Car parts and crapping in a bag? Hah hah, if only you knew!! Like I said, you will believe anything anybody posts on a message board won't you?
News flash . . . . . by your same argument, what's to say I am not an AirTran manager, and am making anonymous posts for the reason you dreamed up.
First of all, you should have ended that statement with a question mark, a good manager knows correct grammar. Second, you very well could be an AirTran manager, but I doubt it, you get way too emotional.
What a handul of anonymous people say on a message board is not going to affect our negotiating committee, and their mandate is from the 1200 pilots who have been polled extensively about what they are looking for in the next contract.
Do you want to bet? It may not affect your negotiating committee, but I can assure you that the people they are negotiating with, i.e., the company, are reading these types of message boards. By shooting your mouth off about how great your pay and QOL is at AirTran is just one more little piece of ammo the company negotiators will probably arm themselves with. That coupled with the very good probability that AirTran will start posting losses is going to make it very tough for them to justify any type of raise. Can you say concessions?
And comparing AirTran pay to what you make flying car parts around and crapping in a bag while your wife puts out for half the town isn't going to affect the voting decision of 1200 pilots.
Hmmm, I detect some emotion on your part. Is this conversation getting to you? Is insulting one's job and wife your way of trying to hide your true feelings that you are scared that you are going to get screwed in your next contract? Are you feeling insecure?? Because if you were secure, you wouldn't be making statements like that. In fact, you probably wouldn't be bringing them up in the first place.
