Pretty sure Encore is the only one keeping the lights on right now... it certainly isn't a -800 with <20 people on it.

I almost do nothing but lurk on here these days...

I still don’t understand why the company desired to monetize the sick time. I had no incentive to use it up before, but now...

The least they could do is pay out half of the vanishing sick time. Split it with us...

Probably jumping the gun here. They are just saying ‘don’t participate in trials’. IE don’t take until fully FDA approved. Whether the ‘emergency authorization’ period is disqualifying is unknown still, may have to wait for that to end. I would imagine it would be a losing battle to ultimately tell ...

It’s not just this forum. The internet as a whole is degenerating into a polarized, angry cesspool of people arguing in their own echo chambers. Social media caters to people’s baser instincts and rational, critical thinking abilities are disappearing... It also doesn’t help that this forum has beco...

I got a response after 3 months.. you’ll probably get one eventually.

Not that they didn’t have the seniority, but they took a voluntary lay off, and now facing a reality-check after their summer off, decide they want to now work for encore. IMO they had their chance.

Yes, we live in a society. Great observations.

And the fungus continues to spread..

With WJ being private now, there aren't even any numbers to discuss. Only what the talking heads in management choose to relay...

Really? I’m still surprised Circa $1500 after tax is enough to do anything with...

I get the frustration, at our house we have been affected by job loss as well. But once you say the word ‘snowflake’ I stop listening. There may be job loss now, but you would also have no job down the road if the virus had been allowed to just run rampant, hoping for it to just ‘disappear’. Equatin...

But..But... Ed said that this was not planned before the pandemic! He said it several times so it must be true.

Management did their best to paint the pilots as the devil during negotiations and pit the rest of the employees against them. I think what we have here is an example of the brainwashing having its intended effect.

It's a shame, I feel that there was a competitive advantage in having the customer 'touch points' IE the CSAs, in-house. Now you will have people who only give a damn just enough to not get fired, wearing WJ uniforms. Obviously WJ figures the lack of service for 50c on the dollar (or whatever) is wo...

If/when WJ comes out the other side of this, it will be a sad shell of it’s former self

I find it interesting that there is no "Will Air Canada Survive" thread or it's equivalent on the Air Canada Forum. It seems that they are in the same industry and face the same issues and challenges. Is it that all Canadians just expect and know that the government will bail out AC no ma...

They’ve also managed to reduce costs by at least 60% so far. They’re not just sitting around waiting for the cash to run out.

How did this get associated with a Navajo? You have to take into account the pyramid of "AvCanada bitchiness". There was no option to complain about instructing, so the poster reverted to the second level of the pyramid. Some good old 703 bashing! -------- At the top, you have FTUs and fl...
