. I have my reasons for doing this job and pay and lack of qualifications to other jobs are not part of it. :p |

And you doubt because you don't think there is a way a pilot could have a personality other than yours. Im cool, im calm, thats just how i chat my effin chat. There has been no debate, just put downs so what do you want?
I have GOT to remember that line. (This must be the young kid's version of Stuart Smalley's "I'm good enough. I'm smart enough, and Gosh-darnit, people like me!") Wow...I remember when I had my first beer... |

Guys seriously cut him a break....its a public forum for God's Sake.....I would imagine that when the time is right, everything will be posted in a professional and gramatically correct manor.
I absolutely believe that something needs to be done. I also think there are quite a few people that are content with their current quality of life and dont wanna make waves. I DO NOT think that waging a sickout will have Airline Big Wigs calling on the thousands of furloughed pilots to help save the day....thats just ignorant. A sickout would only be for a few days. The airlines couldnt possibly bring guys through crash courses on their FOM's/FCM's and then check them out in a few days time. I think something like this would be a wakeup call....Readytogo makes a good point...back in the day if the Teamsters Milk Truck Drivers in NY were ****ed about something EVERYONE STRUCK. IMHO ALPA can't work as an they should because we are not unified...too many Non-Union's and In-House Unions out there. Not to mention this absurd piece of Paper (RLA) from the 1930's has a lot to do with it as well. You guys realize that some of the best places to work in this industry are Non-ALPA right ?? Southwest, Jetblue, UPS, American, SkyWest??? I know a lot of you are content but I sure as hell didnt come into this industry planning to make crap money my entire life.....I was willing to do it my first year because I knew it would get better...now here I am starting year 4 salary FO...still making crap money....no upgrade in sight and I have one of the BEST contracts in the Industry. Did most of you guys come into this Industry saying "Man...250K a year to be an Airline Captain would be awesome...but then again 40-80K isnt so bad either, i'll settle for that." I know I didnt. ReadyToGo you have my support |
"gramatically correct manor"
Perfect!!! |

Its BS! The only reason why you're still doing it now is because its a job that pays.One of the few around , and unlike a few years ago, you cant just 'go somewhere else'. Something has to be done now.I have a few good ideas. Im not soliciting my own website/ im not advertising an illegal job action. All im saying is i plan on doing something about it. I cant recieve pm's just yet, and i probably wont be able to post my email. But know im planning something BIG!A movement that will change this for all pilots future past and present. hahahaha, its all about big money and jamming 100 dollar bills down senators underpants. good luck bra... |
Mom Note:
Johnny Carson/Carnac: May your only son become the goalie on a nude hockey team. Thread closed. I haven't seen a thread so filled with effen flamebait, effen name calling, effen grammatical errors, and a whole host of other effen TOS violations. Another gentle reminder - do not use APC to organize or incite anything that can be construed as a job action. |
