Yep, the same tough guys that just voted themselves a concession are going to have a hissy-fit because people that have been here longer make more money. Didn't happen last time, what makes these guys so different? Oh yeah, this time we will be in the middle of the pilot shortage we have been waiting for for 20 years. Sorry junior guys, we are all in for a disappointment.
BTW, here are some fun facts:
My pre-strike pay scale was higher than my post-strike pay scale.
Pilots that were here 6 months got a 7K bonus; while the 15 year guys got 3K. Yeah, the senior guys really ran away with it.
If you want change this time, better change the NC while you can, because 70% of this entire group (including you new tough guys) will vote yes to anything they put in front of you.
