Our continued loyalty and goodwill, which, unfortunately, they don't value.
They have gotten plenty out of us in the last 3 contracts. It is about time we started being treated as valued employees.
Remember the tax break? Bonuses for management, increased pay for hourly workers, except pilots. Nothing for pilots.
The Exec that said they would recoup the money from the last contract in 6 months due to work efficiency was correct.

Fall 2015, TA was being debated, Co was short staffed on pilots. If ever we were to draw/checkmate, it was then. Deficiencies in Sec 28 were obvious. TA passed anyway. MEC is not the only one to blame. Membership approved it.
3 yrs removed, Co is not in that situation and we have less leverage than we did in ‘15. What is the catalyst that will bring A Fund (or any Sec 28) improvements ?
There’s much talk of pancakes maybe being up, maybe down. Add A Fund being down every yr w/o fail to the list with death and taxes.

So, basically, the only way for us to put pressure on the company is for them to screw up their staffing again...hmmm...great strategy. How about we draw a line in the sand? How about we go to whatever lengths possible and legal to negotiate what we think is fair? I think we can, I think we can become a unified group, and yes, it can be as simple as 3 and 50, (3% and 50k)every contract...that's basically cost of living, cost of doing business, no give backs. In other words, fair.

The catalyst will be a pilot shortage. It’ll hit cargo airlines before passenger airlines.

Most people haven’t realized the best job in aviation could be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog $hit out of Hong Kong.
