Pay for Performance -- Why should it be any different for Managers

Everyone complains about management pay at Airlines which in the grand scheme of things is a pittance. Ironic since the unionized Airline Employees are paid for Seniority NOT PERFORMANCE.

Pilots and Mechanics can argue they are critical to the Operation and as long as the Aircraft takes off and lands without incident that is performance. The same cannot be argued for your Customer Service Agents and Inflight Crews and other employees. Except for a few employees at a few carriers -- Service Sucks and if these guys were paid for performance they would have been making far below the minimum wage. And yes there are some who do a good job -- but they are by far a minority.

So why should management be treated any different?

I'm sure you thought you had a point to make when you started typing but... somewhere between the brain and the keyboard the train jumped the track!:confused:

NO!
Introduction = 1 PBR
Main Body = 2 boilermakers; PBRs w/Wild Turkey
Conclusion = 3 shots of wild turkey

OK, time to write a great post on flightinfo. Well, maybe just ONE more shot of wild turkey followed by a PBR chaser.
Now what was I doing? Oh yeah, writing a great post on flightinfo. Hold on, where's the wild turkey? ...
 
Yes, top pay for managers at the airlines is horrible, why do you think we have a bunch of coporate raiders.
