Cue the "Price is Right" FailTuba.

But nice payout for a man who might be going to the pokey.

I hope he can spend it in jail. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...roposal-that-led-united-into-corruption-probe

Couldn't of happened to a finer band of D-Bag's. The merger was bungled from the start because of these tools. As a former 15 year employee of L-UAL I bid them good riddance!

So they're bringing in a bunch of.....CSX guys?

Oh boy....

One of the only good things said abut Benito Mussolini in 1940s Italy was that he made the railroads run on time.

Good luck to Oscar Munoz!

"Smisek, who was chairman, president and chief executive, will receive about $4.9 million as a separation payment."

Oh, I weep for him.

Yeah, Chritie was done anyone, I don't even know why he thought he had a bid on the Presidential seat. I hope he ends up in jail because everyone around him is biting the bullet.

Has any employee ever been unhappy to see any of them go?

 

[ChasenSFO]

I'll miss the long awkward gazes into his eyes on the safety videos and in the magazines.

Oh boy....

herding people on to planes is similar to herding cattle into rail cars? (anyone compare business class on UA to almost any other airline with business class - except for inter european business class?!)

At least over the past few years service and amenities seem to have greatly improved on UA. I hope the new CEO will continue this trend.

Company just wanted to make sure that the new management is familiar with the Railway Labor Act

Hmmm... I wonder what Smisek got in return for those special flights to Profit-town, SC? More slots at EWR?

This is probably the only thing that could get him back into New Jersey these days.
