In 2016, skywest made $207 million dollars. In the same period, xjt lost $20 million. Yet, in that same time period they gave xjt pilots a small raise and retention bonus, and a few work rule improvements, on top of our top tier contract (do you need me to post it again?). They just recently announced more bonuses and are negotiating more raises and work rule improvements, despite the continued loses!
If you just look at bonuses (not to mention contract improvements like RAH), every other regional has dramatically increased cost. Yet they were either able to live with the increased costs or gotten a better deal from mainline.
Of course management is going to be biased towards suppressing pilot compensation as much as possible. It's their job and fiduciary responsibility to stockholders. You need an advocate on your side to push back on that that also has a legal responsibility to you as the stockholders have with management.
If you think that what you have now, including this pay package is adequate, you are selling yourself very short.
Thinking you are worth more is not a burn it down mentality.

Maybe it is time to make some fundamental changes.

I also see you still haven't added one intelligent or interesting thing to this discussion.
Wasn't there some post where you criticized some dude for not staying away?
If you're going to be lowbrow and post some gifs at least make sure they have boobies in them. Sheesh

What contractor is going to be able assume the Skywest feed? No one. RAH went into BK and renegotiated their contracts.
I almost wonder if they have a low ball offer with two pronged purpose. The pilots vote Yes and they save money. The pilots vote no, they go to mainline with "proof" that the current CPA is unprofitable to trigger a RAH-like bump.

Tell that to Skywest management. They were the ones who negotiated the money losing CPA 9 years ago. The CAL CPA was profitable up until that point. No employee asked for any of this so don't make it personal against anyone other than management.
But that wasn't the point of what I wrote. They've been low balling you guys for years, that's the point.

Feel free to drop me a PM when you are ready to admit you screwed up by coming back for more. Oh, and don't think for one second I don't know you are blowing up the mods boxes with messages.
I will be waiting for that PM from you, so that you don't have to embarrass yourself in front of everybody. I will let you keep what little dignity you have left.

Ok crazy pants. Maybe you should go over to the delta thread and cry for mommy again.
You clearly have no clue how psycho that makes you look, but I've already apologized for your utterly ridiculous behavior so have it! It's on you now.
Tootles!
