Hate the last-minute aircraft changes. Goodbye power outlets and video screens, hello pre-1970 decor and non-existent amenities... so much for Comfort Plus

Try flying on a CRJ both ways every week.

And the 200 to boot. No first class, no outlets, no comfort plus. Sigh 😔

Pre 1970 decor on airplanes was quite plush compared to today.

For anyone who receives a quarterly bonus or raise in some form, does your employer start to schedule you for less hours when your raise kicks in, or pull you from a future schedule entirely once you receive a bonus; only to put you back on once the hours you would have worked and earned the amount given are passed? Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?
