It's guys like you that back companies like GoJet, that abuse professional pilots. It's time to take back our industry that EACH and EVERY one of us worked hard at to join. It's time we bring back the days of Jimmy Hoffa (minus the violence and mafia involvement) and have the muscle of a union against the whip of management. Let's stop management from dancing on our contracts and Railway Labor Act. We're much better than this. MUCH BETTER!
No one is flying an 320 at regional wages. No one said they would be happy to do so either. I understand you're trying to make a point, but at least use an actual experience rather than making up a blatant lie.
To the point of this thread, one list is absolutely necessary. It looks like a few are naive enough to think management won't play the whipsaw game to save a dollar. Lets pretend for a minute that the current skywest management team wouldn't, what happens when the next group comes in? Its extremely shortsighted to oppose integration because you're happy with things right now.
