Agree company is using this portion of the contract at their will. What's to prevent them next year saying, "Boo-freaking-hoo, we only made 2.5 BILLION, we need to lower BLGs in order to prevent a furlough"?
We need to stand up to this. I don't think our pilot group has the unity, but, acft specific BLG reduction WILL help our get our attention, it may hurt the company more that it hurts us in that case. People will start paying attention and lose this "It doesn't affect me attitude." I say bring it!
I think STILL a furlough IS NOT IN THE CARDS at this time. They're p!ssed that the seniority list is out for order, and they're p!ssed that it would cost too much to fix it. Also p!ssed that a furlough is too expensive.
