Of course they'd like to not pay us 100% for not working. They'd also like to pay us RJ rates and have us all on 24/7 reserve if they could. I have ZERO sympathy for their position after the shenanigans they've been playing recently. And we tried to give them student lines for what??? Pay rates well behind the rest of the industry? A retirement that was going to be the only one recently negotiated that was still bound by IRS limits? Company takes advantage of every contractual opportunity they can. I have no problem with pilots doing the same. Oh FYI I've never had a line with a check airman so take your work ethic BS elsewhere.Originally Posted by vc931
I agree that student lines are a bit of a concession. But can you see how getting paid 100% for not working can bother the company a bit. One of managements main focuses in this negotiation is to not pay guys for not working. Maybe not working contributes to your screen name MediocrePilot.
