SWA FO Pay Rates?

[Whataburger]

I'm gonna have to side with Humvee on at least one thing. I give all my thanks to SWA for my payrates. SWAPA is just required to be in the room. SWA pays us what they can afford, not a dime more. There is nothing to negotiate.

I thank SWAPA for age 65.

I thank Humvee for originating the thread the became the 'Meter.

A trip is worth about 55 minutes, therefore a trip is worth less then an hour of pay. So if you fly one hour, it pays 1.2 trips. Every 5 minutes pay .1 trips. Just think in trips, it's easier.

Dang, just when I thought I had it right. It's like converting your money to pesos, only it's actually worth more!

In Iraq we had the donut of misery. An excel spreadsheet that counted down our days left in country in the shape of a large donut. Nothing like having a little time on your hands to learn the finer points of excel. We should have a December 12 party. Make it a "Hail and Farewell".

You can thank SWAPA for that huge pay bump. Not ALPA.

Interesting. I don't remember SWAPA being at the NMB HQ when the TA was reached. I guess their omnipotence reaches across continents.

Our CEO gave them a pay raise last fall. Not theirs.

Really? In that case, he violated federal law in a very serious way. Maybe you should check with Gary before you start crediting him with things that would land him in jail. Anti-trust laws are serious business.

Pay bump? What pay bump? Ohhhh....the one most of us will see in 2015? Yeahhhh.

Please, keep providing unsolicited "you're welcomes" in the terminals, crew busses and elsewhere. It comes off as conceited, arrogant, pompous and makes it easier to pinpoint the imbiciles right off the bat.

I still believe that Southwest is a good company with a lot of great people. If anybody is to blame for its eventual downfall, that small percentage described above have only to look as far as the closest mirror.

Pride preceedeth the fall.

Stay classy jimmy.

Love how a simple honest question got turned into this, you guys are pathetic! When I retire in 25 years, you guys will still be bickering about this stupid crap!!! Fly with any of the 23k guys and start a conversation about "Morris", same crap and that was 20 years ago!

The mergers are not done, you may want to save some of your hatred!

Really,

95% Strike vote.

No progress whatsoever with your management....

Them all of sudden post announcement.

Boom... 30% Pay Raise right before Christmas????

Yeah, that pay bump... Remember???

Have to agree with Jimmy on this one.

SW announces purchase, then a new contract on the table.

It would have been another year before AAI would have had anything to vote on. Management was pulling a complete Heisman. Payrates weren't even close to being done.

The AAI CEO had to clean up his house for the sale. Pretty simple. AAI could easily still be working under the old payrates.....NOW!

 

[humveedriver]

Hey, I was just illustrating that even WITH the bump in pay, my FO peer at SWA cleans my clock financially. It's all about those trip thingies. They lead to a bigger pay day then the rate.
