YOU ARE NOT AN AMAZON PRIME AIR PILOT. Stop telling that to your friends and family, it doesnt make you any cooler. Are you putting that on your resume? I would love to see how that PRIA request gets processed. Hopefully your local Amazon wharehouse hires you to sweep the floor when Amazon stops contracting with ATSG

Maybe thats true but i’d rather be a bathtoom attendant at a strip club than work for ATI. Loser company full of loser pilots. What do you get off? 13 days a month? How much does a 2 yr cpt make? You guys sold your soul to the devil and many people in the industry wont forget it. You guys undercut the only decent acmi carrier (until k4 got a contract) and you will always be a trash pilot group who cares more about Amazon bag tags than self respect. Suck ATI you sell outs
Knock yourself out in that strip club - maybe catch a raging case of sherpes.
No, we don't get 13 days off a month. Many of us get 13 out of 28 days off. A lot of us get 14 out of 28. Sucks, don't it?
How much does 2 yr cpt make? About $1000 less than your 20 yr FO, without whoring out or getting a single dollar of soft money. Our last upgrade announcement included a 2yr1mo loser pilot as the most junior selectee. When he finishes training, he'll be making about $30k more than your 20 yr FO. That sucks.
Thanks to your generous sharing, I've now seen one of these bag tags.
I'm not suggesting you go cold turkey, as I could only imagine how difficult that might be. But perhaps cut back a little on the size of the bowls of phalluses you've apparently been eating for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day? Your friends (if you have any...) will probably appreciate it, too.

I see I missed addressing a few of your points:
"You guys sold your soul to the devil and many people in the industry wont forget it." OK, so there are many people out there who won't forget it. But the VAST majority doesn't even care.
"You guys undercut the only decent acmi carrier (until k4 got a contract)"
Interesting that K4 is now a decent acmi carrier, thanks to their contract. Ours is very much on par with theirs. In some ways a little better, in some ways not so much. But we're the devil now. The only place ATI is as bad as you think is inside your cavernous and very thickly walled skull. Why is ABX even an ACMI carrier now? Because they (not you, any more, apparently) have about as much control over all of this as we do. ZIP.
I'll make you a deal. Since you're apparently as much of a scab as I am, then I'll stop killing puppies, stealing purses from helpless old ladies, and frightening children as soon as you do.
In the meantime, I'm going to go enjoy a nice, healthy breakfast. One that I'm guessing won't leave as much of a bitter taste as yours has.

ABX 1224 sold their soul with a concessionary contract so as to continue to suck at the DHL teet. Then the “nifty 50” continued to crap on their own furloughed pilots by gorging themselves on as much open time as they could legally (maybe) grab. They are so filled with hate and self loathing, that they can’t help but project it on to others because, well....”it has to be someone else’s fault”. It’s all ATI’s fault for not giving in to 1224’s hostile demands that we bend over for a SCC, and give, GIVE, up our home basing. It’s all ATI’s fault that we didn’t cave into your EXCO’s threat, and I quote, “we will scope you out of existence. You’ll be nothing more than a four airplane Combi airline”.
At the end of the day, you can hate all want on ATI, but it all comes down to this. The only folks to blame for the predicament y’all are in is yourselves.

A strikebreaker (sometimes derogatorily called a scab, blackleg, or knobstick) is a person who works despite an ongoing strike. Strikebreakers are usually individuals who were not employed by the company prior to the trade union dispute, but rather hired after or during the strike to keep the organization running. "Strikebreakers" may also refer to workers (union members or not) who cross picket lines to work.
Aka Wikipedia 🙄
a : a contemptible person
b (1) : a worker who refuses to join a labor union (2) : a union member who refuses to strike or returns to work before a strike has ended (3) : a worker who accepts employment or replaces a union worker during a strike (4) : one who works for less than union wages or on nonunion terms / dictionary Merrian-Webster
