Only a pilot would bitch about getting paid the same for working less. Fug.

Simply stated.. My days off are the same and my paycheck is >20% less then it was a year ago. 10% to get the 401k match and a loss of 10-15 credit hours each month. If your take home pay dropped by that amount you wouldn't be thrilled either.

Meanwhile i have my bid to transition over across the partition but don't have seniority to hold it. -which is ironic. Because pilots in same airplane and same seat junior to me have already gone over. -Because they were MKE based. Soon it will be because they were MCO based. Next year they will take hundreds more which are junior to me because they sold the 717 and taking those pilots first. (thats a loss of an additional 40k each year)

I realize GK has a business to run.. But a lot the decisions they making since the merger (selling AC, and the pace at which they do things (new reservation system) directly costs me a lot of $.

Its not bitching about getting paid same for working less at all.

If it's such a great deal, Scoreboard, why don't you just bid reserve? You can get paid to sit around, too. Let some other poor slob go fly a line!

I don't think some of the SWA guys realize how condescending it sounds when they talk about "buying the drinks" as if that makes everything OK. Flashing FA's get's closer (assuming it's the girls) but that still doesn't cut it.

How is buying drinks for someone "condescending"? GMAFB.......

What does "cut it"?

Clearly not...

Guess FreightDogFred is right. Waste of time and effort trying to get people to understand other people's perspective that they are actually living every day here.

Sorry I injected a little "reality check" to FlightInfo.

Dan is a fool!! He will take any scenario about SW and bash it.

I think the drink buying is a nice gesture of good will from people who neither had anything to do with what was given to us nor have to do a d*mn thing for us. Truly.

It won't fix anything, but hopefully as feelings subside it will be seen and appreciated for what it is. A gesture of good will from folks who are just doing their job and didn't ask for any of this.

Eventually we are all going to have to row together. It's just going to be a while before we get there... Ain't nuthin anyone can do to make it happen faster.

The genuine difference I've seen lately both on this board and on the line, is the lack of cheer leading for SWA from the SWA employees. Frankly, that is the most welcome sign I have seen yet. I believe SWA has done some great things in the past. But how they choose to handle our merger has been an abomination in my opinion. I don't think they did the SWA employees any favors by creating the caustic conditions they did, then turn around and say OK you figure it out (after they created the mess). So thanks for the drinks, some of us know you are just trying to unf&$k a piss poor situation. And I'm sorry but it makes me laugh to hear SWA management address the merger of the employees and operations. They will say to your face that they wanted this to be the fastest combination possible. But then turn around and say five seconds later that getting a new reservation system and modifying their pilot/FA contracts to handle AT flying was "not a priority". It's their airline, good luck, cause we all need it.

humveedriver gets it.

From a corporate/stockholder standpoint, the merger was handled almost arbitration-free...a home run from mgmt's perspective....as for the bad feelings it has left in the pilot group, on both sides, and particularly the hit that will be taken at the bottom of the combined seniority list for years to come...there is no excuse...
