<_< ---- It's sad whenever anyone feels there is no other way out except taking ones own life, no matter who you work for, or what the circumstances!---- aa! You keep talking about EAL. I can understand that seeing you originally came from there, but I don't see the similarities! EAL went Chapt.7, and was liquidated! Good thing? No! EAL was a class act! And but for a few greedy people, might still be flying today! TWA was purposely taken into Chapt.11, not Chapt.7! Was bought up by aa and it's employees were promised "fair" treatment! That promise was never kept! I don't know how old you are aa, but a good portion of these Girls were in their early to mid fifties, and some even older, when this happened. And spent a good portion of their life's working only as F/A's for TWA!------ Reality check here! With few, if any other skills, at their age, just "getting on with your life, and getting another job", just isn't that easy!---Sad, but some, thought it imposable!---- Now, Hopeless!--- I've always said I felt "fair" was some where between "Staple", and "Dovetail"! But your Union didn't even conceder that! It was, and is, all one way!---- As for me trying to put a Guilt trip on you, and your fellow F/A's? I don't have to do that! It's not on me! You have to live with it! My conscience is clear!--- 😉 At least regarding these matters!
