Guess pinnacle pilots are either selling themselves short (and the rest of us) or they aren't worth a livable wage.
And that's the top of the scale. What a disgrace!

So if you want sympathy from me it is somewhere between ******* and syphilis in the dictionary.

You would quit and make a lateral move to another regional for less pay and stick it to the man? Nah, probably not unless you're stupid...
You would quit and collect unemployment to stick it to the man, because that would really show Richard Anderson what a tough guy you are???
And said actions would do wonders for the rest of the industry because you would have held the bar at a defunct airline. Also, that would leave no other airline for you to whipsawed against. oh, wait...

Actually I would most likely be one of those furloughed or downgraded. Neither choice is appealing. Personally I would rather see the company shut down than be able to continue the mismanagement. There are plenty of flying jobs out there. Many starting above the top F/O scale. There was no reason to vote yes other than being too lazy and scared to find a better job.

Lol, all these Skywest pilots crying because someone else voted them a pay cut in the future.
If you had a union maybe you would have a vote in all this.
Next up to bat ExpressJet!
Good luck guys, hope they use a little lube on you guys, at least y'all can vote no if you want.
