I just think one of these days most of us will look back and be like, "eh, I guess it wasn't that big of a deal".
I don't know, maybe its the Rolling Rock typing, but is PSA's "new" contract REALLY that bad...? Compared to what I'm used to, PDT, its not that bad at all. Ok, I will say the pay caps blow, but other than that?
The well educated haters hate the fact that majority of PSA pilots voted in concessions for job security and pay cap. The whining clueless keyboard warriors say PSA have crappy pay and contract when in reality, PSA pilots probably make more than most other regionals except horizon, awac and possibly expressjet. And no you shouldn't go by the apc pay scale. Our contract is fine but just sucks we couldn't hold the line.
