I see SAPA sends you a letter notifying you of New Hire pay, Long Call reserve, 401k, and 700/900 pay. Funny on the timing of it all. I realize SkyWest hasn't implemented any of this, but it's about to happen I would guess. Congratulations on your hard earned pay raises.
What's so funny about the timing? The ALPA drive is over and SAPA's hands are no longer tied. Seems pretty logical to me. And perhaps since ALPA was voted down, SAPA has recieved a mandate and is hopefully stepping up.
Not to stir the pot or anything, but for what it's worth the implementation of those working condition improvements will be a lot more expeditious under SAPA than it would have been under ALPA (that is if they happened at all.) Once again, not union bashing, just making an observation.

But don't try and tell me it's because of anything you earned.
I don't recall doing so. And you may have a point about ASA for all I know. My point is that I personally had nothing to do with the ASA purchase and contract negotiations, and very little to do with the ALPA vote, and that I will take an increase from $19.25/hr almost any way I can get it. I'm just trying to make a living here.

Implementation, as if the SkyWest pilot group had anything to do with that. You didn't, SAPA didn't. It had everything to do with the Work Rules ASA negotiated and fought for. Had ASA taken a pay cut on the 700/900's pay rate, we would have been about in line with your 1% override. Nothing would have changed. You're Welcome.

New hire pay, for example, is due to change at the first of the year. I think with ALPA we'd have been lucky to see it a year from now.
Anyway, once again, not union bashing, just making an observation.
