For the life of me I don't understand why pilots flying a 76 seat plane, on mainline routes, feel they need to accept ANY offer from a company, that is run by a mega company, that is essentially printing money, that is anything less than mainline pay. And while we're at it, adjusted for inflation on the mainline level. Too long have theese corporate entities made millions off the backs of their employees only to file for bankruptcy and get a second chance. **** them. This is the situation they have created. If they wish for the gravy train to roll, they will pay us every dime of what we are reasonably asking for, or they can suck a fat dick. Which is to say maybe bend an inch to what a free market is demanding.
