Let's name the airlines that have a good to great Mgmnt/labor group relationship: SWA, XJT & SKW. Hmmmmm? There might be a few others but 95+% of all carriers have poor relationships and extremely low moral.
Remember that even GoJet has "adequate, good, qualified employees." This statement has no merit seeing that every carrier must obtain at least this to operate. SKW (as I'm sure SWA & XJT do) understands that maintaining levels far beyond that of adequate or good results in outstanding performance which intern has a large indirect effect on the “Bottom Line;” and as we all know the “Bottom Line” is what Mgmnt and their shareholders care about.
We work hard for our airline and they reward us. Yes it could and needs to be more, but it always can be more.
