Understand Alaska is a “smaller” company & will never pay or treat you as DL, UA, FedEx or UPS.
So you are using the end down line numbers as the current pay rates in your argument. This is what happens all the time here… yeah and Sun country is making 293 now. See with other contracts we use the end of their contract rates to make us feel bad about working for terrible AS. UPS rates starting next month are 361.00 and Sun Country is making 260.00.
If you are always comparing the current rates where you work to pay rates somewhere else 3 years in the future, you are always going to be disappointed… no matter where you work.
But yes UPS got a good contract… just not what you are holding it out as. They are hiring 🤔
