Personally I was thrilled for SWA contact, hoping dal, jbu and you guys get something soon.
Honestly dude, I don't believe that for a second. Ultimately what will end up happening is by the time we we get a contract it will be a wash and equate to what our management (both NKS & F9) offered initially. TIME, VALUE, , MONEY. This is especially true when we talk about our retirement. Delaying as long as they plan will of course work out in managements favor, it always does.

They will delay as long as they have until one of three things happen.

1. Economic collapse
2. Merger
3. Until their hand is forced by the RLA and who are we kidding, if it ever gets to that point they could pay us FedEx rates and they would still have saved money by delaying it as long as they did.

It's really frustrating and I try not to stress over it but I can't help but shake my F----- head with each new podcast and company video of them telling us "how much they appreciAte their employees"

I swear, I'd have so much more respect for them if they came out with a video that said, "you are worthless pieces of **** and are nothing but an impediment to our super low CASM". We would love to fire every fng single one of you if we could and replace you with Slave labor if it were allowed but we can't HIGH FIVE!

In all fairness, maybe Bendo has said that, lol. I haven't listened to a podcast in a year. Who knows!

Totally agree! I'm not sure what it will take to completely **** this pilot group off. Guys are still tripping over themselves for MUP to bail out a management team that laughs all the way to the bank with their bonuses and profits while we make united FO wages as captains.

Keep profit sharing and scope remains the same. Not sure about the rest

Well if they insist on number 3, you can bet I'm coming for my FedEx money and not settle just to settle like the FAs did after 9 years

See you in dfw ok the 11th?

And can someone tell me who the genius architect was in '10 that decided training on days off was a good idea? Pure insanity! If your training falls in a holiday month where you would typically bid to have very specific days off or a vacation touch, along comes crew train with fukcing sim days!!!!!!
