More media-idiocy-BS. I like how they say certain states, such as Florida and Illinois are the states that pay the most for F/A's and ATC, respectively, as if a F/A could move to FL and get better pay. This corporate/management sponsored "information" (this one comes from Forbes magazine) completely undermines labor movements and significantly reduces public support for better work rules. "You make 102K a year! Stop complaining! etc. etc. etc." I just had a guy in an elevator look at me after an overnight in some podunk rinky dinky hotel at the end of a five day trip, and he said I should be happy, I make 300 to 400K a year!!! No joke, this was three days ago.

Though some disagree, I have no problems educating those who need to be educated about our pay and work rules, even if they're my customers. They have a right to know, and if we're being misaligned by constant propaganda, it's only up to us to rectify it.
