I can't complain too much. Do I deserve better for what I do? Of course? Be nice to find a balance of pleasant work environment, pride in the company who signs our paycheck, and optimistic outlook of the future. Like I have said.. abide by the contract, if you don't know it or don't bother to read it then it's on you. It is poorly written, but it's also relatively short...read it...hold the company to it, but keep your head up. Let's keep the outlook positive and remember it's not always wise to bite the hand that feeds you.
You seem to be content at Atlas, but you're still missing the point. The more pilots that get hired here, the less prone the company will be to get serious about negotiations.

"... not wise to bite the hand that feeds us???"

Our Executive team awarded themselves a 66 million dollar bonus that was earned from our efforts. And we got nothing!

I say take their stinking hand and shove it into a friggin' wood chipper!
