Hate to break it to you, but try hauling the jug of shame around doing 4 leg a.m. hub turns all week for the next 5 years, and you'll be begging to fly widebodies in Asia or France for $135-140 an hr (after your 1st year).
It's obvious this guy hasn't even read our current contract - we don't have to carry a jug of shame anymore
Also, believed the MEC line about being stuck and the company hiring foreign pilots to do our work when he cries wolf about being stuck on the panel for 5 years -Oh the Horror - Get a grip man, lots of us have been there done that, some alot longer.
Begging to fly in Asia or Frnce - Do the math man - a pay raise aint always an improvement on quality of life or take home pay when it has strings attached!
Also, I thought we rushed into this LOA thing because it was holding up the MOAB. Glad you 68%ers put on the blinders and leapt in head first. How many weeks has it been since this thing passed and still no bid and the rumors are it won't be much of anything anyway!
CloudSailor, Good luck and hope to see you here soon. Ignore the you can't complain until you been here crowd. Most of em haven't been here that long either!
