411A, you're just a sad wan..r.
You don't even realise what you're saying. And that is making me even happier grounding my aircraft when time comes, at the most minute order from the Unions, simply because I won't let my family and my health down because of people like you. You'll be sorry when that happens because most pilots will realise they have nothing to lose.
You've never been in 737 for 6 days in a row, have you ? You've never gone to bed at midnight and woken up at 4 for take off at 5:30 for a four-legger, and on ?
You must be part of management and I'll be happy to participate in taking your stock down. You'll see, you'll be laughing.
411A : "Airline companies do NOT arrange pilot schedules to suit the employees...'tis to suit the flight schedules. "
It's not a matter of arranging pilot schedules to suit employees, it's a matter of hiring an extra little bit more pilots in order for pressure to release. That will only marginaly hurt profits, hence your stocks, but do you realise how badly hurt your stocks will be when newspapers will headline about thousands of passengers left on the ground ?
