I'm not a fan of pilots not voting until off probation, nor of them not getting profit sharing or any of the other rewards of working for this company. The gate they had to pass was getting hired and trained here. After that they're our peers. Full stop.
As someone who's been in this industry for several decades and seen far too much old guard rhetoric, I will say all it does it diminish new hires respect of us. And well deserved at that.
Fix reserve rules for those that come after us and for those below us in seniority. Fix voting rights, and fix profit sharing. Let's make this the place people want to work by showing everyone who comes that we value them as equals.
This times 1,000 ^^^^. I will never understand someone being ****ed at someone else because “they got a better deal.” If you got a 777 bid as a new hire….good for you. Have a great attitude and willingness to learn and it will be good. It’s not 1990 anymore.
