Skywest Inc's full intent is to make the two groups stand against eachother so skywest will never have a union and it sure seems to work when i hear things like this. Skywest's "goodwill" is a function of need, they need more people and they want to keep there pilot's no union. Hey if their sister carrier is making more then the pilot's might want a union to help them... anyways
No this was Mgmnt 101. Don't give up the house in case they vote the union in and if they vote it down reward them. This how they've stayed union free for 35 years. It was well played my Mgmnt regardless of whether it was right or not.
Now spin it. Say I'm drinking Kool-Aid! That I'm Mgmnt!

No man i know you aren't infact i think you were the one who wanted the union the most on this forum. It just frustrates me the majority of the pilots at skywest think management is their best friends, It kills me that ASA gets just a little better and skywest will be matched, if both groups worked together we could get the best contract in the industry but ASA will only be able to get so much without you guys working with us, and trust me you will always get the raise after we do.
