I worked for that place for 12 years, as a pilot and at corporate. It was shocking to me how dumb the ceo, executives and sub executives were. Congratulations, you arrogant idiot's, you managed to take a perfectly good company and run it into the ground. You retards belong nowhere near another busines. 

with it so maturely 

Get off your high horse. This is what happens to a guy who puts in the equivalent of THREE enlistment terms into a company that doesn't end up valuing their employees. 

Just putting my experience out there hoss. I haven't worked there in a while but have a lot of friends that do. 

Agreed! What happened with their bankruptcy filings? Haven't heard a word about it after the union contract was signed. Usually when a company is going into bankruptcy, especially from a private equity firm like American Securities, a major reshuffling of senior leadership follows i.e. CEO is gone, CFO is gone, etc. That hasn't happened. Makes you wonder if it was all a rouge to bring pressure for the contract's acceptance. Enquiring minds want to know...

I think the reshuffle will happen post ch.11. But, AmSec is the big thief, IMO, in this story. They got their cash and ran in the form of loans forced upon AMC; left AMC with the debt. The real question is how will next owners get their money back/out...?

Problem is, when Skippy and Buffy get their MBAs, they believe they know the best for everything! Aviation is only a trade to them, no special skills or knowledge needed! In school they learned how to  downsize the operations and squeeze the profits from the whole enterprise. When they get the job at an already stressed company, they do what they know, work it into bankruptcy and take the cash on the way to their next gig! They consider this a success! Worst managers I have witnessed were MBAs!

.......MBAs and lawyers go to school for a year or two beyond basket weaving, get the blueprints for schrew win' up and then go to Congress or corporate mgmt or board room.     Now, what does that tell ya!?

Right, a lot of them are nothing short of a complete hoax, dangerous ones.

2003 it was downhill with all the churning the sheets to prop up the stock for options exercise.  Ripped its value to shreds, and they all know it.
