I can see why Bro FO's voted for this. But for the life if me, why would anyone agree to a pay freeze with almost nothing in return? Why people continue to vote against their own best interest I bet Freud couldn't answer.

It's a slap in the face pay freeze for the vast majority... Total crap sandwich!

For those keeping score at home, there were 36 in the 1/27 new hire class. 7 Bro and 29 CRJ. Diverse group - some CFI's, 3 from the SKW cadet deal, at least a dozen from other regionals, at least 4 that hadn't been flying professionally (retired firefighter, retired ATC, dentist, telecom professional) and a couple military.

Is it the best? No, it's not. But it's not a step back either. Also, this is just a yr contract. 2015 could be much worse or much better time will tell.

I find it funny you don't realize it saves the company money due to the new 2 year seat lock. When asked about the cost of the seat lock by XJT ALPA, SAPA had no comment. You just saved SKW money, therefor you took concessions. Good job.

Seat lock=concessions???? Okay....
Did we take an hourly pay hit? Deadhead hit? Per diem hit? Min day hit? No, we didn't. Perhaps you should look up the word concession...

Do you have any idea how much it costs to not have a seat lock??? Ask pinnacle how not having a seat lock hurt them. Training events aren't cheap and the seat lock does not effect upgrade.
