Nobody cares about your pathetic problems, dude. Except you. Don't come on here looking for sympathy or trolling employees who've a lot more to lose than your entitled carcass.
Vote no and shaddup.
Do you realize how fortunate you are you have a union that negotiated a contract that allowed you to sit at home and get paid for doing nothing since April? Do you realize how fortunate you are to have a job in the midst of the biggest pandemic in the history of our country? You've even got your health (For now, fatboy) and your retirement. (For now, after the wheels really come off the economy you probably won't.)
Self-involved bloviating people like you are the reason I upgraded the moment I could. Mere words cannot express how much I detest somebody who doesn't recognize their good fortune, and doesn't understand that complaining about things they have no control over is toxic.

As I look on the fb united pilots site I have to laugh as people are saying this is so we snap back as a company quicker. Okay Scott Kirby, thats going to happen. lol See you in bankruptcy court before we snap back quicker but keep telling yourselves it'l happen.
In the men time no matter which way this goes the pilot group will be split for years. Enjoy

We are in a union, but not a socialist union. I contribute my dues to better the profession and am proud to do so. I contribute to the furlough fund to help guys out with health insurance and happy to do so. But I draw the line in taking a reduction in mpg to the tune of $4800 a month to pay other pilots salaries.

And correct me if I am wrong, but there will be guys bumped from the left seat to the right who will get to keep their Captains pay rate. They will likely be super senior in BES. They will be the ones slurpoing up the open time, and at Captains pay. And if the company is offering premium pay, they will be making more than the Captain. Nice work if you can get it. Eat sand if you can't.
That’s how I read it as well...
Can’t believe they went with the 1/3’s strategy.... Straight out of Union Busting 101....

OR...
You could be thankful that you will keep your job when thousands of us will be on the street by no fault of our own.
My jean shorts and fresh New Balances WILL NOT be joining you for a drink when we get to the hotel.

[QUOTE=Arthur Vandelay;3130218]That’s very generous that you pay your union dues. Also very generous that you have agreed to pay 1% of your salary to support union brothers and sisters who will be on the street during the worst economic crisis in our lives. Who cares that many of whom are responsible for supporting families. Thanks for wearing your ALPA pin though. That helps.
On the bright side, if UAL ever goes TU, you can go back to being a latex salesman.
