One word for you, dude, SCOPE!

Protect your job with scope and then you won't find yourself *****in' cause someone else "took ur jubs!"

I'm never happy when any regional, mine included, gets new flying at the expense of a mainline. But, I can't stop it from happening. You guys at mainline can. Quit pointing the finger at us, take a look in the mirror, and SMACK yourself for not getting scope to prevent this in past contracts. Now, step up to the table at the next negotiations and learn from past mistakes!

Nothing would make me happier than to have to wait till I got a job at mainline to fly a 170 or 190 at mainline wages/benefits. Stop the snide posts that make it out like whats happening is our fault.

STOP! I agree with what you are saying, but lets be fair. Nothing would make you happier than to fly a CRJ700, CRJ900, or a 170/190 at mainline wages/benefits....

This is a problem at the entire regional level... Not just at RAH or Compass

Why didn't I think of that!!! 50 seaters were given up without my vote. 70 seaters were given to us with a bankruptcy gun to our head, genius. Nevermind, just enjoy those regional wages. Who is hiring right now?
