I'll be sure to think about how expensive we are next time I am counting my pennies in front of pax in my sparkling uniform outside of McDonalds to check if it is in my budget to buy myself a snack-wrap. Maybe we can even think of putting up drop-boxes in the crew-rooms to donate money back to the company if we'd like.
Not sure who this Red97Vette guy is, but I'm definitely embarrassed by his comments and willingness to lower the bar. Not sure how his fellow pilots became his enemy...
Although we may have vastly different contracts, work rules and perceptions we are both under the same management team now. Comments like his and the constant mud slinging accomplishes what?
We both want improvements in out next contract and arguing about the past XJT and using 2nd and 3rd hand information in your argument doesn't get us closer to that.
Fact. XJT, ASA, SKW, have never gone bankrupt.
Fact. With the funds that Inc. has in the bank this will not happen anytime in the near or distant future.
Fact. Regardless of you feeling about the separate groups we are run by a (Relatively) very competent and efficient management teams that, dare I say it, know how to run an airline.
Pilot wages WILL NOT bankrupt an airline.
Come on guys, let's be sensible here!
