It actually wasn't imposed. It was signed by the union. And, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think what he's saying is that is a high rate of pay. To move to a major/legacy would be a pay cut and would take many years to get back to the same level.

Really, Comair isn't all the doom and gloom that many say it is. Pay is reasonable and just about down the middle of the industry. Sure, there are those who get paid more to do the same thing we do in the same plane, but there are those who make a lot less.

In all reality, life is what you make of it.
