Johnny's dad has been abusing him too long, and now Johnny has a case of Stockholm Syndrome. Dad hopes the crappy Christmas skates are going to atone for the awkward situation with Johnny, meanwhile he's secretly socking money away for a vacation home in the Bahamas so he can run away with his side piece and disown Johnny the red-headed step-child once and for all.

Johnny’s mom ended up getting on at OnlyFans.com and now they make a lot of money and Johnny has a way cooler bike than Tommy and they lived happy ever after.

Arbitration would be a huge disadvantage to the pilots, and we don’t have it in our contract. So as far as it being 100%, nope.

This has been covered on every road show.
Sweet baby Jesus… thank you for pointing this out. It’s obvious that we have some newbies or woefully uninformed pilots.

Except Johnny's dad. He went broke on a bad crypto investment, side piece left him, and now plays guitar and sings on the streets of Nashville begging tourists for change.

Yeah, properly running the airline. I think I got a half dozen x list calls today.

No, but management will get paid, and they aren't afraid to try to get what they think they're worth.

If they are so broke, why didn't we get profit sharing? And don't say it was a non-starter, because so was PBS for us last time around.

They make it seem like the TA is a gift from Spirit that they can barely afford and will put us in debt even more.

I can honestly see where the NC and MEC and ALPA legal are coming from. It’s the safe bet, “3 bites of the apple”. I’ve watched the roadshow, went through the FAQ, and it makes sense. But it’s a little biased and has slight flavor of fear mongering sprinkled throughout which I find distasteful. I’m voting no.
I wouldn't say for sure.

I mean I've known people in my life and I'm sure everyone here has known or heard of someone who quit their good paying job and took a lesser paying job while going through divorce. This is no different. If I'm playing poker, I don't show my hand.

Market rates for pilots have nothing to do with the company's accountants making their books look bad on purpose.

Definitely agree with the veiled fear mongering though. Based on chat groups, it's working... unfortunately, it came time to stiffen the old back and well...
