the bottom has been chasing me pretty quick. 5.5 years doesnt buy you much. I will look it up at some point.

In jan 13 i was around the 81% in July i went to around 85% and this month 85%

Another guy with a crystal ball, or are you management?

...........yaaaaaawwwn!!! All you did was repost what 5 other over opinionated guys said many threads ago.... We all know... 80% pinnacle guys sold out the rest of the contract pilot industry... Despite holding the line for over 6 years, voting down numerous BS offers from management during contract negotiations, and bankruptcy. In the midst of certain shutdown.....we thought of our families, instead of Johnny backpack over at xpressjet, who lives in dads basement... Selfish bastards we are..... Back to your dungeon and dragons.

If you were truly thinking of your family you would have a backup plan to aviation in case your airline shut down. I'm sick of hearing the bs i have a family excuse. You all know what you signed up for. The other day at a bar I randomly met an ex NWA mechanic who walked the line with his comrades. He sacrificed his entire job because he refused to the working conditions they were offering (while having a family to support). Anyways I had tremendous respect for the guy and bought him a beer.

I hope this stop the whipsaw movement continues to gain momentum. If I ever meet a 15% voter from 9E, beer is on me.

They all say they are a 15% person. So I like the odds better to say they voted yes and are lying. You are 15% wrong then.

The ONLY reason Pinnacle and ANY regional exists is due to all the majors giving up their scope period! Pinnacle taking a stand or standing there ground would have done nothing and meant nothing overall in the regional industry. The only way to really stop the downward trend is for the major pilots and or ALPA/APA to get out of bed with their managements and stop the whipsawing among the regionals, but I doubt that will ever happen since scope and greed is the reason the regionals exist anyway. One regional making a stand will do very little. How long did Com Air last?

Who is the 'we'? I am part of that group. While you were busying thinking about tomorrow I was looking down the road 5 years from now. You didn't do yourself or anyone else in this industry any favors. You know how management likes to trip over dollar bills to save pennies? You did the same think with your 6K bonus check.

Well when the day comes you start supporting your own family and you pop your moms titty out your mouth, you will understand where the 85% are coming from. Till then, go ask your parents to give you "the talk"

This is pathetic. I would expect something a little more mature from someone who is supposedly raising a family.
