What is the minimum?
Reading your emails and then doing the surveys or PDR's.

But, at the end of the day- it is what it is.
I fly with too many people who don't even know some of the basic things in our contract. Don't understand our Pay (which isn't easy, but if even I can figure out the basic, everyone should!) and haven't even looked or read the Contract Comparison.

Maybe it's a sign of the times.. but it is telling.

Ya, just read the contract, it is written in such a straight forward language that is so simple to understand and is organize in one logical place where you don't have to dig around and reference a hundred other citations, yep, no lawyers or grievance committees necessary...

It has never mattered, senior pilots on the negotiating committee make all the blunders anyway. Trying to fix in in the next contract. And the same folks keep getting elected...

You may want to check the background of the last negotiating committee. I'll give you a hint....mostly junior narrow body.

Really, Narrow Body FOs. Well I'll be...

Sure didn't look that way at the road shows selling it to us.
