I don't like unions, and think they are bad, not just for airlines, for everyone. I told your before I understand what you are saying but I don't have to agree with you, no matter how many times you say it. Then you come at me hostile like, trying to bully me into agreeing with you.
No one has said any of the above, you are reacting emotionally. We have provided factual data and you still refuse acknowledge any of it. Every time Alaska, Southwest, Delta, American, FedEx, UPS fly over you at cruise remember you are making less per hour and have worse benefits. Why should that be?

93+% off all pilots in this country are unionized. Are we the smart ones or the dumb ones?

Well, no wonder we have to sit in the CRM class for 72 hours nowadays to learn how to talk to pilots that are sensitive to criticism or share differences in opinion, and try not to hurt their feelings while trying to manage non-normals. You have to think twice before asking other pilot for QRH in time critical situation without making him feel bad, these days.
The 9th place ribbons and certificates of participation really helped in character development.

Although I agree that we need representation. The idea that 93% of pilots do something so it must be the better choice means that brainwashing works well not that we need a union. I know you can come up with better reasons for a CBA then that. If JB had better than average total benefits & compensation and stated it in our PEA's I wouldn't be pro CBA.

Hence the need for a CBA.

Lol, you guys are funny. All you do us complain constantly then gain up on someone that does not agree with you. Good luck at your next airline. To the guy that left for United, good luck hope your happy there. It's funny that you still come here to complain. Greedy pilots and unions are what led to a lot of people getting furloughed. I don't have the time to explain it to you. All you care about is your pay check.

Yes, managing the business has nothing to do with success of the airlines; IT"S THE GREED of airline pilots. I'm speechless, I was blind and now I see!!!! Thank you for your enlightenment
You are in for a thrill of flying and nothing else, and perhaps that explains your position on business killing trying to bankrupt poor airlines uinons....

Good luck to you with your flying endeavors, I hope your parents have deep packets.

Why don’t you read this: http://www.bluetruthpilots.com/
And perhaps it would be wise to signup for www.bluepilots.com if you are a jetblue pilot.
BlueWays is very touchy if you filter the fact that her flight training and academics were paid by dad’s TWA money, she has really struggle to get through college and took a bunch of loans for flight training that she can’t paid off now – right?
In addition, her being hired at the preferential group at TWA pilots with lower minimums, had nothing to do with fact that her father was a pilot there, or am I too harsh again?
Aren't you at UA now?
