00:00 - 00:05 | So I said on the call |
00:05 - 00:07 | "We're going to give the 170's to Republic." |
00:07 - 00:10 | "It'll streamline our operation." |
00:11 - 00:16 | Then we closed the Minneapolis base. |
00:17 - 00:21 | Hope you like getting displaced. |
00:21 - 00:24 | Is that streamlined enough for you? |
00:29 - 00:31 | So then |
00:31 - 00:34 | We stop hiring for 6 months |
00:38 - 00:40 | We saved a fortune |
00:41 - 00:47 | We shut down training entirely, sent the planes away |
00:47 - 00:50 | On the call they asked "When are you gonna hire again" |
00:50 - 00:56 | We said "We'll look into it. We think we're staffed" |
00:58 - 00:59 | And then |
00:59 - 01:01 | We took their vacations |
01:04 - 01:06 | We raised the floor to 85 |
01:06 - 01:08 | MONTH AFTER MONTH |
01:13 - 01:14 | Then they asked |
01:14 - 01:16 | How do I print my pairing |
01:16 - 01:20 | Let's open SNA base |
01:21 - 01:27 | We have 2 flights a day there |
01:35 - 01:36 | Why the fuck would ... |
01:36 - 01:39 | We open a base for 2 flights |
01:41 - 01:44 | LAX is 35 minutes away |
01:44 - 01:47 | It's stupid as hell |
01:47 - 01:49 | Although.. |
01:50 - 01:53 | That didn't stop us in Phoenix |
01:54 - 01:56 | We have like |
01:56 - 01:58 | 3 flights there |
01:58 - 02:02 | And 22 in SLC |
02:05 - 02:07 | But the... |
02:10 - 02:11 | But the flight instructors |
02:11 - 02:13 | They live in Phoenix |
02:15 - 02:17 | And it's a "recruiting tool" |
02:17 - 02:20 | Come fly our shiny jet |
02:21 - 02:28 | Hope you like 85 hour floor |
02:29 - 02:30 | Unstaffed |
02:30 - 02:32 | for over a year we raised the floor. |
02:36 - 02:39 | Right seat qual captains and stopped upgrade. |
02:40 - 02:42 | Now we're short captains |
02:50 - 02:55 | But don't worry they have a guaranteed interview |
02:56 - 02:58 | with Delta |
02:58 - 03:04 | "We can't provide any details" |
03:04 - 03:09 | "don't worry they have all your names" |
03:09 - 03:11 | They'll call |
03:16 - 03:20 | any minute now. Don't worry about that Delta job |
03:23 - 03:26 | We're not getting 787s. The rumors are false |
03:31 - 03:36 | But Endeavor is probably taking our 175's |
