The Big Picture
In another thread a pilot said the Envoy/Piedmont rates were nothing but a trick to hold them in place until the die. He said we need to see the “entire picture.”
I agree. When we view the TA (if there is a TA approved by the UAL MEC) view the hourly raises with the facts about the United States government printing $16 Trillion dollars in the past 24 months. Quadrupling our money supply. This fact is so staggering I can’t begin to understand the ramifications. No one can. We are in uncharted territory. In my opinion, raises we are used to like 4% or 5% are meaningless. A grain of sand on the beach. Take the time to read and learn before you buy what is headed your way. It will define your career and our profession. To understand the magnitude of the Fed’s money printing, we need to go back 22 months ago. At the start of 2020, there was $4.0192 trillion in circulation. On January 4, 2021, the number increased to $6.7 trillion dollars. Then the Fed went into overdrive. By October 2021, that number climbed to $20.0831 trillion dollars in circulation. |
Why don't you post this on your delta forum? A large majority of us understand the situation. We also understand the importance of not letting rumors run rampant and looking at the TA in its entirety including the sections that bring value outside of the pay rate. You don't understand our current contract or what is important to us and yet you are here on another pilot groups board fanning the flames on pure speculation and negativity.

Or I have to roll thunder to make ends meet. I want to work 50 hours a month and have a nice life style. So we’ll see what is in the TA but CH 3 will be the last chapter I look at. |
Pay isn't important. Your spouse can always work more and replace that income. Daycare is cheap and children need hardening anyway. QOL has no substitute.
