Agree with all your points. If there was to be data collected, you think EVERY pilot at UAL has a clean criminal record? Just curious. By the time you throw in things like DUI's, or anything else stupid a pilot at (insert legacy here) can do after they get hired and still keep their job.
Emb,
I havent voted yes in years. As far a a clean record, they DID have a clean record when they got hired, and a four year education.
Listen, this is a bad deal for everyone we arent going to fix this today nor here. Heck man, I flew for the commuters, but I flew commuter flying. Everyone has to start somewhere, I wasnt born with an ATP, I just know the current situation isnt going to cut it. You guys could stand up for better working conditions, schedules, some retirement, crew lounges, etc. That alone would start to turn the tables. This is what mgt sees. Hardly any work rules, no QWL in the contracts, zero retirement, cheap training. The RJ's are a Lorenzo wet dream! Change it on your side, stop waiting for us to do it for you....
Best,
