24 F, Atl ... Slide In 😏
Hi, I'm leaving Citi in 2 months.It's hard to make this decision. I have an offer from a small startup.In citi, my previous experience was not considered and was reskilled to different tech which is the reason for change.I don't like to exit citi. As I like the company so much.But considering my current knowledge,I am in the middle of the sea.I am afraid now that the new company's offer would be revoked due to this recession?Or can I take back my resignation in citi before the last working day.Is this wise decision?
Recs for LA & San Fran??

Mike Pence's plane skidded off the runway
My plane was 30 mins from landing (at 8pm) and turned back to CLT. I would have been down for JFK and as a fallback, miracle on the Hudson round 2.
I'm cancelled! Already in my Sheraton robe
My 8pm from ORD to LGA is 35 mins delayed. Sounds like a ground stop due to weather conditions at LGA / JFK
Weather isn't helping but LGA is closed to all inbound traffic until at least 9pm (0100 UTC) due to the aircraft incident. Monitor http://www.fly.faa.gov/ois/ ... expect update on the ground stop at 9 but the FAA states the probability of extension (POE) as high. I would start making contingency plans for a cancellation.
I'm LGA to ORD
@P3 Cool, learned something
My ATL to LGA which was supposed to land at 7.15, juuust landed in Philly
LGA is gonna be a shit show kids. Strongly recommend you rebook to EWR, JFK or HPN if you can.
@OP limited departures are happening on the other runway but the wind direction is not optimal for that and emergency vehicles are out around the incident aircraft and need to cross that runway. If it were me I'd rebook for the morning before you potentially cancel and have limited options in the AM.
Just landed in philly and crew says we're refueling and flying back to NYC
Did you see the pictures? Tarmac literally torn open.
@BCG1 That is the EMAS (Engineered Materials Arrestor System) and it did its job - stop the plane before it winds up in the bay, which has happened before on runway overruns st LGA. It's not part of the taxiway or runway and is intended to sink the landing gear in as a last ditch way to stop the plane while minimizing aircraft damage. It appears it did its job beautifully and may have averted a disaster. EMAS installs are a priority globally where runways are short and boxed in by water, buildings, mountains etc.
So that option not available for us now tho #nobueno
The FAA actually released the ground stop at 9pm but is expecting minimum 3 hour delays, and a max of only 20 arrivals per hour, which will probably put a lot of crews over duty time and cancel many flights.
Good luck to fellow sufferers
@P3 that is interesting. Good to know someone thought of that, I really don't want to go into the river.
P3 - they landed Rwy 22. The EMAS kept them from a trip down the side of the hill onto the GCP.
@P4- river or GCP. Yikes.
@P4 ah, an initial report said that runway 4 was in use. Overrunning 22 onto the GCP would have been even worse.
