We’ve got to be losing more than a pilot a day. Does anyone have any CREDIBLE intel on whether the Kompany’s grown concerned yet about this?
Also, I don’t see any reason why they can’t throw a big retention bonus at this problem and there isn’t much SWAPA could do about it.
A few months ago I thought this was a bit dramatized by the SWAPA, so I started checking the seniority list daily when logging into CWA. It’s at least 1-2 a day at this point coming from the bottom 5 years of the seniority list….not to mention 15-20 retirements monthly, which will be increasing also.
If the company is concerned they will never admit to it and give us any leverage. But hopefully they are taking a hard look at why this is happening.
