There's lots of reasons why UAL is my #1 legacy, and this thread has only added more...

Endeavor also had plenty 16 hour 4 day trips. Here that would pay no less 21 hours. If it started early on the first day and ended late on the last day it would pay closer to 24 hours due to the 3.5:1 trip rig. A 5 day would pay 26:15, or as much as 32 just based off of the rig in the right scenario. I'm not against the idea of a min day here. I'm against the idea of obtaining a min day at any cost. We need some contractual control of rotation construction whether we get min day or not. But especially if we are going to try and force more credit via either a min day or a substantial improvement in ADG or the rigs IMO.

At the end of the day, the grass is always greener on the other side.

The contract is always in a state of flux when negotiations arise. Sometimes the company utters those words.... sometimes we do. Things like scheduling and trip pairings have a wide latitude of unintended consequences.

Sometimes you get the bear and sometimes the bear gets you. The argument that, " We had that a previious airline" holds no water, because there are way too many variables.

JMHO

I disagree, those of us who have worked elsewhere have a perspective those who have not will never see. Besides it used to be different here too, before the parings got all Gummed up.

Wonder what WB life would be like with the 100 more WB’s and scope. What’s a few thousand more WB positions here and there. There, I can cherry pick too.

Do people flash around their legacy rankings as if it has some sort of meaning on an airline forum? I can't think of any reason why anyone would care what your #1 legacy ranking is and that's all subjective to the person. If you want to go work for united, go to United. Why would you declare this on a Delta forum?

Weirdos probably can't even get a call from Atlas....
