lol. That’s a good one. Try new hire pay and whatever those guys get for sick/vacation. Doubt you’ll see many people coming back for that. You all got scammed.

More like $60k and 0 401k DC, 0 days of vacation first year, 7 days your second year.

Lets face it, no legacy would every touch a retired LEPF. Why would they?

But keep sending them money! It'll happen soon!

Lol what?

If this is what LEPF is selling, you all are dumber than I thought.

I would hope the union makes them start over on year one pay. There's no point in wasting negotiating capital on these geriatrics.

Sliceback is pushing 70 years old. He’s this forum’s AA version of SailingFun. Well meaning mostly, but often out dated. Take it with a grain of salt.

More like 80K your first year, no vacation, and commuting to LGA sitting SCR in a Crashpad 18 to 19 days a month. But you guys get to pass on your "experienced pilots" expertise.

Whoa. I’d just as soon sit shotgun on a Humvee at the Russian front.
