Not sure what you mean by the 'moral values' comment or the reference to 'my anti-union "teamsters"', but I do know that of the jobs I've had, both union ones sucked mightily, and a lot of that was due to the fact that there was a huge management/labor rift, mostly caused, as far as I could tell, by labor being dissatisfied with a job that they could have quit and left to someone who wanted it. Of the non-union jobs that I've had, I've quit a couple that I couldn't stand, and quit a couple to move onwards and upwards.

"as far as I could tell, by labor being dissatisfied with a job that they could have quit and left to someone who wanted it"

Well now you sound like most of the anti union lackies here at options, the mear fact that my Management here at Options took away 700.00 per year of liquid cash, warrents the union here at options.

But your comment that I stated above, totally states what kind of person you are, whatever management does is ok, because if you don't like it,as an employee, just quit.

Yea that makes sense!!!

You've no clue, of course, as to what kind of person I am, or where my personal moral compass points, so that comment can be disregarded. I'm merely practical and conservative. Management can't do stuff that's illegal, and if they're smart, they treat their employees with respect, but how on Earth do people get the impression that the company owes the employees anything but pay and hours that the law requires.
Shall we raise the minimum wage to $20.00/hr, too?
I imagine that we should agree to disagree, eh?

you and I are in two different worlds. If I have no clue, than I'm pretty happy haveing no clue. You sound pro-management (CP,no problem here) but this industry, and the corporate world do operate legally, for the most part, which allows for pilots to make mimium wage and upper management to make well over 7 figures. So... what were (labor) supose to just like it, or just quit, that is what your saying. So yes I have no clue

DL, yer not reading what I wrote. Jeez. I said that you have no clue as to what kind of person I am, not that you have no clue about labor/management relations, flying, or life in general. I say again, 'Jeez!'
And as for management -vs- labor, We're all free to become management if we want. I choose not to, because I'm perfectly happy being an employee - labor, if you will. I'm perfectly happy doing my job, making the money I make. I pushed until I got here, and it's exactly where I want to be.
That's how the system works: You push yourself to where you want to be. People just choose different methods of pushing, and the methods have various levels of effectiveness.
And to repeat: Good luck with your travails. Push hard for yourself, but push in the right direction.
