You're too stupid to follow a detailed response so I'll make it short. Those of us that are drawing a military pension are doing so because we survived. We've all got lots of dead friends and colleagues who didn't make it. I doubt you've lost many of your co-workers in a french-fry vat...
Here's my idea. Let's get a big room and lock our 15% and your 15% in there. Let them beat the bejeesus out of each other and the rest of us can go about our business.
For what it's worth, the only negative SWA guy I've met was 2 days after the merger announcement. Post agreement, I've been...
Agree 100%!!!!! If you can pay but walk away just because you are under water, then you are an orifice where excrement comes out.
......and ditto on the fog lights!
As long as you're okay with where the money goes. "Progressive" is not just a company, it's an ideology. There's a reason the CEO chose that name and he contributes heavily to leftist causes.
Back to the original post here........
Two thoughts here. First on the bag fee question, just from my observation as an AT pilot (before and after bag fees) and from the few times I've ridden on SWA planes, I'd guess that the assigned seating and bag fees add at least 15 minutes to the turn...
"Albie Wan" is wise. Listen up folks.
Although instead of "Network" it should read NETWORK!! That point can't be over-emphasized. If you really want to get on somewhere that wants internal recommendations, ask friends, family and neighbors if they know someone on the inside. When I first...
That's due to the approximately 25% "Crew Schedules Department Buffoonery factor" that SWA doesn't need to account for. This was demonstrated during last week's ice storm. Skeds had no idea where a significant number of crews were even though they were right where they were supposed to be...
Wish I could have attended. I was primed to go when it was the 12th, but had to work on the 13th. I've had several conversations with with my SWA bretheren over the past few months and all were positive, except for one guy.......
Looking forward to working with you guys and S... canning our...
I wonder now how the slackers will get their free pass out of the military. Most of the discharges I know of were "self disclosures" and surprizingly happend just a few day before a deployment.
Ditto. Culture is about environment. Our management has been holding this place back with their treatment of employees. It's hard to get motivated to do anything above and beyond when Crew Skeds has just found a way to steal a few hundred bucks from you or flat out lie to you so you will take...
Huh? You've never had CREDIT above 70? I'm not buying that. It's still based on credit of day guarantee or block time if greater for any assignment. The difference is that you start from zero instead of 70. The difference now is that a day where they DON'T use you is zero credit time vice...
Reserves losing pay Muppets? Another person that doesn't understand the system. You'll make MORE during the slow months since you'll get 78 vice 70 at a better pay rate (for me that's about 87 at the old rate). And during the heavy fly months you'll make more. A lot of guys fail to realize...
Other way around pal. The guys who voted no are here and on the ALPA board, but they are hard to find in the crew lounge.
I went to a road show last week and asked if they had any no voters speaking about their displeasure. The answer? Not one. He even named off one of the loudest critics...

Then listen to Janet. She had a chance to put the story to bed and didn't do it.
When asked today if she will insist that Muslim women wearing hijabs must go through full body pat downs before boarding...
So you vote no. Then what? Yes I would have like to have seen better pay rates, but a no vote is cutting off your nose to spite your face. If the TA fails, we are done. No more negotiation, we are parked. Period. Bob ads millions to the company coffers and his bonus thanks to you.
We...
Consider yourselves lucky that you won't see our board. It's sort of like a car crash on the highway. It's horrible and disgusting but you just can't look away.......:eek:
