Until then you are just a crazy man that cut down his corn to build a baseball field that is hearing voices in your head.
This is huge for new hires and first year FOs. It's alright for pilots on step two and three, but it's a huge slap in the face for senior FOs. However, if this creates more movement and helps us upgrade faster then I think might alleviate some of the sting for the slap in the face.
For the past year these incentives they have rolled out have fallen way short. This proposal although not as good as I would of wanted might just be enough to get the people we need in the door. Time will only tell.
Maybe you need to he doing more not to chase away newhires or potential new hires online forums....
Maybe more will come & you can flow.
Its more than Mgmts job, we all have a role to play to play improving and all our words are impactful to both potential newhires and current. Don't burn the hand that feeds you, find intelligent ways to make a difference.
People all pilots at the WO should do atleast one of the following to make a difference.
1. Get involved in Union
2. Volunteer to help Union
3. Volunteer at company Charity events and network.
4. Try to get involved or with recruiting and make extra cash
5. Try not to trash your home base, pilot group, or union members fighting for your benefits publicly. Keep your grievence inhouse and solve it inhouse like mature individuals do. Your bitting both hands trying to eat from plate (in other words, your hurting your own future prospectus 1 debbie downer salty post at a time).
Just my opinion. Strong pilot group, strong WO, strong Union.
EVY/PSA/PDT support each other. BE united, be a strong a WO/pilot group GOING FORWARD.
