I agree. As someone pointed out these same people (including me) that started 20 years ago came to SkyWest with the assumption of making 60k a year max flying a turbo prop... Most these guys are making 160k a year+... they need to factor that into there math... i get it. We all lost 10 years of “career progression” after 9/11. Now there looking at retirement in 10-15 years as they look at there 401k and need to save.. And most don’t want to start over at a major...As for the newhires. They don’t vote off education on the TA. They vote off what social media says they should vote...
I think the majority of new hires have/are going to vote base on anything that gives them more $$ for the short time period that they assume they'll be with the company. In the current climate, a bunch of them aren't planning on being with there for the next 20 years.
That outlook means nothing.

Seriously? Never made close to "$160,000.00 a year +"!
Are you a management troll, or just drowning in Kool-aid?

119 to 123 is a 3.3% increase.
So now that I’ve gotten you angry and your math is wrong, what did you think was going to happen in regard to inflation when you got to year 21 on a 20 year pay scale as you spent those two decades climbing it? You wanna talk smarts?
Did you have these current bonuses, work rules, qol & 401k in 2001? Total comp for a 20 year guy is on pace with YOUR provided numbers.
Haha

WRONG!
$113.21 to $116 is a whopping $2.79 or 2.47%, less than the current 2.9% rate of inflation. So, actually going backwards(#math is hard)!

Currently you are being paid 112.09$ with ta offering 116$ 3.5% real money.
And when inflation was recently flat you would have said??
That 1% you are already counting is fine but the fact is you won’t see $116 until 2022. It’s 2018. Do a little hard math and get back to me.

Now if I compare myself to my counterparts at mainline, of course it’s easy to find shortcomings at the regional level. Or I could choose to make the best of my current situation, work hard, and maximize the rules available to me. Another thing available is spend the extra time trying to get out.

I’m a 10 year CA making over 160k, and that’s not hard to do with seniority. I don’t do 4 days, and my family and I take several vacations per year.
