So new hires,the lowest guys on the totem pole, on probationary pay, flying the line, generating profits.....are deemed unworthy? Someone negotiated the contract that way and someone ratified it. Maybe it needs changing, maybe not.
Like I said, if a newb bases his decision on where to go on this(or they deem it significant) I'd rather they not apply at my airline
BTW, what would u call it if you don't like "eat their young"
.......illogical....egregious... better for the other guys...."pay your dues" ....appropriate when taken in toto...reasonable.... ???? Justify it by saying "Well, I'll buy them a pop on the layover" IDK just curious
New hires now have it better than ever. I made $28 a hour as a new hire and had to pay for my own hotel room until I finished Indoc and Initial Training. If its so much better at Delta, go there (oh and Delta DOESN’T pay for a hotel for new hires, you are on your own)
We have 2 month 777 FOs and kids are complaining about no profit sharing, when 7 years ago we had Airbus FOs on reserve who had been here 14 years.
Its not ALPA negotiated, but a company policy, so its all employee groups, not just because ALPA is screwing you.
I’m really getting tired of the over-entitled millennials.
