Listen, i agree, i would love to see a union. But i am not a fool either, the unions today, represent the big boys. Not the regional guys. They surve a purpose at the majors. But at the regionals, not so much.
Having a union at a regional might not prevent market forces from taking effect. But not having a union guarantees you no protection.

Do you work for OO? Or do you go by what you think you know?
Give me examples of what you think you mean by no protection.

But since Skywest can do no harm, they never have to.
Cue the kool aid.

So we done with the life insurance sales pitch yet? I’m actually curious on YX.

PBS is whatever, works well for senior folks, at least we have some flexibility with 1,2,3,4 day trips, no 5 day trips. 9e only has 4 and 5 day trips (very surprising) and they can’t drop anything. Saying you can’t drop anything at OO is completely false, I just recently dropped a trip, it depends on your domicile. I can drop whatever the hell I want out of MSP, probably not the same case for DEN.

When they pay 4 times the regional hourly rate, I think I will be ok with that.

How are you enjoying those 2-3 days off between your trips?
