Step 1: if you want to be heard, never start by attacking the person.
Step 2: attack the issue not the person
Step 3: do not attack the person
Make sense?

and that's fine, but don't lash out on me. I'm making an unbiased point that has no goal to sway him or his pilot group in one direction or another.
I was just posting an anecdote to point out how it is out there in real life not on a message board.
Like I said I don't work at PDT and therefore the choice in voting is theirs. I was just presenting some information of what the peers are saying.

People forget that American pilots are not USAirways pilots.
They always ask a lot of questions when I fly in the JS and are very well informed.
But think whatever you want. I heard that management went to AA hiring asking for them to be easy in the questions towards PSA pilots. Apparently they are going hard in them.

Unbiased Point???? Maybe in your head. But believe me what you typed wasn't meant to be unbiased.
No you don't work at Piedmont so grab your popcorn and just watch the show. We at Piedmont have been around for awhile and we know all about there being a real life out there not on this message board.
Thanks for your unbiased views and stories. Now you can take your ball and go home.

They do, and its because the AA pilot group is next. They have been watching very closely, players tactics, responses, all important to them.
When you ask for Delta rates, you don't do without knowing who your dealing with and what kind of union busters management is currently working with.
But being a management cheerleader and official spokes person, you should know that.

Question for ya... If you and Billyhobag really aren't management, as you claim not to be, then why do you keep trying to do managements work and spread fear and doom every chance you get? You both sound more like Glass, than an actual line pilot! Just about every real professional pilot I know is fed up with giving more and more in concessions, only to see management line their own pockets with ever larger bonuses and salaries, especially while the airlines are making all time record quarterly profits in the billions of dollars!

We are only as strong as the weekest link(s). The battle seems lost today due to the entitled SJS generation. How well do you think they will be welcomed among the seasoned veterans of the long term embattled mainline? I for one am proud of my group who attempted to make a stand for the profession. It might not turn out the way I would have liked, but I wont have to hide who I was in the future. Like it or not, what we do follows us for our careers.
Btw, Im sure your career as a management union buster is safe.
