Great lesson to teach the guys when they are new. It will come in handy when they are WB captains with wife number 3.
Double new hire pay and make 1st year pay 75% of 2nd year pay. Minimum wage 1st year pay is one ALPA right of Passage that can go the way of the Age 60 rule.
Gee Lag, you are generous. 75% of second year pay is just over $2 less than current 1st year pay. Maybe you were eliminating the S/O scale? I also think you would have a hard time convincing people that 60k is minimum wage
