Thanks! But as you can see even the no voters will be labeled.

That's unfortunate. There really should be a list of guys who stand up for better work conditions, or lack thereof, as was the case with scabs back in the day. There should be a new label for these guys who cower down to management and a list made. People need to be held accountable somehow.

Well, I've witnessed my first PSA jumpseater denied out of BNA. Oh well, I guess.

Doesn't matter to me your all done in my book. More then likely i'll never see any of you but it makes me feel better knowing im doing my part to better this industry.

My advice to you is walk away from this company other good companies are hiring and you would be welcomed

You think most of us haven't been applying to better places long before this ta was even crafted by management? The tricky part is getting a call. If your advice is walk away from 7 years longevity and come be a year 1 fo at xjt, then thats advice you wouldnt follow and you know it.

All airlines have shifted fleet types. SkyWest used to fly nothing but Metroliners. Now they are all gone and our pay scales went up with the addition of Brazilias and now Rjs. They didn't have to reduce the caps on pay rates to 4 and 12 years. They didn't have to raise the health care costs of their employees to do so.

While Inc. is a well-run company and I have nothing against Skywest pilots...

Skywest pilots were the first to fly 70 seat jets for 50 seat pay.

Skywest forced their pilots into a HDHP, while ASA/XJT pilots were not due to their CBAs.

Skywest pilots got their biggest raises over the last decade when union talk was strongest, or following contractual gains at peer groups like ASA.

Your company has grown significantly, but its not been in a vacuum...

Publish a list of "yes" voters then... Congress votes and their vote is displayed for all to see....

Okay, you do understand that you can't vote your first year right? We have lots of new hires.

ding ding ding!!!! all this BS about unity and taking one for the team, until it affect THEM! Yes XJT pilot, how bout showing real unity and letting any PSA/Pinnacle person that quits and gets hired at XJT keep his longevity and seniority? And you do realize, even your almighty ExpressJet would have been considered a bottom feeder at one time.....ask me I worked there.
