-worst QOL-worst schedules
-min days off means max as well-worst union (be prepared for changes sent from management THEN an email hours later from your union claiming they didn't know the changes were happening)
-union dues to an incompetent union with ZERO ability to negotiate or HOW to negotiate.
-flow to AA 8 yrs atleast.
That dude trolled you and you fell for it…. But, just for S&Gs, how long do you estimate the flow is for a new hire at the other WOs? Shorter than 8 years??? Truth is, you have NO idea how long the flow is at this moment given the current circumstances and anything you say is pure speculation. Also, the union was able to navigate this pandemic and work
with the company to avoid furloughing a single pilot. This is (hopefully) the worst crisis we will face in our careers and there is no doubt we should have furloughed. Instead, many of us were released from duty with full pay while almost 1,000 of our ALPA brothers and sisters at PSA and Envoy were on the street and many others were forced to downgrade. To say that this union leadership is “incompetent” is simply ignorant. Your energy is misdirected.
