Left job at AA

[Thorgrim]

On Friday I left my job at Am. Airlines, via early-out. Back in Oct-Nov time period we were told that we would be going to mandatory rotation. Up until now they had been letting me work dayshift when I have my son for the school term (he's in 3rd grade), I appreciate that; but I was told that the company was not going to make exceptions anymore. So I basically had to make a choice between only seeing my son two days a week when I'm on seconds and have him raised by a sitter or leave my job and take the buy-out. I chose the buy-out. Of course the company is still doing bid shift schedule. Anyway, I wish my friends well; but the company can go kiss my ass for forcing a single parent to make such a decision. The union wasn't much help either.

Anyway, I'll be on to new adventures. I haven't decided how long I'll stay in the area. I do plan on remaining on this site, even if I move.

Good on you for doing the right thing for your son's future, and here's hoping you find the "right" place sooner than you'd hoped!
