Well hopefully in future contracts the younger guys coming on board will realize how stupid the current pay scheme is and get it changed.

You'd think with the future increase in training events, the company will bring it up next time around.

The Southwest pilots will never get a deal after they called for their CEO to step down.

They did not get anywhere near the deal you assured us they would get.

Again if we accepted their agreement in whole we would need over 8000 more pilots and average 4 days more off per month domestic and have a higher w-2.

When those negotiating on both sides finally figure out it is about 28 sections of the contract, not just a few tables in section 3, we will get somewhere. Until then it's just moving the deck chairs around.

Basically you can discredit anything gzsg says. I don't think one of his predictions has come true. How about the company coming crawling back to us within 48 hours after we turned down the TA? Or how about this gem made a few weeks ago when he stated we would have a deal soon because SWA is going to get $300 an hour for the 737. Yeah right.
