a) 50+ crowd who needs to makeup for pension, anyway possible.
b) Large alimony payment, expensive hobby
c) Just LOVE flying for what it is, doesn't care if he gets paid or not.
There's gotta be a fine balance between efficiency like SWA and getting paid like SWA. I want to get paid MORE than SWA, but work less than SWA.
I don't mind if the a-c) group wants to make as much as possible for personal gains via white slip, green slip, sitting extra short calls, cleaning cabins, but I have a problem when that group impose the same "work ethics" to the rest of us slackers

RVR,
I don't fit into any of your groups and would love to get paid more and work less than SWA - but is that realistic?
I do believe Johnson was joking.I am a fly as little as possible type of guy (even flying reserve when I can hold a line) but do not think that anyone "imposed" anything on us - it was after, a vote that decided the TA.

Anybody having trouble getting on icrew today, or is it just my crappy old laptop? I get on Deltanet fine, but as soon as I go to icrew, I get logged out.

No, I really do want to get paid like SWA without the same amount of work. I'm a min schedule kind of guy.
