This doesn't only affect regionals as some have said. If mainlines can get regionals to fly 900s and 170s for peanuts then you'll see more mainline shrinkage and regional growth. Realize if you vote yes on this your laughable "preferential interview" won't mean dick because the mainlines will be too busy downsizing to hire you. Everyone needs to look at the big picture here, higher costs at regionals = more mainline jobs = more of us get out of this crap.

Perhaps this needs to be impressed upon National, who has a signature on Endeavor's BK contract. If National keeps allowing this to happen... Well you know they don't defend scope.

let them go to SKW and EJT amd RAH and get the concessiosn. They cant, why because mainline does not own them or there management. These other companies have a board and stock holders to answer to whereas PSA, PDT, Pinnacle and Eagle dont, they are mainline owned. So if they wnat concession go to a non mainline owned regional and get your concessions first, if you can.

For example psa guys, this preferential hiring agreement is actaully worse than the one we have now. They already take 4 of our guys per month, only in this agreement, they can pay freeze you if you forget to apply, or if you fail your interview. And of course, with this agreement psa can hold you for staffing purposes. They have done it before in 2008. They held those guys indefinitely.
If you haven't worked here then stop telling us about our airline. The fact that some guys have been constantly screwed here ISN'T THEIR FAULT. Horrible timing the last 12 years in this industry IMO. Just one event after another to worsen things.
