It's already built into his assumptions, and it's built into mine.

yup we will never have this much amount of leverage again. Between attrition and a needed joint CBA if we don’t get it here we will never have it.

It's ok to be blue collar. I'm a farm kid and ok with who I am.
jetblue pilots are Blue collard, however Spirit pilots are white collard. Lol

As a 10%er, let's get a few things straight: 1) none of us have made 300k the last two decades, 2) if I was gonna interview with Delta, I would've done it while you were jamming to Maroon 5 in your parents' basement, 3) us 10%ers all struck, walking off the job in the ultimate effort to demand better pay and work conditions. What have you done?

Classy move, attempting to alienate those on your own team. Franke would be proud.

Yeah his comment seems odd to be honest. Seems every 10%'er I have flown with proudly wares their pin and seems committed to make solid gains in this next contract.
