The furloughed guys will come back with airplanes, not a potential for an insignificant increase in line value. As for everyone working "forced overtime", that is just rediculous AND YOU KNOW IT!

Let me get this; you are insinuating that by keeping the 150% OT we had better chances to upgrade
I take that getting new frames has nothing to do with moving up?
If you are not aware, since SEP11 2001, with few exceptions, the average FO has been waiting for the left seat for 5-6 yrs., not including the majority of the majors.
Your argument holds zero water.
At least with our new contract, FO's will get better pay, i'm sure you are not turning it down.

Hey can someone pm me the employee website, I haven't looked at it in a few years and forgot it. Can furloughs still get on? I'm sure my email in box is overflowing if they kept it open.

One LAST TIME, and I'll type REALLY slowly for you this time. Better to have a few people picking up OT than the whole group being FORCED to. Allows the company to cover the schedule with LESS PILOTS = LONGER furloughs / LONGER to upgrade. (Even OUR MEC saw the need for a no furlough clause).
You say the only thing that will get furloughs back is new AC. Great, then get off the anti-OT bit. You can't have it both ways.
Finally, why would I turn down the pay RATE increase? It partially offsets the give backs.

I thought i'd never say this, but you and I can not agree, so I say to you REALLY SLOWLY, and a bit condescending, YOU WIN!
Now get the hanky ready for the next contract, you may upgrade and you wont be happy with your pay!!
Happy flying
