No I will not accept it, I am just saying. In fact I answered this in another thread.

We are currently operating on a contract which in 2003 averted a whipsaw and got us internal scope. We also had nothing larger than a 50 seat jet at the time. From what I understand we have already been to the table on pay scale. Everything has come to impasse of course, I am hoping the pilot group has the back bone to do the right thing. I just hope if we get those payrates I can afford to retire or don't loose my seat when the furloughs hit once someone underbids our pay scales. And that will happen, ask the comair guys how standing up for whats right worked out for them. I wish everyone else would have stood with them. We'd all be in better shape if they had. <side note:I wasn't in the industry at the time.>
