I've got a couple of extra In & Out Burger paper hats from my last trip out to Reno. They're brilliant!

I respectfully disagree brother. The company gets nothing out of KCM. They will make zero money out of it. And I don't want any extra expenses that would cause hardship on our golden goose. (Look at VX), we make money, lets keep it going.

And we know NK can care less about GOOD benefits for us. So i think it should be ALPA paying for it, after all alpa represents the best interest of the pilot group, NK pilots pay more than enough to cover the magazine we get every month we could easily cover KCM. $3.00 a piece.

And the hat fight, I personally think is the dumbest fight we got going, 80% of us can care less about the doorman hats we are about to received.

That's a very bad attitude to have. "Look at VX", yes look at VX, it loses money on a net basis but still pays KCM for our pilots. Meanwhile your profitable company wanted to get contract concession(s) in exchange for KCM. You just made a record profitable year in Spirit's history. So it is pathetic for your management to want a concession in exchange for KCM. Lets give some credit to your pilots and have your management pay for KCM.

SHY do you work for NK? If you do what in the entire history of this Management team makes you think they will pay for this or should? So what if our company if profitable, we are not southwest, we don't have a lovey dovey relationship with out team. So in turn for them not willing to pay for KCM we should take them to the coals for every single piece contract language that screws them in the end. Just my opinion.

I bet we could be persuaded to sacrifice our lids in exchange for KCM. Has this idea been proposed? Seems like a win-win proposal.
