Here is my opinion of the reality the NC is facing. Almost no one is resigning and classes continue to be filled. Envoy operates like someone living off of welfare, the only way for them to increase profits is to cut costs. AAG dictates the flying, it’s Envoys job to get it done cheap. So, why should Envoy out of the goodness of their hearts increase QOL and pay when it only hurts them? I’m not saying things shouldn’t be better, but the NC is still facing somewhat of an uphill battle until classes go empty or people begin to leave for other carriers.
Your previous comment about how the company only benefited was ridiculous. But it’s also called negotiating. We came out ahead in that grievance LOA for sure. And ALPA is largely a volunteer group, if you want to see things bettered, you should be willing to get your hands dirty. It’s fine to complain and you’re free to do so, but don’t expect anything to change if you’re not willing to do something about it.
