I’m certain he was referring to our generation of American corporate welfare ‘1’ percenters, exhibited by our management’s wealth entitlement mentality. To which our current pay bump is a contractual status quo requirement, that was previously negotiated by our former representatives.
Thanks for your support.

No.
In fact, I will continue to track and post airline executive compensation every time there is new information to post, especially as long as the trends in the graph below remain unchanged. It has nothing to do with "entitlement mentality", unless you are a senior exec. of course. We can clearly see WHO the entitlement-minded folks are in this graph, and it's sure as hell not the flight crews.
Funny how the rise in exec. compensation has far out-paced any increase in corp. profitability. So, no, even THAT argument/explanation falls flat.
