Wow...

What a bunch of diverse BS...Our pilot group wants and needs compensation commensurate with out sacrifices...period! Unfortunately I have to exempt those who did not sacrifice, so I have no choice but ignore the voices of the newbys...they did not sacrifice.

As for the rest of us: get real! We want a better package! Profit sharing is just what it describes...SHARING what management happens to create as profits. It IS NOT part of our normal compensation! It can be thousands or it can be ZERO...and it is not our choice! But it is a result of out sacrifices! We may get it OR we don't...we have no control over that bit of money that is presented to us!!!

Treat it as such! We are "Sharing" in the success of our company based on the fact that we took pay cuts to create those profits that they now want to count as part of the compensation that we gave up! I want pay rates commensurate with our contribution...and I consider us lacking in that arena!

P.S. When they give us back the millions we lost in pension payments...we can talk "equitatable compensation"
