You are WAY, WAY, WAY off on that one. The ONLY reason those guys are making 23 dollars an hour are because they TOOK the job getting paid 23 dollars an hour.
You cannot AGREE to work for someone for 23 dollars an hour and then now say you wanna burn the place down because they pay you 23 dollars an hour.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Quit your crying, *****ing, moaning and complaining and let your feet do your talking. That is the only thing that will fix the mess that YOU have created.
The mess we created? You're telling me the contracts that YOU negotiated are the mess we created? I didn't let regional companies start flying regional JETS painted in mainline colors because I was too much of a tough guy to fly a "little plane". And as for letting my feet do the talking, do you have a better way of getting Turbine PIC in a 121 environment? Cuz I don't. I can't get to "your" company unless I put up with the BS "you" created at this level. All the mainline guys did was outsource our future jobs at that level so they could hold on to their pay rates and then look down on us for trying to get up to that level. Thanks *******************(figure that one out). And that's the other problem with your generation, they shift blame to everyone but themselves. When I screw up, I admit it and correct it. Not you guys...it's just our fault for being here. Get over yourself.
