Crash pad,
Ok, so since Delta is losing hundreds of millions of dollars each quarter, and since they MAY be filing for bankruptcy in the near future, and even though my company, ASA, is very profitable, I should tell my CNC to go ahead and give in to whatever management wants in our contract including paycuts (from our present contract signed in 1998). Ok, that makes alot of sense.
Lets see Skip, and Chuck and some of those guys make a little sacrifice.
And if you knew anything about our negotiations then you would know that most of what we are fighting for would have very little impact on our airline economically. Most of the changes we want are in areas such as scheduling, vacation, sick leave, etc...
And as far as Mesa or somebody buying us and enforcing paycuts on us or taking our flying, then I say you dont know the solidarity of this pilot group. It would be a very bad day for the shareholders of Mesa, Skywest, or whoever buys us (not to mention big D) when 150 planes get parked overnight.
And as for myself, its pretty sad that my neighbor makes more money than I working at Home Depot than I do after 4 years here. Yep, I can afford a paycut.
Crash Pad, I bet you are one of those guys that have a "WILL FLY FOR FOOD" t-shirt in your closet.
Just my .02$
