care. Nice one 80kts.

If your arguments about your "losses" in this SLI are to be believed then some insight in where you "should have" fit in are necessary. Revealing (+/- 5%) were you are and why you lost so much (relative seniority, etc.) would go a long way for me and others to understand your position without IMO revealing your identity. Otherwise it is just talk and complaints with no basis.

Living with anger and fear are more than I would wish to endure. Everyone has there torch to bear and must live with there behavior in the past. I will treat every AT guy with respect and dignity. Unless of course their behavior on the job (not APC) are poor.

Also (with some evidence) please tell us of the incidents where someone has been fired from SWA for anything other than violations of the employee code of conduct requirements. Some imaginary terminations for not complying with the "cultural mold" are pure fabrications without evidence in fact.

YAWN........

You made it pretty easy with all of the personal info you put out there when you were trying to get hired by ANA. That info and the type ratings that you had listed made it easy. Plus, there are a lot of people on that side of the fence that you've made quite an impression on.

Simple questions, no specifics and yet you whine and squeal like a little girl. As I said, I don't know who you are but now others do apparently. From now on that is your problem and you must answer the question I asked on a thread related to our SLI. I will treat all fAT folks fairly. You are so bitter I don't even think you can great your own dog fairly.. if you only have kittens please treat them with the respect they deserve.

I am just saying!

First, why exactly were you or anyone else taking such great interest on the personal info I "supposedly" put out while "supposedly" trying to get hired by ANA? What's the motivation?

Second, what "side of the fence" are you referring to?

Oscar, I sense that you genuinely would like to makes amends, but I simply will not be discussing anything of the sort or putting out the information that you seek on a public forum. I lost greater than 30% (and obviously my seat), so I was in the group of FL pilots that lost the most in relative seniority. Enough said. Anyone on the outside looking in will probably agree that that's a ludicrous amount.

In 2001, I was flying with a CA at NWA who was complaining about losing his L seat and $35K, while I was getting ready to be furloughed for the next 6.5 years. He felt bad that he felt so sorry for himself.
I only lost 5% seniority = furloughed.

Hey, hey, hey..........don't go comparing NWA to SWA, okay? SWA has never furloughed and judging by the attitude and outlook of their pilots they never will either. They're immune to it and us FL pilots have supposedly hit the lottery.

Before anyone comments on me just being a smart-***, go talk to some of them. The superiority and invincibility mentality will blow you away. In this industry there's those that have and those that will and NO airline is immune to it.

I think you may have lost perspective on who he was making a comparison to.

That doesn't suprise me.
