Yea depends where you are in life I guess. Those of us that bid 85 to 90 hr lines and pick up to make a credit of 105 to 115+ sure are feeling it.

Who says I spend what I make?? Whether you spend it or not when you're used to a lot more come in and now it's a lot less it's bothersome as that's not the trend you like to see as you progress in your career. As I said, depends where you are in life.

I admire your optimism and hope that it works out for your guys, but with the fluid nature of the airline business - and especially a Parker led airline business, I would be seeking other alternatives. Back yourself up, and by the time May rolls around, you'll know one way or another. (Maybe)

The CAs retention bonus goes up too if they raise the FOs. It's in the LOA.
