Why bother with facts when you can spend your time making clever quips?
I hope you get back an airplane soon Ty. I really do. Your frustration is starting to show.

Ok- time to call a spade a spade.
Ty- you talk of your great schedule and all the money you make and what a great senority you have and the easy commute you have.
When is the last time you actually flew a jet?
Some of us know exactually who you are, and know of your situation. And I...
OYS-
Pretty fast and loose with your 'may' and 'if' and 'could'.
Easy to say when it's not your carreer.
Especially when your real hope is for the ultimate FAIL of Swa.
Oh, wait, all you care is about 'fair'. I forgot.
DH82dvr-
Use the same thought process and expand on it. Your QOL would have gone through the roof, you just don't know it because ALPA didn't explain it to you. You are simply ignorant of what SWA is all about. Not a slam, but if and when you get here you will see what I mean.
SWA is NOT...
You AT guys keep spouting the same BS.
32% ALPA talking point. All real world BS.
The first 1600 SWA guys won't be touched. They were here before you existed as an airline.
So, even your number 1 pilot will end up 1601 out of 8000.
That's a 20% 'haircut'. For your #1 guy. With varying %...

Had em for 3 years, still look perfect and drops the temp a lot- and can see through them. Also supposed to be equal to SPF something.
Overall, I like.

Ty Webb,
Just a heads up, someone is posting under your name. Rational thoughts and no one called a d-bag? Must be someone else.
Either that or you finally figured out that you won the lottery.
Wonder which?

Dicko-
So it's fair that a 7 year AI Capt keeps his seat who gets to fly with an 11 WN FO who also keeps his seat.
Makes perfect sense, after all, the SWA FO isn't harmed at all, right?
Got it.
Thanks, and again very sorry for your 'loss' and misfortune.

Dunno know, but he was pissed that they didn't even answer the SWAPA proposal. He believes that 80% of them would have LOVED the staple offer. Now he's afraid he'd lose his job.
Then he tried to explain the Midwest/Republic/Shuttle America mess and I got pretty confused. Pretty easy for me...
An F9 Jumpseater said some sort of announcement today at 2:30.
He didn't sound hopeful. He wasn't happy with their union-and seemed like they were sold up the river by the few at the top who wouldn't even consider the first SWA offer.
Of course, maybe all BS since he was getting a free ride...
Interesting reading.

Especially the post dated 6 Aug 2009. Interesting historical analysis and the comments sound a lot like the stuff floating around here.
Good luck guys, I really think you would have liked it at Southwest.
I hope there is good news today at...
Curious, what do I have to gain as an 8 year FO?
Money- got it.
Better schedule, nope.
Better bennies?, nope already maxed out so that 10% doesn't help at all
Oh, I'll have a chance to spend a few extra years yanking the gear for a 6 year AT captain?
Really? And that's what is fair in...
Hey Gen/OYS I'll bite. I'm an 8 year FO at Wn.
What do you wanna look at? Total pay, pay vs block hours, pay vs time away from base?
You pick the metric.
But I know the answer, you'll dance around it and make some crack about AMA or the like. That's cool, but if you really wanna compare...
And -9capt (before I get kicked off)
Do you not find your post and your signature line a bit ironic?
You'll like it over here, really. No matter where we all end up, it'll still be better than where we were.
Let our joint teams do their jobs. It'll all work out.
Hopefully we can do it...
I'm sorry OY6 for stating you were acting like an A-hole. I was not calling you one, I was simply stating my opinion that you were acting like an A-hole.
Actually, I am wrong.
I'm pretty sure that you are an A-hole.
I'll take my week off now.
Happy Easter. And look forward to flying with...
That's the thing.
An agreement WILL be reached. And I may not upgrade. And you might not keep your Capt seat. And I might not get a raise. And you might get displaced...and ...and...price of gas goes to $250 and we'll all be looking for a Walmart greeter job. Life will go on.
But in the...
Thanks for your great words of wisdom OY6.
What's your hard on against SW?
Your drivel makes you sound like a major league A-hole.
In the end, I want the AT guys to be happy also. I'm gonna work with them for the next 25 YEARS! So I've got real investment in their happiness. Really.
In...
