Do the math on 30 years multiplied by 1.9 plus another 10 years plus 7% a year. It’s a really big number. I am tired of hearing how much Boeing guys suck, how little our balls are, our contract was written for our life style. Would I like some changes, yes. But right now how L-VX pilots run their mouths dogging me and my family members, I don’t want to go a foot out of my way to help you guys. Learn respect, how to treat and talk to other human beings and you may find them more sympathetic to your cause.
Didn't you sell out the A-plan so the junior guys you are bragging about it for aren't getting it? Your last two sentences are quite ironic.

You have a 5:15 average daily min too? Didn't know that.
Seriously, my whole point is that there is room for improvement. Why not work towards it? I am well aware you are enjoying being the big rich fish...but I don't think getting our rules would hurt you at all. I have friends at Alaska and I really hope you can make improvements. It helps everyone but it also recognizes the hard work you do.
