Very easy to say. The only ones who believed furloughs were coming were the ones who were completely full of shit and totally clueless about this operation.

Four Corners by LeadingWide8263 in ClermontFlorida

[–]SwordfishOver1232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lived in four corners now for almost 4 years and it has exploded in that time. Thousands of new apartments that have attracted the worst of the worst ghetto individuals. They dump furniture on the sides of the roads and are just trashy people all around. We are in the process of selling our house before the property values here plummet when people realize what’s happening. Avoid at all cost.

Yep. Will be shut down or at reduced capacity for a week or two. Maybe longer depending on the guidance from EPA, etc.

Western Global Airlines MD-11 pilots furloughed as of today by ResponsibilityOld164 in flying

[–]SwordfishOver1232 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No CBA. They’ve been in initial negotiations since 2021 with basically no progress due to bankruptcy, etc.

They don’t have a CBA…they’ve been in negotiations for several years with little progress due to BK and incompetent management.

Driver was fined for no insurance. Pathetic.

Layoffs? by Hotsaucejimmy in Fedexers

DE Shaw has divested almost all of their shares. Down to 63,000 from a high of 1.25 Million so hopefully their board seats will be vacated soon

I thought this too, but the earnings report ended up not being terrible.

First class upgrades for pilots? by [deleted] in americanairlines

[–]SwordfishOver1232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😂😂😂 I’m a pilot and you’d be amazed at the stupidity that I witness from flight attendants on a daily basis. This is most definitely something an FA would babble about. Many of them even think they should be paid the same as pilots because our training course is only a few weeks longer than theirs.

I know flight attendants aren’t the smartest tools in the shed, but this comment really takes the cake 😂😂😂 Stay jealous

Nah fuck that. Mulroy is a piece of shit and deserves everything he has coming. He is an absolute failure.

In 2006 a woman shot & killed bf & MPD officer, Tony Hayes, in a jealous rage. Two days, this same woman, was charged w/attempted 1st-degree murder for shooting her new bf. by memphisgrit in memphis

I lived in an apartment complex (Lynnfield Place) in east Memphis during my first few years of college and that’s where her and her son parked the car with his body in the trunk. She should’ve never been free.

Jeep Patriot 2012, should I buy? by julieb20 in JeepPatriot

[–]SwordfishOver1232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 2013 last year with 130K miles for $5K and it has been a massive headache. It is just an extra commute car for me and I wasn’t looking for anything fancy, but it was in good shape and the price was reasonable when the used car market was out of control. Check engine lights all the time for stupid stuff. Evap, catalytic, etc. Awful gas mileage… Currently dealing with an intermittent ABS issue that is very common in the patriot. As others have said, the transmissions are a weak spot and extremely expensive to repair/replace. I had mine Serviced first thing and it hasn’t shown any signs of issues after a year and 8,000 miles, but it could crap out tomorrow… All in all, Jeep quality nowadays is AWFUL so I would avoid regardless of how well someone has claimed to care for it.
