Our ltd is worse than a regional. Get $500/Hr and lose your medical, screwed. The pay and retirement more than make up for transition conflict. If you don't think so you are here as a hobby not a career to make money and support a family.
Is this what you indicated in the most recent survey?? PBS, transition/vacation drop language and all in exchange for United overall compensation? If not, and I don't mean you specifically, I don't think people here voiced their opinions clearly to the negotiating team. Many here were previously demanding United compensation with our current work rules. Now it seems the music has changed and PBS, no more 4-day off guarantee, and transition/vacation drop language isn't as important as it once was.... Maybe I'm misinterpreting these most recent posts....
My point is, we need to make sure that the negotiating team is actually negotiating on our behalf. And I'll say the music sounded different 6 months ago, than these past few pages of posts regarding work rules....
