How in the world was 1224 holding K4 back? If Connie had offered a $40 an hour raise with a 2.5% match he'd have probably gotten over 50%.
Look... There's no magic wand. If management wants to treat you the way Atlas/Southern is treated then it's up to the pilot group. Since Atlas can't vote 100% of their pilots younger than about 58 should have apps out. Leave.
You are either trying to start an argument or you have no idea of why K4 left 1224. Retirement was never even on the table for K4. Wasn’t even mentioned. Way higher priority items for our pilot group. Great results by our negotiation committee that 1224 tried to take away from us, good riddance
