84 percent of SWA pilots are suckers. 38 percent have no self worth whatsoever at SWA .

SAV will fail.

Why? Because the arrogance, hubris, and ignorance that we blast management for is reflected in mirror image with this pilot group.

SWA pilots as a whole are arrogant, hubris, and ignorant.

We have a long ways to go, indeed.

This!! The union will not take a strike vote without 90+% participation and 90+% vote for a yes!!!! It’s going to take an education campaign first. Just like when the tranny guys crossed over and guys didn’t want a B fund. I had one cappy tell me “yes it’s a good thing you guys got our 401k and go rid of that B fund.”

Remember the union has the data on the polls. They would not do a SAV unless they thought it would benefit them. Latest email from base reps said SAV to happen soon. Even guys who I flown with who say we will never be allowed to strike, wrong, still will vote to strike. Just gotta get enough to say it passed. Then let the media do the rest. The mob is stupid. All you have to do is control the mob and you control Congress
