If it does come to a strike vote with our next contract--I will not hesitate to walk out. Unfortunately, we have a sizeable group of senior captains here (making a little over or around 100K), that I think will not compromise their income with a strike vote.
I may be an FO making a pathetic wage here, but I won't hesitate for a second to strike in hopes of improving this profession for future generations. If it is not JetBlue or better (which is unlikely), I will vote it down in a heartbeat. I have nothing to lose.
I hate what this company has done with Midwest. Those pilots have every reason to be ****ed off. If i were them it would take a lot of restraint not to smart off to our crewmembers when they see us. Management uses us as a disposable source of labor and while it will never completely stop, we cant sell each other down the river.
Sorry to get off the original topic here...
