Zip it, I dont think so!!

With the way things are in this industry now.....Dude you need to ZIP IT! If you have a grievence? Talk to your rep and explain to them how overworked we are and that you deserve 200% for JA's. Better yet, reach down in the depths find a little humility, and thank God almighty your not at some Supplemental carrier or at Mesa where a lot of times its straight pay and instead of having 10 or 11 days off a month its 9 or 10.

Drink somemore koolaid. I like it here at SWA but there is plenty of room for improvements in pay and QOL not to mention throwing gear for 10-14 years.

As for you God I will leave that up to you and your humility.

DEN growth = shrinking pool

Got the call today for the June 4th class! There will be 24 in the June 4th class. PD also confirmed earlier posts that there will be two more newhire classes in June!

I asked what the rate of deferral/decline has been and was told only a handful earlier in the year had to defer class due to mil./family commitments but otherwise just about everybody has been accepting the class assigned.

Congrats to all!!! We're extremely fortunate in these times and hopefully many more to come can feel the LUV! Now I must go pour a glass of Kool-Aid to celebrate!

Drink somemore koolaid. I like it here at SWA but there is plenty of room for improvements in pay and QOL not to mention throwing gear for 10-14 years.

As for you God I will leave that up to you and your humility.

If your pride needs a fourth stripe to justify itself then fine. However chucking gear as a 10yr FO you will make more than most other airlines' Captains. Furthermore, I believe that this whole 10-14 year FO thing is as dumb as the poolies thinking they are going to be poolies for 2-3 years. Except for FedEx/UPS reserves doing nothing, could you please give me an example of how we can improve our QOL that isn't typical pilot whining.

With out getting into specific detail: how about a contract, improved reserve rules and pay, GDO's that you can use on short notice, no more free DH on Vacation pull or overlap. How about COLA for the last two years. ect ect I could go on about duty day, JA, VJA, a pension fund or matching 401k amounts, splits trips that pay nothing with no rigs ect ect.

I am not saying it is not good here just need to keep tweeking the contract and the QOL and scheduling rules that we all can understand and agree to.

FlyArticCat - word brother.

There is a difference between Nirvana and Eden. You've hit a FEW of the high spots. I'm damn glad to be here but to think it's perfect is far from the truth. We are card carrying members so we have the rite to complain if we see fit.

Whataburger. My beloved brother. Have you NOT run the projectors for future upgrades? I have flown with MANY guys who are looking right down the barrel at 13 years in the right seat. I know you are hearing the same things I am about unseen growth but I believe two things -

what I see in my checking account and what I see on the ramp.

Gup

 

[Rtrell]

Ya'll just keep the cat posting over and over so I can check out that sweet avatar.

I am in agreement with him by the way. The man speaks the truth. Few tweaks here and there are all that is needed. Welcome poolies. You are going to really like working here.
