Your type is the exact reason why Alaska airlines pilots will only ever get an at best “decent contract” that falls waaaaaay short of any other major or legacy airline. You all have accepted mediocrity and below for so long that the company will never dare give you a centimeter above “decent.” Pretty embarrassing

Decent equipment, decent health insurance, a good pension and ok money. Take good care of the bosses equipment and act like a grown up at work.
