Those who don't apply for the pilot job will never get hired and it's the same in negotiating, don't ask won't get a thing.
Nothing at all wrong with the company asking, but IMHO, we'd be crazy to even consider something that is not well above the rates in the TAs that are out there. I'd personally rather they focus their energy on getting the FAs and Mechs a contract first. If Oscar is serious about righting the ship, I think that is step one. Our contract is ammendable soon, we'll have our time to see if he's serious about labor peace.
