This. Doug H, be sure to let us know how bright they tell you the future is, because all we're hearing is that the company is going out of business because we greedy pilots get paid too much.
Ehhhhh!!! Smoke and mirrors man. They can talk their asses off cause 83% of the pilots don't give a flying ______ anymore. In the end we all know greener pastures await and I think they might be starting to get it. It doesn't benefit them to not play ball. Shrinking drastically hinders the economies of scale that they wanted to much with this merger. Saying they are just going to comair us to get back the the greedy pilots is counter intuitive. You never succeed in business by refusing to do business..... If the end is near so be it, even if they wanted to give skywest massive growth, they wouldn't have the pilots to staff. The EMB-175's on order are for refleeting skywest and XJT. They just wanted to take a shot at getting us to sign on to garbage (which our pathetic union signed off on), don't be fooled, they will bid on contracts. The new normal ( pilot hiring situation) dictates higher paying contracts and the majors will re adjust.
