Us Airways Seeking Relief From Union Contracts

[High Iron]

They're still flying

Meaning?

What's that saying from Monty Python - "I'm not dead yet."

Of course if they're dead, why are you sitting around on your tail typing on an internet message board when you could be 30 days ahead of your coworkers in getting a new job. Hello. McFly.

5 years after this carrier does fold, folks like you, [edited by mod] will still be arguing.

I don't know...maybe because my situation enables me the flexibility to wait until that day comes...whenever it is? No competitive worries from other shipwreck victims either.

Why are you sitting around on your tail responding? If in your unflappable smugness you will not be affected one way or the other, why such rhetoric?

BTW, I don't have a tail...though I'm not too sure about the well-heeled kibbitzers.

"Why are you sitting around on your tail responding? If in your unflappable smugness you will be affected one way or the other, why such rhetoric?"

So a difference of opinion is rhetoric? That's very interesting.

 

[High Iron]

Alright, fair enough. A difference of opinion is not rhetoric. ( though it cuts both ways )

Since when is posting an opinion indicative of feckless sloth? "Sitting on your tail....." Seems 2K plus posts versus 220-something would place the honor of sitting on the former rather than the latter.

We aren't worried about being 30 days ahead of our coworkers, oh wise one. This is not a competion amongst coworkers. Most will ride this dead horse into the ground, and then we will step off, brush ourselves off, and move on. I paid into unemployment for over 20 years and I think I'm ready to take 6 months of withdrawals. Is that clear the real MCFLY!!

No, you didn't. Unemployment Insurance is funded by a payroll tax on employers, not a payroll deduction on workers.

Slacker, they are all slackers, that's the problem....

Note: From "Back to the Future" and not meant to offend the sensitive U employees who all feel picked on for some reason....

Note: Note; Last comment was sarcastic, so we are clear and I don't receive life threatening PM's.

Note..note and yet another note…maybe I should just disappear since U not longer makes a difference in my life…hmmm good idea, bye bye-----

Whatever!! Without employees their wouldn't be employers, so whats the point. I haven't collected a day of unemployment benefits my entire life( 41 years) so what I'm saying when my number expires at Usairways my next check for 6 months is just a computer click away, although it will be much smaller.
