Let me guess, riddle grad?

How’d you guess!? I chose PSA because the 900 is so nice.

No, because you think the 200 is sporty!

LOL, yeah I believe this. We know PDT doesn't fall in this boat. Sadly, your WO colleagues tend to.. since y'all wear the same wings and uniforms, it's hard to tell apart. My apologies, I should've clarified.

Do you guys ever wonder what not picking up any premium may have done to the company when they were so short staffed? Maybe you would have that pay raise by now. Instead a handful of you helped the company put band aids on the situation instead of fixing the root problem.

Who are referring to, PSA or Piedmont? If what you are suggesting is organized in any manner, it would be considered an illegal job action. PSA's pilot group was threatened with a lawsuit recently for a joking comment made on social media. So your idea would pretty much be futile.

I would however like to have seen them apply that lawsuit, the financial penalty applied to each pilot on property and any future pilot would have killed recruiting, and accelerated attrition. They would have shot themselves in the foot, and probably killed the airline by their own hand.

Unfortunately, many people have families, student loans, illness, debt and desires.. if someone wants to ***** themself out whatever.... it's their business. That being said we all have a price to suck a banana...

Right now every piedmont pilot is taking it up the kuester in the name of a flow...

Until there is attrition at pdt there will never be a pay raise.. I also believe our next contract negotiations will occur during the next recession and therefore don't expect much.

Sporty like a 1996 Toyota Tercel

Man, I wish some of these topics you bring up would’ve been disussed prior to your arrival at piedmont. Ground breaking ideas, I tell ya. You should volunteer at the union, def have a lot of insight about how things should be done with all of your regional experience.
