AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT ALASKA AIRLINES

SeaTac, Washington-based Alaska Airlines, a major regional airline operating along the West Coast, has announced a post-merger reduction in force following its acquisition of' Honolulu, Hawaii-based Hawaiian Airlines.

The reduction will impact 57 non-union corporate headquarters employees in Honolulu and 16 mainland employees. The layoffs will be completed by December 17, 2024.

According to a company spokesperson, "We know this is a very challenging time for our team members and we are committed to supporting everyone through their career transition."

Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
