A few strategically placed sick calls- you can EASILY go 6 months.....

I gotta be honest if they slid over United's contract including the delta snap up and amendable in Jan of 2019. I'd vote yes tomorrow PBS and all. We would stall hiring and upgrades for several months I would guess but the Scope and LTD alone would be worth it. We have zero protection against code sharing. Zero, none. Our ltd is worse than a regional. Get $500/Hr and lose your medical, screwed. The pay and retirement more than make up for transition conflict. If you don't think so you are here as a hobby not a career to make money and support a family.

You ignorant ****s who think UAL has poor work rules and we somehow have it so great are really starting to **** me off. Wake up guys, our work rules are decent but our pay and everything else is so ****ing ****ty it doesn't matter.

You can take this bullsht line bidding and and shove it up your A--.

Give me PBS with Legacy pay and work rules and I'll sign it tomorrow.

Seriously? You guys are lost that believe we have some sort of amazing QOL compared to legacies, that is dumb and ignorant. I know plenty of pilots at each of those airlines, they get as many or more days off than us and also make a **** ton more. Bendo, if you are reading this, just copy that UA contract word for word and I am a yes voter today!! I bet it would pass big.

Haha...I really dont think it matters at this point.

I would tell Bendo and Jyri to their face that I would gladly take PBS and lose conflict and line bidding for United's rates. Im not going to not take a raise of $100 an hour so GH can continue to get his mega conflict transitions every month in DFW. Sorry...nope...

United's CAs will top at $258 an hour for 12 year A320 CA vs $169 for us. So 72 hour guarantee for a United CA will be $18.5k a month. A Spirit CA needs to credit 110 hours to make the same. How magical and awesome do we think our work rules are that crediting 110 to make the same as guarantee at another airline is comparable? Not even mentioning 401k, LTD, profit sharing etc...

By the way...United 320 FO pay at 12 years, $176 an hour...$7 more than our CAs at 12 year....tell me more about our awesome work rules.

It'll be funny to see the look on GH's face when he finds out he's losing his 12 day conflicts every month.. So glad he helps build these ****ty ****ing lines for the rest of us! Have your ASAP app ready when flying with him.. Haha

I'm not saying I disagree with you. I am just not one to out my position out here on a management read forum. It's not your point of view that I'm worried about,it's somebody that posts a bottom line less than yours.
