Lol. You are funny.

So. What's the problem with that? If you don't like it, pay it back.

Let me guess. You think that bonuses are taxed at a higher rate?

Bonus taxes are withheld at a higher rate. If you leave, you pay back the check, plus the taxes and get issued an amended w2. Some genius figured it'll help with retention, genius, due to pilots not being able/willing to pay back 20k with the 9.5-13k (depending on the state) check they received.

Withheld, but not taxed. You get a nice chunk of it back next time you file your taxes.

The end result is +/- 0, you just have to make up the difference if you leave between tax day and when you cash the check. With a 12 month payment plan, you're not even out of pocket. Makes no sense not to take it.

That flow isnt guaranteed bud. Read the actual agreement. Not saying it’s not gonna happen but don’t be so sure of it or rely on it.

80 hours a month is a good thing. But when you’re in contact with Crew Scheduling for every flight nearly and not making it home on your last day. Coming in the night before etc, not so much. You won’t have a line for years

I personally talked to some union reps in ORD and they said it’s been discussed but basically don’t expect it any time soon. ALPA and Envoy are in bed together. I’ve seen it first hand. Wasn’t pretty

Got to love open ended statements. How are they in bed together? Please share details or examples of what you consider “in bed together.”

It’s easy to point fingers, assume, and get others to follow along with finger pointing and assumptions.

Seriously....just look at the past few years and how the union keeps offering band aids to the company to help them fix their inadequacy and problems. While not fighting to get long term industry leading improvements.
They never hold the company accountable for their daily violations of our contract, with minimal communication to the pilot group.

I can keep going on and on but what is the point.
