The airline was not created to bust a union, the seniority list was. Even then TSA pilots created that separate list, at least allowed it to happen when they knew their contract was not worth the paper it was printed on. This is nothing like Freedom, because freedom was illegal. The pilots at Gojet are not replacing TSA because TSA pilots never had the job to begin with. Again ALPA is sending their furloughed to this alter ego, how can that be?

We are all we have, and each of us - from B1900 drivers to B777 systems managers - need to look out for eachother since nobody else will.


I'm all for that. However, short of being a scab, if you think that a pilot won't take his or her interests before anyone else when it comes to his livelihood then you are living in a different planet.

If it comes down to putting food on your table any job with benefits will do nobody will fault you for taking whatever you can get. Just keep in mind that for what places like GoJet pay you could make the same money at Home Depot and be home everyday.

What are you talking about? How can you get a job at a major with customer service experience at Home Deopt?


However, with other places hiring again, and the newspapers full of other minimum wage jobs - and the occasional good job - there is NO reason at all to go to a place like GoJets.

Easy for you to say when you have not walked in the others shoes. It's so much easier to preach.
