You're post is wrong, I said we SHOULD be paid at least what Spirit makes, if not more, they are our peers. People here just want a reason to complain and it is very frustrating.
I don't ever pull the "I am the Captain card," unless I absolutely have to. I will quickly overrule anyone who is trying to take illegal work actions into their own hands. There is absolutely no reason to admonish someone for doing their job correctly, which is basically what happened to me. Why do you care what color my lanyard is? That's none of your business.
By the way, I would be very careful on here, many people are basically admitting to illegal work actions. These people who are constantly running the APU and insisting on two engine taxi everywhere, and writing up the smallest, stupidest things, it will catch up with you...
Thanks for setting the bar high and saying we should at least be making Spirit pay.
Wearing the lanyard is a show of solidarity among our pilot group and what we're all fighting for. I'd ask you wear it to show you stand with our negotiating committee and union. In my opinion not wearing it makes you look uninterested and disengaged. If you think rocking your Broncos lanyard is more important, have at it.
