Bob made it clear that we are on one tier, Jet Blue is above us, and then there are the Legacy carriers above them.
I do believe we are still on a higher tier than freshly minted CFI's and some pt 135 C210 cargo operators, operating between 0200-0500 EDT.

Perhaps you have a comprehension issue on this one. "Cost," as it relates to the price of a ticket, not compensation. SWA proudly calls themselves a "Low Cost Airline," so I assume their employees (some of the highest all around in the industry) should take a lesser wage, simply because of the "low cost" in their business model.
Irony can be defined as an ex-Eastern pilot, like yourself, who struck in the 80s because Lorenzo felt your pilots were worth less than nothing, telling pilots today they should accept low wages because management says they are "low tier" for their ULCC airline. Sounds like something ol Frank Loreanzo would make a case for.

Either way, GF gets a "High Five".
Sadly, I'm about four short. Hope it'll do.

Take a look at that earnings call and see how many millions this place wastes in mismanagement. Remember the meltdown last June? That cost $20 mil alone. They can afford to pay us what we are worth.
In the meantime continue to call daily. I'm not picking up. Go find someone else to clean up your mess. And if you can't maybe this airlines prayers will get answered and Jyri and Bendo will be shown the door
