That's my feel talking to pilots. You can try to talk about SWA and Fedex but some don't care. "I don't want to fly all night!" um, even on the 88 I seem to be landing at 1-3am lately.
"I don't want to fly SWA trips. It's too much. I come here, I want 1-2 legs a day, I want long overnights so I can drink some beer. I mean those guys do like 20 hour 3 days! That's stupid."
I'll keep fighting but 55% at a min if they promise 15% raise, that's my sad bet.
I guess I'd cancel out one of those guys if we flew together. I want to come to work, fly my butt off for 3 days, and go home. Do that 12 days a month and I can drink my cheap beer at home.
Something for everybody I guess, but my 1.5 hr butt likes to be productive, which means no 3 hour sits or 32 hr layovers in the usual maddog garden spots.
