P.S.- We should trade all this for our ****ty crew meals =P
We are so behind the rest of the industry that nothing should be traded. However, the company will never give us anything as long as their operation keeps on humming along; the pilots need to stop giving high fives to the passengers, stop putting up with our horrible pairings and most importantly stop giving a f@@@ if the company makes a profit until we get, at the least, an industry standard contract.
