Just quit? Tell that to my two kids. I categorize that with the union constantly telling me to accept it and move on. And we wonder why pilots drink like fish and go through marriages like underwear. There is no support at this level, not from mgmt or our union. Answer me this... if Menke throws out our contract do yoh think its right that we have to keep paying dues? Cause we will...

In a few years, it's going to mean jack at just about all the regionals. Is United going to conitnue to pay higher rates for their contract flying after Delta and American have beaten their feed into submission? You don't want a paycut? Too bad, we'll file bankruptcy and give the planes to someone who'll fly it for less. But stick with it, that hiring boom is JUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUST around the corner!
