I did not take it as him "lecturing" us. I voted for the big pay cut because I was led to believe it would keep us out of BK.
I was wrong and feel that we as a pilot group were "taken to the cleaners" by management.
I now believe that we were going into BK with or without pay-cuts and management played us. I think there is something there when it is said that we unwittingly helped or participated in the reset to our wages.
