-destroyed the working agreement at any other regional carrier that tried to better their working agreement
-put an end to an era at aloha
-tied up ramp space and hurt other pilots on/in time performance with their (mesa) broken planes
-embarresed and hurt the industry with the unprofessionalism of their pilot group with their dirty uniforms, untucked shirt tails, and scrubby faces.
=need i go on?

its time for respect and you need to tell john o. and your mec that reached this t.a. to go back to the table. myself and thousands of other pilots got in this industry to make money and get the respect we have earned. although not everyone has to be that way....at least act like it. things are tough now...but no one else in the industry is saying, 'well maybe next time around we can do better" everyone is fed up so join the rest of us and help out and gain some respect.
