I think anyone in their right mind would rather keep that 2% and put in their 401k or pay their mortgage or start a business or buy a boat. But where do you think the wages and benefits came from to allow you to do those things? Out of the kindness of management's heart? Ask a SkyWest newhire FO how much fun living in California or Chicago is on $19/hr.
