If you are not willing to leave, the company owns you. We are where we are because leaving is “unthinkable”.
That’s facts. This mentality is how we get an industry leading contract. We have to be willing to leave. Too many opportunities out here at Delta, FedEx, United etc to get hung up on SWA. If SWA isn’t willing to make up for the single fleet type by having the best contract in the industry, then time to go.
