I wasn't trying to tell people not to pickup open time. I was trying to point out that GJ pilots are negotiating a new contract and they keep giving things to the company that allows the company to keep going without a new contract. First the bonus, now this little change. They are taking pennies and allowing the dollars to go away. Reminds me of how the Chirstmas turkey has replaced the Christmas bonus.

Same things are going on at Republic. The union allows the bonuses and the company can keep delaying the contract for all. Pilots have the leverage for the first time in 50 years and they are not using it.

This must have scared some since it brought out all the management people to attack me and misdirect the message.
