The only thing I would be truly sad about in a furlough is losing my identity and my real fAAmily.
I voted NO for a reason the 1st time...it was not based on furlough, it was based on a contract I simply couldn''t work under.
We''ve been bashed to death on this BB, but no matter what is said, we are the ones that held on to the bitter end. Underfly certainly pushed me to the edge. I could''ve lived with almost everything else (excluding per diem) but that was the nail in the coffin.
It''s so silly that AA would''ve pushed BK regarding underfly. All they had to do from the beginning was listen to us and be willing to negotiate. DC might still have a job if they weren''t so obstinate.
I''m not sad about a 2nd job. I''ve been wanting to get one but 1/1 reserve made it impossible.
I am so tired of posts that tell me to "roll over and take it". If I did that, we would have been stuck with true crap.
Guess what my first choice of a 2nd job is....waitressing ...more $$$.
I find it incredibly funny that so many look down on those who serve you food.
Even Saddam is smarter than that.
Think about it,

Coop,
It''s Junior F/A''s, LIKE YOURSELF ,who refuse to compromise your PRINCIPLE, who refuse to be brainwashed by "lap dog" union leadership, that help make up the "BACKBONE" of your strong, and powerful union.
After some "house cleaning", at your union headquarters, you gals/guys, will again be "At the top of your game" !!
IMHO, you''ll do very well, at what ever you do.
Proud to call you co-worker.
