That was tongue in cheek. We aren't anywhere close. The company is intentionally stalling by making insulting offers to sections of our contract that aren't even industry standard. Why anyone would seek employment here is beyond me.
Prospective employees don't understand how dirtbag this management team really is. They get sucked in with the promise of a fast upgrade on a shiny new A320. What they don't tell you is there is always a new section of our contract the company decides to "reinterpret," you will be on reserve for close to a year, you likely won't upgrade with the current order book unchanged, and you won't make 6 figures in the right seat for quite a long time. Buyer beware.
In the meantime there will also be hundreds of pilots who proclaim "it's better than my regional!" So why should this incompetent management team give us any more money?
