Is PSA officially part of this too?

No deal with PSA MEC as yet

Essentially the same deal has been handed to all 3 WOs. Some finer points of this “deal” may be up for discussion so actual agreements may be hours, days, or weeks away.

Who's first to chase the dollar?

Where the actual ****** is this money coming from? Lol

They aren't allowed to do stock buybacks anymore!

Our taxes! Haha!

$50K biannual, or biennial? Biiiig difference.

If it's biannual, might be worth sticking around for.

Otherwise, better compare $30K+$50k+70K with how much you'll earn if you leave for DAL or FDX two years before flow... and 777 FO is going to new-hires at UAL.

Although it's a certainly a nice deal if you have a GED or several DUIs.

$25k per year for 2 years
