work rules. Work rules make us money. Company wants staffing efficiency, that significantly cuts into our pay. Its a wash if not cost saving for the company. Our PWA protections allow us to make far more money than whats gonna happen when this TA ties our hands (reference my example in another post of the harm done to us when one pilot is bumped down to reserve - just 1 pilot!).
If the world implodes next week, youre taking a pay cut anyway "to save the company" like you did 2x before. Hows that for the gorllia/elephant in the room. The argument that our pay rates are more protected than our PS hasn't held water ever, but one thing is for sure, when you give away work rules you never get them back. stop the bleeding. please please please stop the bleeding.
