The most galling thing about it was that after the vote failed, the good reverend went around telling people that he was trying to pay his pilots more money,...... but that the pilots wouldn't accept his generous offering. Of course, he left out the part where he was only offering more money to new first officers while ****ssing on the rest of the group, simply to make it easier for him to continue to hire pilots at severely depressed wages,...... (and allowing him to collect larger and larger bonus checks and stock options).

Isn't there some commandment that says "thou shall not bear false witness", reverend?
