I'll tell you what is. I'm ****ed. I haven't had a true contract in 22 years. I'm ****ed that we're still paying for the bankruptcy of 20 years ago. I've had every group known to humanity pick my pocket until I bleed. If they aren't picking my pocket, they're stepping on my back to personally promote themselves or protect their family finances due to a misfortunate lot in life. (honest to god I'm not opposed to helping those truly in need)

The quote I've heard over the years is "You can afford it". Management said you pilots can afford to take a greater percentage of pay cuts in bankruptcy over other groups. Pilots have said you can afford to take a pay cut to prevent my supposed furlough. Every time my career gets slashed. Over and over.

Well, management, you can afford to pay me for the decisions I make daily with the lives of hundreds of families in my hands and three hundred million dollar assets under my control. Pilots, you can afford to stop the never ending, mind numbing bull #%^# and finally stand for this profession with integrity and fortitude.

Pick the one dude or dudette who is going to stand up for everyone. He or she might be no 1 or 14001 on the list but please, pick one that has the skills to promote this profession and get the best possible outcome for US ALL!

Obtw.... We shouldn't pay for management's gamble. Start a furlough fund now to protect those who are in need. When management threatens to furlough, and they eventually will, we have the wherewithal to not only make it contractually difficult but also to protect our fellow pilots who need financial assistance.
Sounds like you missed it... the 570 was referring to one person in particular.

No, not really. I'm quite fed up with the agendas that many uphold. The ghost in your closet is yet another example.

"Hello there Mr. Pot"

"Good day to you Mr. Kettle?"

You mean excluding the select group who ushered in a clear record of 6 autocratic years and the Tumi?

Guilty.

To exclude 7000 pilots is ludicrous.

I guess that's a no. If you wish to have fun with Office "570" references go for it.
