Whackmaster,
Once you transition over to SWA I highly recommend you take advantage of their Clear Skies program that offers free professional counseling for all sorts of issues. In the benefits brochure it mentions "emotional distress" as one of the covered ailments. You could use it!

For the love of God man, must you turn every thread into a personal sob story about how you got screwed? Get the F%#^! Over it and move on. Whaaaa your company got acquired -- deal with it like a grown up and move on and when you do cross over try and make your new company successful and also a fun place to work at.

I got news for you pal, the resentment and animosity will be around for a LONG time. You can't phuck people over the way SW and SWAPA did then say "get over it" and expect the ill feelings to just go away. I don't owe your company a god damn thing.

Frank, do us and yourself a favor and be sure to bring all that bravado with you to the Training Center. Be sure to let them know how "SW has the most F'ed up way of doing things" Tell the check airman on your IOE how much better the ATN way of doing things was.

If someone brings it up, and wants my opinion, I will absolutely tell them what I think.

I assume Smokey is one of those pilots that bought the 737 type then got rejected by SW. You sound a lot like it to me. Congrats, now you get to sneak into an airline that didn't want you in the first place.

Add Frank to my list (which only has the WM on it) of those who has lost any sympathy on my part for their plight. Make yourself ill for all I care. Better yet please apply somewhere else and don't bother coming over. Just saying!

The last guy fAT guy I flew with was awesome! I doubt I will feel the same if I fly with Frank or the WM. It is very difficult to hide such animosity. They hide within an anonymous forum...........crying and complaining like little girls. Classless.

Classless?! Oh the hypocrisy! If you want to throw that word around please direct it at your union and management A.K.A co-conspirators.

What the hell makes you think I give a flying phuck about your sympathy? That's the last thing I need. Enjoy my seniority and my captain seat, you stole it fair and square, douchbag.

You wanna talk about class? Let talk about how SWAPA and SWA management conspired to screw the AT pilots over. Lets talk about how SWAPA agreed to NOTHING extra to operate the -800's. Lets talk about how SWAPA agreed to NOTHING to fly international, no Int'l override, no crew meals, NOTHING...and what about red eyes, NOTHING. SWAPA gave Gary those things in exchange for all of the AT captain seats and and a bulk of their seniority. To deny that is to deny reality. Real classy SWAPA.

You can take your sympathy and stick it up your ass..
