so are we planning on asking for a pay cut then??? how do they picture this one working out for us?

I think the best thing would be just to leave this thing alone.

maybe they will threaten the company with more pilots leaving, because I’m sure that’s the last thing they want. Lol

$30 says they try to sell us another bite of the apple and an extension.

I believe he did steer 9E to bankruptcy. I could be wrong but who cares.

apparently not the same one as you. On your planet. you think you can get paid $60 more an hour even though we are about to be bankrupt and you think even if they give us profit it’s going to make a difference.

so let me ask you this question; in order for you get get paid out for profit sharing, don’t you think your company has to be profitable? 🤔 maybe on your planet.

We blew our chances for industry standard in 2018 before the extension and subsequently fd Alligent and Frontier.
