Why should he leave to fly for anyone else? Does this mean that when any pilot asks for a raise they should just go to wherever they pay more? How is it okay to negotiate an increase in pay, but when kman says that he is happy where he works, but would be even happier with more money, you treat that as a bad thing?


It is the American way of life to strive for more, strive for better and reach for the stars. That is how change is made and how people get things done.

If you're not happy at your job, then find something else. But if you are happy with your job, but want more....go for it! That is the reason that pilots don't make minimum wage. If no one wanted or asked for more, they would never get it. Business is not in the habit of just giving money away.
