We should greater compensation not necessarily offset by anything other than the fact that there is no product without us, the employees, and that product is very good right now. Mountains of cash.
I honestly don't care how and why management sees what they see. We don't get a key to the executive wash room and we don't get a corner office.
We're pilots...……...We need to think like pilots. At the end of the day our career is what we value it at, and not what management says its worth.
I am tired of low ball expectations coming out of management's mouth. Their homes are paid for, and their kids college funds are safe and secure, and their retirements were funded the day they got hired. most of them have second and third homes, and they get to ride in first class whenever they want.
Tired of management left overs being handed down to the ones making this happen. We, the pilots are in the drivers seat and we're in charge. Take it back, take it all friggin back. We're still about 15 years behind in taking it back.
the lost decade has had a domino effect on everything economic related to pilots earnings and retirements.
We still got a pilot shortage. That should mean something to management. That means "management hasn't done enough to restore the profession." If they had done their work, on their side of the table, then we wouldn't have a shortage of pilots, we'd have a gluttony.
