We are no different than gate agents, rampers, etc. We are an expense and historically spirit management will fight tooth and nail for every penny. They will also willing violate the contract when it soots them, not honoring 4 days off, fighting the bid conflicts and countless other examples.
Historically that's what Spirit does. I wish they would prove me wrong but the more emails that come out from the NC the more I think we are in it for the long run. They did no show Wednesday. That's probably just the start.
So how does this make them different from any other airline management? You guys act like spirit is exceptional in their hatred for pilots. They all hate pilots. They all work with the same law firm. Their negotiating is all straight from Ford and Harrison.
