From: A320 FO
This might be true but I'd still take American over WN or any LCC or ACMI. In your 20s? Probably Delta or United is a better bet for stability. 40+ American probably still has the most rapid seniority accrual in the first 5 years (giving the choice between decent FO line holder or super junior NB CA). WB is a wild card but I fear it will stay a small percentage of the fleet and FO will take a long time and CA is probably impossible.

Sick time to start. Also, how about all those areas of the contract that were only added after United announced their TA and APA had to quickly play catch up and pretend they did the work knowing full well they got us the bare minimum because “the company said no”. The amount of senior pilots I flew with that never read our TA was astounding. Many still don’t know the contract. I remember Ed sounding like a bumbling goon on town halls. Hotel language was another one Ed brushed off. Check out where we stay in RSW and then ask your United buddies where they stay. I guarantee it’s not in a shopping center or next to the highway.

Gains? Sure, a bit. Im glad new hires dont have to deal with the 0 sick for 6 months crap like before. ESB is a major gain IMO too.
However, only 60 hrs/yr is garbage. Not having a way to get back sick, ala sick day 1, but well by day 2 but too bad, you burn 3 days worth of sick. Why not have an option to get your 10.30 of sick back via a self-repair/RO/LC type situation is also garbage. If not? Ok, fine, charge the full amount of sick.

Seriously though...that has got to be one of the worst-planned commercial developments I've seen. Hotels and furniture stores are about as far apart as you can get on the spectrum of complementary businesses.

I can't believe anyone complains about the RSW hotel. I always catch up on my furniture shopping when there.

And if it were just RSW… I stayed in better hotels at the regionals. It’s honestly embarrassing.
