Default The "Magic Bullet" from the Grassy Knoll....

ALPA email today:

"...The System Schedule Committee discovered an IT issue in the display of bids in the CCS Vacancy Bidding system. The system erroneously displayed bids leftover from the last Vacancy Bid even though those bids had not been saved for this Vacancy Bid. Due to the error, the SSC had the company pull down the system and implement a fix to ensure accurate bidding. "

(Discovered during a layover at Roswell, NM).

Thank you captain 756, for looking up the "big" words for me.
Now lookup "disingenuous"..... since your posts seem to be "vapid"

Jesus dude get a grip when you get awarded a vacancy your standing bids are supposed to get deleted. That didn't happen when 16-04V opened. No other vacancies are wrong......take a chill brother.

That's better

Don't remember any issues with CCS bidding before the post-merger deconning.
Better point the finger elsewhere B52.

You're right. I read way too much into your "incompetent continental" comment.
No hurt feelings here. No need to be politically correct but you would go a long way by not being belligerent.

Per Bo Ellis the entire IT department has been replaced and a ton of money was allocated to fix the IT issues, there obviously are still deficiencies but it has gotten better since Smisek was sh** canned,

George,



Can you shed some light on your statement?? Was this recently? If so, great news and many thanks for the sliver of optimism.
