Then again, unions have tried similar stop gaps and and failed for the past 30 years. Yet, you're still typing on a keyboard, watching a T.V. and wearing that shirt that was made in Asia. Talk about hypocrisy.

We have a skill of being able to fly. Let's at least agree to attempt to maximize compensation for the skill we provide. There are no "reasons for getting the flying back" other than GETTING THE FLYING BACK, so I'm not sure what you're alluding to. I didn't come up with the idea of outsourcing, so don't act like I did and don't act like flying the airplane over there is showing support for the decision the management at the airline has made.

I guess I can admit to being "greedy" here so long as you accept the title of foolish. Only if however you define "greedy" as demanding fair compensation for the service I provide to my airline and keeping that flying from being splintered. We'll talk more civilly when you buy an American made T.V. Until then get off your high horse.
