viper548 said:the mechs and aircraft cleaners don't have as much vested as the pilots do. An A&P could easily get a job at a BMW dealer and make the same if not more. An aircraft cleaner probably didn't spend much toward their training. It's not so easy for a pilot to make a lateral move. Wherever you go, you have to start at the bottom again. I don't blame them for striking, they can easily get a job somewhere else doing something similar for better pay.
So that is the reason we should keep getting less, because we are highly skilled, and too specialized? That's rich.. No wonder NWA wanted to get rid of the bag handlers making 50K, why should they pay that if they can pay RJ pilots 25K.
Interesting, 4 year degree, highly specialized job individual lowers the bar so bag smasher high school grad has to take paycut.. We are going to wipe each other out. And we joke about having that number for truck masters driving school.
