Overnite, you are correct. This thread was a bad idea on my part. Apologies to all. I had good intentions but this forum is the wrong avenue. If the Mods can kill the thread, please do. If not, can we all just let it die a natural death.

We can yuck it up at the Zoo event. :D

And yep, I bought a hat too!

Anyone have a link to the uniform store so I can order my hat?

Thanks. I thought maybe I could order online.

You sort of can, print the order sheet and fax it. Think 90s.

Skype them. 21st Century.

My thoughts are that this message comes very close to direct negotiations with the crew force.

I am forced to look at this drivel before I can see my flight release.

Even if I do not click on it, I can see the title and know the subject matter.

I do not want to read any drivel from the SCP. I just want to fly my trip safely.

My Negotiating Committee speaks for me, and they will hear that I do not appreciate being told about how greedy I am before I go fly a revenue trip.

REVENUE. Meaning it makes money for the company. How many of these messages must I hear from people in NON-REVENUE positions?

Either turn a wheel, or I will tune you out.

Just some quick math on Cassel's numbers. Over 5 years $3.5B in cost over 5 years comes out to roughly $166k per year per pilot! So I think he needs to speak with his negotiating team and get some new numbers.
