Let it go become one group and work on a great contract and don't become a SCAB like the LAX based Captains (I know not all of them are ) and I will call a SCAB A SCAB to his or her face that is my right.

All I am saying ewrbased pilot is its time to fight not hang on to the past who bought who its over we are all UNITED now so lets fix this place or burn it down.
Stupid rants, eh? All we hear on these forums is about how you bought us, you're bringing all the heavy metal to the table, your careers are so much better than ours, your planes are better than ours (not hardly), your bases are better than ours (maybe DEN but that's way too cold for my blood), and how you're getting all our crappy flying (have you seen what WE'RE getting?) I was pretty satisfied with our airline before this merger, and now like many, I can't wait to retire and ENJOY life. As far as becoming a scab, you're talking to the wrong person. But you are right about one thing, it's time to work together and get this place going the right direction as we certainly aren't getting ANY leadership from the top.

I thought YOU bought us, right? So how is it that UAL was "unloaded" on CAL? And what's even worse is how the BOD bestowed $600,000 a year to Tilton to not even work here any more. THAT is PATHETIC.

When I "unload" something on someone, it's usually because I don't want what I have and the other person is getting screwed. So in essence, you're saying the CAL group got screwed. Okay, I get you now................ But at least we got some dinosaur FA's and planes in the deal................

I can see why you are so bitter. I hope you are young enough and have many years left on the property. I would love to see how long you will carry all that bitterness around. I am just glad that I will never have to be pulling your gear Best of luck.

You'll never be lucky enough to fly with me as I only have a few years left...... As far as being bitter, that only happened once this merger was announced as we were doing fine before this mess occurred. But, if it makes you feel any better, I've flown with two L-UAL furloughed guys that told me I was one of the best they'd flown with and couldn't wait to fly with me again. Must be something I did.............like treat them with respect and dignity. Hmmmmmmmmmm, where have I heard that before?

For me it has been 23 years on the property with 18 years to go. Let me ask you though, those two L-UAL pilots you personally flew with, wil they not be more indicative of the types of pilots that we all bring versus the few chest beaters that you will find here on these forums hiding behind fake identities? So instead of continuing to paint all with the same wide brush, why not step back and stop the insults...Enjoy your retirement when it comes!
