Why are some of you falling for the oldest trick in the book?
Maybe some of use don’t want anything to do with WB and drive to work. Why should I give up a great QOL for a crappy one just so I can make $2-3 more an hr and say, “hey, I get free dry cleaning for this Admiral’s blazer!”
Pay me more than any other 737 pilot and fix our problem areas and I’m happy. If I wanted to go to UAL/DL…I would have. If your kid is happy here, leave him alone. If he wants to leave, he would. You’re the one who sounds miserable and might benefit from a 1 yr upgrade somewhere else. 🤷🏼♂️
