Can you imagine the bonus bendo will recieve for getting rid of that language?
There are zero reasons why we shouldn't receive industry leading wages and retirement "DOS" with the amount saved by getting rid of transition language. As if having the lowest CASM in the industry wasn't enough to convince this group we should be the highest paid, getting rid of transition would require we be paid.
The cavet being, unless of course we're into subsidizing spirits growth on our backs with poor wages.
So, are we?
