Enjoy an extra couple bucks tomorrow and keeping up with inflation for now.

SG1159

I wondered who it would be....
At least in my top 3 guesses....

Acehole

Still many dollars behind the rest...
without redeye incentives..
no profit sharing..
poor retirement compared to the rest..
12 months and no PBS so crappy rigs..
a sloped pay scale..AGAIN.
But hey, folks are super happy about the growth! Oh wait...
nope...

Happy signing day!

Hooray!!! We aren't last, but close!

Will those extra dollars go into effect tomorrow or on the 2nd like last year???

Was I on your top 3 list?

Sad thing is inflation is actually higher than what the CPI says it is. They leave out some important stuff. So I would even say we are loosing to inflation even including our pay raise.

Actually I think it’s the 2nd

You’re right and they changed the calculation last year I think. It’s close enough to call it even for now though

Sad and all true.

Most of the things the 70% of us signed were to get us in the ballpark, the next contract will definitely put us way up there but hey it’s all what you make of it. Keep your finances in order, keep a positive attitude and the order book will fulfill its self. However, make sure if you’re not happy here you apply elsewhere simple as 123. And hope for a call and they get out of the way and allow someone else to progress UP the list who really wants to be here. Of course we all want to see $285-325 an hour, 15 direct percent into our 401(k), and profit-sharing which is industry standard. But we have to remember where we are in the lineup and they did ask for it and unfortunately it didn’t happen. Sux. But it’s where we are. I travel a lot outside of the USA and I realize I am .00001% of the world so I am grateful for this job and it’s only going to get better. We have a fantastic pilot group. I feel we deserve above and beyond but it’s just the nature of the business keep tight as a group on and we will get there eventually. Fly safe that way the contract.
