Fixed it for you.

The "a little raise is fine as long as we keep our amazing work rukes" crowd needs to be beaten with a sock full of quarters. I wanted to bang my head against the wall during one or two of those call ins.

We need pbs like we need a raging case of the Herps. With PBS we will lose days off for transition AND will lose days off accrued from touching vacation days. Those days do add up to a lot of time with family/friends. Once it's gone, it's gone and we cannot get that back. Why give anything up? Spirit CAN afford it. Although, I highly doubt Spirit could afford the amount of money it would take for me to vote yes on anything attached to PBS.
I hope people are doing their part to educate (not berate) others on the hazards of PBS and those who are willing to take pay cuts for work rules.
This is NOT a regional. It's our time to sack up.

Nah. They're in such a minority I think that it's not really a threat. Just annoying.

I don't know him from Adam, but I don't think English was his first language.

Let's face it, PBS would be a disaster, for the company. They would go out and find the cheapest software provider possible. Our PBS would come from an internet start up in Bangladesh. On day 1 of implementation it would crash and our whole operation would come to a screeching hault. This is the same company that can't distribute a PowerPoint to its pilots on the NEO differences.
