If you’re insinuating that the company would avoid a profit in order to avoid paying out a little PS to the pilots, you maybe need to take a break from social media. If you’re instead convinced the company would somehow pull some kind of gimmick to avoid paying out PS notwithstanding having booked a profit, then what you’re really saying is that you don’t have faith that our negotiators would secure ironclad-enough PS language.
In either case, the problem isn’t profit sharing as a concept. There are plenty of instances in business where it’s worked to the mutual benefit of labor and management.
