......or gate agents, FA's, rampers, dispatchers, Mx professionals, and the list keeps going and going.

Q's? ..... Do you sell the tickets? Set prices? Design and approve the marketing campaigns? Determine which markets to target or back off of? Decide on what types of drinks or food to sell? Etc?

No, you just move passengers and you have no control over the revenue your airline directly generates off those passengers. You can affect your airlines future revenue by how well you treat your current passengers (who you had no control over or input into bringing in) but then again gate agents and FA's have more direct contact with our revenue than we do. And yes you can affect the bottom line by how well you operate your a/c but that's about it.

We are labor and we are replaceable.
