I really don't understand how some of these guys manage to wedge their heads up their arses so deep.

I have to credit 150 hours a month just to break even with minimum guarantee on the Airbus at United at the same longevity. And that's before United gets a SRM call.

"Yeah, well, I don't want to be stuck reserve commuting to EWR as an FO for the next 15 years."

Dude, time to get one of those auto-updating GPS watches, because yours is still stuck on 2008.

I'd think they'd finish up the training section and present monetary items. Wouldn't plan any other TAs though. Company will probably present response in April I bekeife they said during our NC call.

A friendly reminder that southwest 4th year pay in the right seat is more then 4th year captain pay at spirit.

Actually a third 3rd year f/o with 15 percent dc makes more than our 5 year capt.


Don't forget the profit sharing check

The only way I'd be ok with PBS is if the union ran the computers and solutions, top down, start to finish. Otherwise it's a guaranteed 5 year fight to maintain language. This place constantly reinterprets the contract.

I am not pro PBS. But each side does have its valid arguments. I'm an undecided voter until I see the TA and talk to my Rep. Which could be a very long time.

I'd honestly be surprised if the company was crazy enough to actually want it.
