Bendo needs to find a new job.
It costs us about 50k of our own pocket per cancelled flight to book hotels and flights on other airlines. So we just lost about 2.6M$ yesterday alone.

I won't rehash it again, but it was complete lies on a DUI I had in 1999, that was fully disclosed. The funny part was they supported the guys that ousted them anyway, oh the humanity. I don't even know why any of you, including me, even still encourage or give these guys any credibility, the group has spoken. I can prove who they are due to my attorney gaining IP addresses and MAC addresses from "Spiritman" and his buddies, I also have evidence to prove that I was never on these boards before this incident, I dare them to push this further. I have two sworn depositions from FO's that have flown with a certain union member in ACY that also used this same piece of garbage to slander me, like I said a while back, I dropped it for now believing that this issue was over. If they want to go the legal route with me, then I say lets do it! By the way, why can't we have a credible discussion with dissenting views without the personal attacks from these guys?

It's a bigger issue than one person on management. This is an issue with a growing company not spending enough to support that growth. You can't expect to run 144 airplanes at a cost and infrastructure built for 45. It's the same issue with the "budget" the company is willing to spend on our contract. It is a fixed dollar and doesn't account for our growth. Last year our pilot cost was X. This year with 300 more pilots the cost cannot still = X.

Not saying we don't have problems because we surely do but if you were in ORD yesterday you know that every airline was having a meltdown. Our issue is that it's hard to recover because we just don't offer the frequency the other airlines do.

Yes, I agree, but how many times does this have to happen before Bendo finally gets it? They have acknowledge before that they need to hire more dispatchers and schedulers. Yesterday there was 3 on during most of the meltdown.
What I see on a daily basis is flt attendants that don't care, contracted gate agents that don't care and are telling customers anything they like and now an upper management (Bendo)that is breeding a not caring attitude that is now being reflected by all the employees he has gone cheap on.
Question is, how many times can we do this to customers? This place is an embarrassment.
