Yet another reason for ALPA to push for REVENUE sharing rather than profit sharing. Profit is amenable to accounting gimmicks. Revenue is pretty definite. And it’s not without precedent. States do it all the time with sales tax. They don’t give a rats rear if you are selling items with a tremendous markup or at a loss, they get their fixed percentage.

lol Spirit will never share a cent with pilots. We’ll be lucky if we get meaningful raises.

Looking at the 10-Q, we had record revenue and barely made a profit of 3.6m, after applying some funny money adjustments and write offs. The operation still lost money.
Bang up job by the beard and the boys. They deserve a big bonus. TC: "Look past the loss, we kept costs low!" JG and RH: "Amazing! here's 40 million" |

I can tell, you just don't listen. You get an idea in your head, and no matter how many times, and in how many ways you are shown it is flawed, you just stick your fingers in your ears...

Nothing flawed about it. It works fine for 48 states and the. District of Columbia. The fact you feel it is “flawed” doesn’t make it flawed. You are entitled to your opinion, but it’s no more than your opinion. You aren’t the universal arbiter of flawed and unflawed.
This management has fought with supernatural ferocity to keep us from taxing their profit (simple profit sharing plan) which would only be due when the company is healthy and making a profit, and you think they will let you tax their revenue and pay us whether times are good or catastrophic?!? All the reasons you think it's a good idea make it a non-starter for them. And their is NO precedent in the airline business, not even close. When it comes to contract negotiation matters, I'm far from a defeatist but on this one you're nuts. |

Is the airline a government entity? Which airlines have allowed labor to tax their revenue?
