I also wouldn't give two sh*ts if you're paid in peanuts or soybeans. My problem is that pattern bargaining affects us all, and you are agreeing to:

1) Take a pay cut instead of getting a pay raise given the inflation rates.

2) You're promoting the company dragging their feet in future negotiations by not insisting on full retro. In fact, you're financially rewarding them for dragging their feet.

And in doing all that, especially in this pilot market, you're making our NC's job of securing an industry-leading contract that much tougher.

You're worth more... now if you could only actually believe it, everyone would be better off.

Oh yeah, thanks for that, it’s actually slightly different then you imply, but of course you already know that. Your a big shot SWA pilot now and you let everyone know, every day! Pretty comical, a couple of SWA bubbas grandstanding, arguing about size in another airlines anonymous web board, really. Why are you and RJ still here again🤔, your here to talk about our TA? Like an airline you don’t work for… rates, retro, scope that you will never work under and your still here talking about size. Seriously, do you two know how to read a room? Both of you are like two dudes at a black tie event wearing boat shoes, black socks pulled up to your knees, paired with cargo shorts. Are you two seriously still here? Ask yourselves, who asked for your opinions, what qualifies either of you as experts on anything, especially with regard to another carriers contract.
You two want to help the AS pilot group about as much as a used car salesman wants to help a 19 year old buying her first car. Get lost!
Hey, and when two you leave could you grab “brown easy no” by the arm and walk him out too. He has been lost, for sometime, roaming our halls “thinking”😂, seriously I think he might need help, he is real Delta, hired not acquired. Yes, you three will get along great. Thanks in advance, that’s a real solid, he has great ideas, just like you two.
