The OP is a troll.
Claims to be retired SF and UAL pilot who also was afraid to fly.
Any ALPA pilot knows who and when negotiations and contracts come up.
Please stop feeding him.

Turn in your ALPA card please and go do something else with your time.

Actually, a new hire makes more than the median salary of a full time worker, which is around $60k.

We might as well make as much possible and save while we can before robots take over.

But the mods are volunteer pilots, no? Why would they care about ad revenue?

This site has always been a cesspool of trolls, but it definitely seems like the losers have been more prolific lately.

This site was just a stepdown from *************.

But it has since degraded.......
