I, as many here, are not parties to it, but have read the award and do see windfalls that your group got. I can only imagine the wailing that would come from you were the roles reversed.

Finally...please get this through your head. YOU and the West pilots DID NOT buy East. Your company did. You, like the rest of us, are nothing more than a blue collar worker in a white shirt.

And those of us who have been around the barn for awhile remember how West got started and it's woes over the years. So please spare us the halo.
