They don't care which pilot gets paid -- we do. They don't care about deal making -- we do. They don't care about CS hold times. Maybe they care about sick calls, but that data won't be available for probably another bid period or two. Even then, the data will show that those trips will get covered by deal makers. Prove me wrong. A5S |

I get people are angry but a little patience here would have worked in our favor long term. Fix it in contract negotiations not via an MOU. We could have leveraged this for a massive long term win. Now the company already has the fix.

If QS increases their usage of 3x pay, great, even more cost leverage. We have increased leverage because now we can patiently sit and wait through excessive 3x payouts without pilots being harmed. Did you really want to go into section 6 with pilots infighting and blaming each other? The facebook posts, and some here, were getting ridiculous (and desperately concessionary). |

An MOU which altered the PWA AND bypassed MEMRAT, nonetheless.

Should it have gone to MEMRAT? Absolutely. Additionally, there should be no more LOAs or MOUs, for any reason, between now and our next contract signing. |

Beats your suggestion of auctioning flying to the lowest bidder.

3500 is junior in a lot of categories. For the first two weeks of the month, every IA in my category was awarded junior to the median seniority pilot..
Now that it’s later in the month and the junior pilots have had their fill, there have been a handful awarded just barely above the median. |

Could you give an example? It's either top 20% WBB or top half NBA in the dozen I've looked at.
