I do not have the 777 on my standing bid. I am not sure that I would blame someone that chose to. Is it a surprise to anyone here that they aren't paying 380 rates for the 777? Arbitration may be the best bet, maybe we can get something in between. Of course the company locked in the 757 rates. The company gets the better of us again....

How about a paradigm shift? How about UPS' pay system based on seat position rather than seat position/aircraft type. Just a thought... Discuss...
Ahem, in the meantime we have peer pressure to exert, get the word out; shun the oldsters who bid the 777. Fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice..well, we know how the LOA for foreign domiciles turned out.
