Alaska Airlines is full of hillbillies and I am never flying on an airline without status again.

And yes I'm a snob.

Clearly you’ve never flown Spirit…

likefunny

I did once. Never again. I wrote them to complain and I got a response telling me I am no longer welcome to fly with them. No worries, I won’t.

You ever fly SWA ?

Oh no, they charged you according to the clearly laid out standards because you didn’t follow the clearly laid out standards, what a terrible airline

Can you upgrade me next time? I learned spirit named their flight after the souls that leave the passenger’s body during takeoff and landing

I really miss Virgin Airlines. I wish Alaska never acquired them. 😞

like

Yeah, there's still Virgin Atlantic for the trans-Atlantic flights to the UK. Virgin serviced the West Coast and Alaska bought them to increase their routes/service areas.

It's a bummer because Virgin was such a fun airline to ride. Their safety videos had catchy songs and the planes were new with cool interior lighting. Staff were super friendly and engaged. It was awesome!

I’m flying Alaska in a couple weeks. I chose the MSP layover on the outbound flight because I want the Delta miles, but coming back I chose the direct flight on Alaska. I’m sure I will come to regret this decision.

I was a Delta loyalist til I moved to the Pacific Northwest and switched to Alaska. Both have been great, but I suppose it depends on where your primary routes are.

I always loved flying Alaska 🤷🏾‍♀️

I like them and Southwest, but I miss Virgin.

When talking about salary, do you usually say your base or TC?

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?

I feel like a failure as a parent at times - my youngest daughter is extremely anxious about middle school and in the first week has already had two emotional breakdowns. She is so worried about people picking on her and not having friends. I have reached out to the counselor and principal with hopes to get her some support in school, but I can’t do anything to make it better. I feel like I should be able to do more than encourage her but I know some battles she had to fight on her own.

Growing up was rough. On my 8th birthday my dad had an accident that led to this death a few days later. He was a good man who took care of us all (I had 3 siblings now 2; lost 1 few years ago). I'm in a good place in life right now I only find myself in the last 5years shedding a tear once a while when I'm alone. It startles me because I was a tough kid who didn't cry and just soaked it all in and rolled with it. I'm almost 40 and can't explain what's happening with these tears.
