I think that they said they were foregoing bonuses also.
It does say alot about them though.

HA! That's what they want you to believe. They have millions of dollars of stock options! They certainly aren't poor!

That is great Nick is going again. Mike was down there early this morning, he is helping to organize it again. I will let Mike know to look out for him.

Cool!
Nick is a pilot-to-pilot rep (or something like that). He gets into stuff like this so he can fight for the pilots!

DH didn't fly to IAH, but I guess something like 500 pilots turned out, which is fabulous!!! CAL was having a share holders meeting, right? And they were picketing, right?

DH doesn't think that he will get furloughed, but I fear that he gets based back in EWR. I swear (vent ahead), it is always something with these guys. If it isn't contract talk, it is merger talk, or furlough talk, or this or that.

These guys must really love what they do in order to put up with all this stuff

You're right Joanna- they have to have something going on!

By the way, I just started a CAL wives "social group". Use the tool bar at the top of the page and select Social Groups, and the CAL Gals and add a bio about yourself!
