If taking a cut keeps the job I love then I am willing.
It's attitudes like that, that has made a mockery of our profession. Now we can see clearly why mgt laughs at us and has no respect for pilots. Because people like you will gladly get down on their knees and do anything, (I can't post my true thought here) to fly.
First of all, pay cuts do not anything, except cause more financial hardships. We have already seen that. Second, if a company can not afford to pay their employees, they don't belong in business. I took paycuts at my last two companies, and still ended up unemployed. No more paycuts. Costs of living are getting too steep and some of us have families to feed. I will find another line of work before I am stuck working in a highly skilled profession before I work for poverty wages. Sooner or later, people like you will wake up and realize, this is a great job, and we
ARE highly skilled and trained professionals and we should be compensated as such. We should
NOT have to work for the same wages as a Home Depot or Lowe's employee, and nor should we ever have to pay for training or subsidize rising fuel costs. Until then, we will continue to be looked down upon and laughed at. MGT will ask for paycuts and concessions, because for years we have given in and to what? Nothing in return, that's what. Our jobs? Don't get me wrong, I love what I am doing, but I can not do it at wages that won't allow me to support my family.
I have no doubt that, even if they post a loss, it will be microscopic compared to the rest of the industry. Even if they will be at a disadvantage, it will be a WAY smaller disadvantage then the rest of us. They just know how to manage in difficult times, unlike most other airlines.
