PBP in 2015 was 10% which puts it at $24,249. This makes the total $299,373 which is greater than your $273k. If part of your 401k is company match (I remember reading somewhere it was 7.5% match), your figure would be even less. Ours was 13.5% straight up from the company. I just wanted to clear some things up.
Hey Knock squared, chill the f-out bro. You're going to stroke out behind the keyboard.
Trust me guy, I’m far from stroking out. I’ve accepted this merger AND the fact there’s nothing I can do, in all my earthly powers, to change a thing about it. I don’t see the value in anonymous forum fights between pilot groups that are gonna be sharing a cockpit in the very near future. If comparing W2’s from 3 years ago completes you, then fine, I guess there is value in it. I think we’d all benefit from focusing on what our W2’s look like after 2020.
