Across the board we all earn MUCH less than our predecessors did, and they had much better work rules AND a pension.

So now we all sing the idiotic low cost mantra to justify the cheesy operation. We take off with (sometimes) idiotic fuel loads and cook the pax at the gate. Meanwhile, we have some of the highest paid execs in the industry preaching "shared sacrifice" . Yet, they don't need labor to make this merger a success.

KMA.
But......wait, our CEO just said, "...we are done with merger issues, except for a few small labor contracts."

Agreed except Execs aren't sacrificing a thing.
