Dude.........you really need to get a grip. "Us" guys didn't do a damn thing. ALPA negotiated Eagle's contract and they're mid-seniority. Additionally, as stated before Eagle's pay is in the middle of the pact, competition wise.
Are you like your pal in advocating Eagle take further pay cuts to............well, what on god's earth ARE you talking about ?
For a guy who states his QOL is awesome and that he couldn't care less about upgrade, you're all over the place in the opposite direction.

Undo this garbage your selfish take take take generation has created.
If your plan is truly to retire at Eagle, you'd think you'd be making the opposite argument and claims and holding firm on the best compensation contract possible, so you have something when you've paid those dues. Instead you're doing the exact opposite bellyaching about how those prior to you screwed you out of something by doing the exact thing you should be supporting...........but glaringly are not.
Sorry.......I just can't buy this bill of goods.
