Nwa Hr Called Today

[The Victors]

Ok. You win. and how many millions did he and his staff take home post bankruptcy? Where is your pay scale now? Who has he been throwing under the bus lately in the press?

another productive thread on FI.com....

And some people paid $10 for this. 5 Happy Hour beers would be a better investment.

 

[Occam's Razor]

Ok. You win.

Not 'til my gate party, when me and momma take our AARP cards and our too-big RV down to PHX to clog the city streets every winter, and ensure that every cheap buffet within 20nm of our condo is jammed with wrinkly geezers demanding more easy-to-chew entrees.

Then I'll hang out my Mission Accomplished banner and get down to spoiling my grandkids and ruing the time I wasted debating inconsequential matters with genetically-hindered losers on FI.

and how many millions did he and his staff take home post bankruptcy?

Not many, yet. As your exhaustive research has no doubt shown, most of Dougie's millions are in the future, and are subject to a "must be present to win" clause. I understand his package is less than Tilton's, but more than Grinstein's. I can't confirm that because (and please pay careful attention to this part) I don't really care how much HE makes...I only care how much WE make.

Where is your pay scale now?

On the last two pages of Section 3 of my contract.

My contract is in a 7-ring binder, as it is often modified between Amendable Dates. For example, 4 really crappy parts of it were just changed to my satisfaction over the past few weeks. The most-recent change means my pay scale is not truly indicative of how much I will be earning each month.

(Lemme know if any of this is sinking in...)

Who has he been throwing under the bus lately in the press?

Publicity is a lot like poison. It can't hurt you unless you swallow it.

I don't.

The reports I tend to focus upon are those from my MEC, especially when they announce they've negotiated significant improvements to my contract, and thereby, my QOL and earnings. Fortunately, there have been more of those to read lately.

So...as you said yourself: I win.

I'm glad you win. Most of the junior pilots over at nwa aren't as lucky as you senior guys, but I guess you made sure of that.
As the name calling isn't very productive, I'll try and avoid that as always. My name calling was directed towards your ceo and not you. I'm trying to post opinions of what I hear about the real world of nwa for people thinking about returning to nwa. I guess it's good that Dougie can't get his millions YET, but he sure as heck isn't taking care of you, the FA's , or the scab mech's, etc. bottom line. Yes you did get some recent improvements after Dougie's screw up cost nwa thousands of cancelled fllights. Time and a half pay after 80 hours per month? You get paid for deadheads again? That makes everything better? I know it's an improvement, but it should never had gone away in the first place. It's good that you don't "swallow" the bad publicity, but guess what, the people that buy nwa tickets and pay your salary do. They don't care about what your mec is telling you. All they know is their flight to buffalo is cancelled and Dougie says it's your fault. I could be wrong, but you sound like a guy who "got their's" and doesn't much care about those now coming back on the bottom, because the guys I talk to that are coming back on the bottom have a different story. If I'm wrong about that, then sorry.

Your apology is accepted.
