Impressive, finding one of you is like trying to find bigfoot.
Nice contribution. I hope you're not still at mesa, cuz that is surely one black pot.
I'm not a koolaid drinker either. In the grand scheme of things this is barely holding the line. The only real raise is for entry-level pilots, whom the company is going to have trouble attracting and retaining on the bro anyway.
The money they did throw our way (medical, per diem) is all tax deductable for the employees so subtract 30% of that to account for the lost tax deduction.
The only significant win was breaking the BHO paradigm.
But with all that said it's still better than the massive concessions which other groups are rolling over for.
