Oh, wait, they still get 150% OT... Never mind.

Oh yeah, uniform changes coming, stand by on that one...

Ram, your sarcasm is usually funny. But every single post? it gets old.

(just my friendly opinion)

Sarcasm? Me? really?
Ok, well what do you think of this?

Our MEC deep sixed premium pay, now B6 management says "What is the value of premium pay in the context of pilot based compensation reviews?"

Looks like OUR giving away of premium pay is advancing the race to the bottom in airline pay. Proud to be part of it...

For the last 11 years, my w-2 says I've made more money each year I've been here. Am I the highest paid pilot in the states? No. Do I care? Not so much. I'm doin great. I do my trips then I go home and enjoy my time not spent at the fll airport. Just tired of the same old some people make more money than I do horse poop. Give it a rest will ya?

Obviously you are not prepared to discuss the mater on it's merits. I expected more from a new hire that latched on to the MEC teet and acts like an expert on nk, and alpa; then ... Nevermind.

Bottom line, b6 is including us to lower their wages.

Welcome aboard the alpa train to the bottom. (btw, anyone with an Android, try to text "alpa" In small text. Takes some doing.

Perhaps if they had voted in a union, this would not have occurred

Yep, an unscheduled raise would have happened without a union. you're right.

I am brand new here (to Spirit), but not new to the pro or anti ALPA rhetoric. I respect both sides of the argument. But, I heard we have another message board to broadcast these arguments???

On another note....

Do we have two new deliveries sitting on the ramp near Sheltair????

What are the numbers? We should be around 613, 614 or 615.
