I don't think there is any doubt this is true. However, some aren't even trying. I think now is time for those on the fence to at least make an effort. Nothing may come of it but now is a good time to fill out the apps and if nothing happens here in August really give it a big push.

Was just posting a headline I saw. Not that it is necessarily relevant, but it could be.

Hopefully, he's buying a bigger house with all the cash he's making.

Not this military guy, no interest from Delta at all, and that's with three recs and a job fair. They must know something I don't about me.

You're right about the compensation part, but I want to stay here for the rest of my career, we need this contract to be a good one.

Take two aspirin, a can of pringles and call me in the morning.

I'd fly with Hitler if it meant a multimillion dollar retirement and a W2 that doesn't have me stressing over my kids college tuition etc.

I go to work to get paid, I go home to have fun.

Agreed. This is not my hobby, this is how I make a living. If Delta can get all this with ALPA negotiating those pay rates, then I expect no different from ALPA in regards to Spirit. I am getting sick and tired of going without and yes stressing on how I am going to pay for college for the kids. Spirit is maturing from a start up, so time to grow up and get the industry standard pay. Vote no until we get a good contract. Our ALPA team is supposed to negotiate for what we want. I want the industry standard pay from ALPA for the Airbus. It isn't rocket science.

So are we being issued an iPad 4 or iPad Air or Air 2? and how much memory do these devices have - 16GB? (i.e. nothing after all the required software is loaded?)
