All I want to know is, will we get a profit sharing check?
Many pilots forget we have more in common with the hourly ramp worker than the management types. They forget we're working under a contract and are employed by the airlines and not part of the management/investment class. We get paid the same no matter how the company preforms or is run. The way some problem talk here you would think we were all early investors in some tech start-up about to make it big.

I care only so far as to make sure my paychecks keep coming, everything above that isn't my problem or concern.

Ripinpeace and friendlypilot are both two sides of the same coin. Hard core company butt kissers that make their respective companies their lives. If you read their posts on their respective forum sections they are mouthpieces for their companies and will follow you around the site if you dare speak ill of their company. They both love coming over to the aa forum to remind 'the special needs airline of the industry' how much better their companies are. They come on these forums and post like a deranged eagles fan goes on web forums and posts about a season. Much like the eagles fan these two have nothing else going on in their lives if this is their priority

Can't you two argue about who has the biggest house, nicest car or hottest wife like normal classless pilots? This fixation with your employers profit margins is weird. Like either of you had any say in it.
