Funny how anytime anything comes out on this TA. Its automatically "Jokes/Vote NO" Now that its been a week and the dust has settled I would like to see a more civilized discussion.. wont happen on this website. But seems to be happing in the airport, overnights and crew lounges...
Here he wants to stop the discussion in several ways:
1. He says civilized discussion won't happen on this website. Basically he calls us all a bunch of Neanderthals. He wants everyone watching the debate to view this as the thoughts of the uninformed and dim witted.
2. Next, he wants everyone's initial reaction to be discounted, after all we have all had a week to get used to the news that this is all we are worth.
3. He claims the "civilized discussion" is happening in the airport, overnights, and crew lounges. Is that under the watchful eye of management? Who talks like that? I imagine that they had about 6 of them an entire 8 ours trying to figure out how to phrase it like that.
I have not seen anything uncivilized in this discussion. I believe that what he, I really believe I should be saying "they", don't want are facts and logic brought into the conversation.

CRJ flying in China, pay ranges from a low of 165,000 up to 235,000.
Skywest wants to go from 65 an our up to 66.30.
Here is another one 16000 to 18000 per month plus yearly bonuses.
https://jobs.flightglobal.com/job/14...OB-RecruitNet&
There is another one in London at 120,000.
These are new hire contract salaries, not after 15 years like in the US. The overabundance of pilots is over and salaries need to skyrocket to be an incentive for enough people to come into the field.
Just wait and you will get a lot more.

So nobody can answer how you guys think it's logical to vote yes based off rumors. If all this was true why didn't they just tell us it before the package? Probably would sway more votes in their favor.
Instead we get vague emails that say "growth opportunities" and rumors flying left and right from people saying "I talked to____" "_____ sat in the jump and told me"
Seriously? That's how we vote for these things?

If "we" have a brain "we" vote NO, because this is pathetic.

I doubt it, that would actually cost them more than the entire current existing offer.
