What? I got paid 70:42 for reserve and CQ. Not always just 70...

From the WSJ

"Terry Erskine, a consultant and retired labor negotiator for Delta Air Lines Inc., acknowledges that pilots are frustrated. But he thinks they haven't tempered their expectations sufficiently. "It hasn't sunk in yet that it's a forever-changed industry," he says."

I guess Southwest hasn't gotten the message yet! Thanks Terry for the wake up call! I'll just tell my family to "temper their expectations sufficiently". I wonder how he's enjoying all the cash he bailed with from
Delta? Hey Terry.... F#%! YOU!!!

Perhaps the company should think about tempering their expectations from the pilot group... No buck.... No Buck Rogers.
^^^ All time, best post ever.

Back on APC for a short stint, didn't take long for everyone to get as excited about reserve as I've been. Welcome to "Club Leash.". Anyone else counting their long calls from home on three or less fingers?
