I've taken a look at this site off and on and I often try to shed good light on things I see going wrong.

The past couple of months have had a few very significant problems that are much bigger than most of can handle or be happy about. However, we have to get through this and move forward and not let the huge events break us down. I'm disappointed as well at what I've seen recently, but there have been some up sides to things as well, but those have been overshadowed by the recent bad and that is human nature. We love to complain and spread bad news, but don't often talk about good news.

This isn't the first round of frustrating times US Airways has see and it's not the first round of bad for America West as well. Both airlines have had their share of bad press...but which airline hasn't been bashed at one time or another.
 
Shed good light? Wait until the "West" starts getting furloughed ! It is only a matter of time. Apologize if this upset you Cactus, we have to shed some good light, right ?
 
No one will pull together when management won't settle the CBAs and makes stupid decisions that screw the employees and the passengers.

I totally agree, but then again, they are gonna make meaningless insults at me like saying words like "koolaid" and "treehugger" and playing at the "sandcastle" etc. Hell yeah, I value any job I have, which is obviously taken for granted by the people out there. I would rather make a living at a company where I am valued than continue making big money as a contracter being shuffled around every 2 months. MY PROBLEM, not yours.

Treehugger? A company where you are valued?

And no you are not playing in the sandcastle, it is the sandbox you are playing in.

Why is it up to the employees? They don't do staffing,merge computer systems, advertising, scheduling. The managers better get cracking or there won't be company to manage. Last time I looked there was not a big demand for managers from bankrupt airlines.

by the time there are furloughs, it will be combined and there will be no east and west. West is hiring FA's and CSA's right now and will probably push through over 150 FA's by years end.

Doesnt mean a thing,Hireing doesnt mean they will be there in a year with this company,seen it,done it.They hired hundreds of mechs to fix parked out of time A/C then see ya.

If your numb swith hasnt broken by now it should at least be safety wired to the full numb position.Priority 1 safety after that pax comfort,then everything else is let your conciuos be your guide.. :up: :up: :up:

Seatacus,

Exactly!

Why do employees always have to bear any burden, right every wrong, go the extra distance?

Why can't management just do their basic job (nothing extra), and put adequate resources in place for employees to do the job?

If employees just had the basic stuff (including a decent IT lash-up), they'd think they'd died and gone to heaven.

Now let's play double Jeopardy, where the score can really change.

Why can't management treat employees half as well as WN management treats their troops, and why can't US pay their employees 90% of what WN employees make?

Isn't a 10% advantage enough for the geniuses that manage US? If not, who's the real problem?
