As for those who relied on "perks" to get to and from work the foolishness of this strategy is now apparent. Find another job where you live or move back to nearer your base. You made your bed, now lie on it.
Unless of course you are senior management or a director!

What has amazed me about this thread is that it's OK for posters to do what they abhor in the CC...Name call....I can see the frustration of many posters coming out in the playground atmosphere of trying to find some expletive that will not be censored.
One thing is certain....None of it made a jot of difference either way to the dispute...
If it had been any other airline, would the vitriolic comments still filled 89 pages?
