Not so, at least not with me. I work at ExpressJet. We drink the kool aid with the best of any Skywest pilot. I beleive we have an excellent management team that treats us like professionals, for the most part. We just NOT dellusional in thinking that managements' first concerns are with the shareholders and sometimes that is in direct contrast to the best interests of pilots. And that is okay. That is their job. I'm glad they do it to keep the company afloat. But we also are able to look out in the best interest of pilots first with real leverage and real good faith bargaining. And sometimes we agree that pilots may have to sacrafice a bit now for a better long term situation. Trust me, we know this, especially those of us doing the Branded, Delta, and charter side of our business.
