What do you guys think, should the government bail out Spirit (and the other airlines that will be in trouble soon)?

No. But Biden should have approved the merger between Jet Blue and Spirit

Wouldn't that have led to JetBlue closing down this weekend as well?

You mean socialize the losses and privatize the gains? lol no, we need to stop putting everything on taxpayers. If a business needs cash they can borrow or sell shares or sell the business or assets. If that doesn’t work, other businesses that are managed better can pick up the customers.

Government bail outs have always been short sighted and terrible policy. Let the free market work. Also applies to the blocking of the merger

No, because Jet Blue wasnt in bankruptcy for the second time in a year. That merger would have more likely made a stronger airline

Sorry - typed Jet Blue but should have said Spirit

Why would they? Trump only help those that gave him or his family money. Most rich people fly private they don’t really care if budget airline shuts down

haven’t seen the website? retail wants to bail them out

Well one of the main politicians (Warren) that fought against the merger and other options also made fat money selling Spirit stock according to reports this week so the insider trading game was more important to them.

Nope. The Government shouldn't have to bail out private companies.

I am looking for a new role where I can work remotely globally. I’m currently a “ministry assistant” which is essentially an executive assistant/admin/customer service rep all in one. I’d love to expand my skills and work outside my current work world (I currently work in a church). Does anyone have any leads?

Just cannot get into my job lately. I don’t know if it’s the hormones, the upcoming FET transfer next week, or if I’m truly just over my company. I’ve been there 5 1/2 years. I started out as an executive assistant and last year I created a path for myself for communications. Almost a year into the role, a new manager was brought on, to my surprise. She is great, but I’m finding I don’t have enthusiasm for this role at all. I don’t think I have a choice to go back to being an executive assistant
