The minimum day increase from the last pay package was just enough to keep most reserve pilots from breaking guarantee and probably saved the company quite a bit of money. And they convinced us (SAPA) that it was a win for the pilot group. They have already been doing this flying for awhile now and I don't see them stopping. SAPA will get talked into how this is a good thing and how to sell it to the pilot group, or we will get some PBS training or another golden day to offset the loss.

The fact that we continue to see more and more QOL loss and nobody does anything has convinced me that we will never get a union here. Those that want better will leave but before they leave, they will approve some changes that they won't be around to feel the effects of. Thanks JP!!
