MDD:
So, is the bean counters happy with the above?
Did they promise profitability and eternal happiness with this round of cutting fat?
Also you mentioned 2 pilot crews on ORD and IAD? Surely you will exceed 8 hours on the Westbound legs in the winter if not year around on those legs?
Don't know about JAR regs, but with FAA we got to carry 3 swinging Richards with more than 8 hours of block time.
More furloughs or fireings based on the new efficiency cuts?
Been there done that in 2003, we took a 23% paycut to save the company, then I took 100% later in the year when I got furloughed....Lean times back then. Got the job back in 07, but no snap-back on the pay, the extra dough ended up in managments pockets for their bonuses.
Now guys are ready to burn the house down and the motto around here is FUPM....F...You, Pay Me.
