The 150% talk cracks me up.... How about we worry about industry standard pay, retirement, 6 hour min day, red eye override.... To name a few.
150% means nothing when we are making 50% less than our peers..SWA, Delta, AA( which was offered the highest paying contract in the industry) UniCal, and JB....

On a personal note, if you want to come to work on a day off, why should I give something of monetary value up just so you can get your 150%? It's your choice to work on your day off.
When you go out on medical and collecting long term disability, that 150% isn't going to help you since your disability is based on your hourly and min gaureentee.

You'll actually be bagging groceries because our ltd is the worst in the industry and while most airline pilots will collect until 65 we only get 2 years

I am a bit more confident in my abilities and have multiple revenue streams, I won't be bagging groceries like I did when I was 15, lol, but I get what you are saying.

Wouldn't it be better to be earning those multiple revenue streams AND be getting a check for 60% of your pilot pay for the next 30 years on top of it. I know we would all be pretty ****ed to lose a multimillion dollar career just because the FAA arbitrarily decided that the small medical issue you got this year no longer qualifies you for a first class medical even though that issue allows you to fish, golf, and/or work any other job in the world

Please! If I can get one person to understand how a buisness is run.

Management must laugh their asses off....
We think 150% is a gain in our contract, ha!

exactly. Id rather make the money on MMG than have to constantly "work the system". Dont forget, Spirit opens & closes bases frequently and "working the system" really only benefits those who live in base..................

You've been here for like a minute and now you are the expert on this? How many bases have closed since you got hired here just over a year.

Based on SJU & LGA and the threat od DTW closing last year, I think its fair to be concerned about bases opening and closing.................even though I have "only been here a minute"
