What crews mean to management


So, turns out, the actual employees that work at Mesaba and Compass had no idea they were being sold. No clue. The upper management likely new about it, but the employees that do the actual work aren't viewed as actual human beings in the regional airline business.

Think about it. You're a regional airline pilot. People's lives are in your hands day in and day out. You represent your company and your industry to the public with just about everything you do. The FAA is breathing down your neck any chance they get, and the company thinks highly of you. So highly, in fact, that in order to rapidly disseminate critical company news that could very affect the careers of their employees, the company chooses a highly official system. Yup, keep your employees completely in the dark and then let them read about it in the newspaper.

Are you f*cking kidding me? These big salary captains of industry don't even have the balls to tell their employees news like that themselves? What a bunch of clowns. That, ladies and gentleman, is a perfect example of how upper management views it's employees at a regional airline. They don't give a flying crap. Plain and simple. They might talk about how they care, but they sure lack actually showing it.

Will AMR Sell American Eagle?

I guess we'll see if the Eagle pilots will be treated any better if they get sold. At least the newspaper articles seem to be ahead of the game on things for them.
