My RICH DAD says you should take a job for experience not for money.

This statement sums up the character of about 65% of the "professionals" on the Regional boards of this website.
Bingo Chup!

First Hire

Gee, remember when you got the call that you were a new hire at NetJets? Oh, what a feeling!! Great company, great schedule, everything that Part 135 wasn't.

Now, it's all BOO HOO!!!!

 

[El Chupacabra]

Well,

There are times when that attitude pays off.... like when you could quickly leave the regionals and go on to a Major.

Managements benefit from this trend by not having to pay what they should be paying.

Gotta be some way to put a stop to it. Like a national union. A cartel that sets the bottom line.

 

[aeronautic1]

Funny

how you would put Union and Cartel in the same context. Organized crime? Look at how well the majors pilot group are represented by their unions. Lay down with NetJets union reps and wake up with fleas.

 

[El Chupacabra]

What's funny? Don't you know what a Cartel is? The Cartel (monopoly) is the goal of Capitalism. Few businesses want to compete on PRICE COMPETITION.

Well, Managements benefit from this trend by not having to pay what they should be paying.

Like when United was owned/run/managed by pilots, and they gave themselves the highest wage/benefit/retirement package in the industry?
Limited time offer, eh? Let's just make minimum wage $25/hr so everyone can be happy.

Gotta be some way to put a stop to it. Like a national union. A cartel that sets the bottom line.

Mmmmm... Communism...

Gern:

It was not wages that ran United into the ground.

BTW, why are you wasting your time with this? Do you like pounding your head against an unmovable brick wall

 

[El Chupacabra]

Mmmmm... Communism...

No sir. Monopoly and Cartel are the province of the Capitalist. They do not want to operate on price Competition.

 

[Publishers]

Trust me, the Soviets loved the words cartel and monopoly equally as well.

 

[El Chupacabra]

I suppose they invented it. Cartels go back at least to ancient Rome. Predating the Soviets by quite a while.

Cartels involve the cooperation of individual businesses. There were a lot of those in Soviet Union eh?

It is true however that LARGE US corporations were and are attracted to Communist countries where they may be granted monopoly status as the sole provider of Cola or certain fast foods, or other products.

When one thinks of Cartels ... how about Standard Oil?
and IG Farben? .
