Why work for the lowest hourly, lowest 401k contributor & some of the worst schedules?

If I’m gonna be on the road away from my comfort zone, family & hobbies then I’m gonna get paid for it.

Alaska Airlines used to be a respectful place.
I wouldn’t say it is anymore.

It used to be there were various discussions here of all things and aspects. Now? This forum is full
of complaining and POed people. Lowest 401K? We’re 15.5%. While not as high as the 16% at the big 3, it isn’t exactly the lowest in the industry. It’s sad now that this forum has boiled down to just complaining by the same crowd of people who are POed at Alaska but either won’t leave or can’t leave. Misery loves company here on APC.

I’m confused by your constant pandering to the company, obfuscation of facts and personal attacks toward those who don’t see things your way.

Sincerely: why do you do this? What is the goal?

Nothing upsets dumb people more than fancy words.

You can always tell when you've beaten ShyGuy on debate points. His last resort is always some variation of "U Mad, bro?"

It’s not much of a challenge. I was only asking him why he constantly does the above 3 things because I’m curious and in a way hopeful if there is some strategy that is in play.

I asked for a hotel room 3 times for my 4+ hour sit this week. On the 3rd try crew scheduling finally begrudgingly gave me a room and the captain too. He never even tried calling and didn’t use the room during our 4 hour sit.
