So what if the company eeks out 9Q in a row of profit? When is it ok to get ours? When is it ok to get alittle upset when your told your gonna get it and then they don't give? When is it ok to be iritated because your told you are going to get average, not more, not industry leading, just average and don't even get that.
You'll get hired here soon enough. Bright, energetic, willing to take it for the team at any cost, unwilling to learn from history. The first three things there are good things by the way. You can change the unwilling to learn thing. Pilot unions are not labor unions at the car plant or the coal mine. No one here is trying to break the bank or strangle the golden goose. Most of us here have 15-30 years to go and would like to not leave. We do however deserve better. Wake up man, stop drinkin the coolaid, your not even here yet. If you were as smart as you think you are you'll go to another airline and progress faster and make more money.
