He signed that poorly written contract with United; now he's unhappy with what he agreed to and wants them to re-negotiate after the fact.
I'd feel for him, but he keeps throwing OUR poorly written contract in our face and telling us "you signed it, you live with it".
United is perfectly within its rights to slam that contract down his craw, and if it means the end of Mesa due to attrition, then it's our CEO's fault. That's why he gets the big bucks (4.5 million last year alone).
Unfortunate as it is for the Mesa pilots (because attrition is impacting us system wide), it's ultimately a good thing, because it's forced hundreds of pilots here to look for other options . . . and there are MANY other options. So instead of sucking it up and being miserable for 5 or 10 years at Mesa, they're leaving at year 1,2, or 3 and actually enjoying life at other places.
