That's because most are FOs or captains now.

Anotherday

"I go to work with people who are hell bent on seeing this company failing. They would relish it, "

Guess you work on the 9th Floor:ok:

I can say that never in any Airline I've worked have any Pilots ever said or casually hinted they would like the Airline to fail.
What rubbish.

I don't think anyone here wants this place to fail -- very much the opposite.

I do see a very high level of frustration in seeing what was a once great place making very bad decisions at the workers' expense--while continuing to ignore suggestions which can offer hope of recovery. Effectively betting poorly at the track (with some questions as to who actually owns the track) and then expecting folks who actually do things to sacrifice while the powers that be continue their sprees unabated and unchanged (save a few slogans). Folks who work here have a vested interest in success, but remain powerless to help steer the ship away from the icebergs. Most have invested significant portions of their life toward helping the place win only to see such efforts became but a fart in a hurricane compared to what damage those charged to steer the boat can do.

Anotherday,
Imagine the Boeing workers finding their duties had changed, their days off had changed, their contractual benefits had changed and they were told to work longer every time they went to work.
Bet they'd be some big dents!!!

I don't even want that. I simply want said directors and managers to pull their collective heads out and find the obvious cost savings via win-win situations first. Why cut ARAPA when many will gladly leave for bases? Why spend millions on a new Jeppessen CMP and then not turn it on the way it is designed to run? Why have a sickness management crackdown when guys will happily show up for work with a reasonable amount of roster control and (on bases) commutable A days. The low hanging fruit is being skipped. Wake up and smell the 21st century!!!

cxorcist. I think the very questions you ask, and the inexplicable reason why they don't do that should give you the self-evident answers. The management is on a mission to crush our profession. If you can recognise that, then the resolve to resist and agitate against their machinations becomes easier to accept. It's time to fight, not time to 'win'.

Anotherday. What exactly is your agenda? Please, expound.

I don't think he has an agenda, just a firm grip on the reality of how this company deals with labor.
