With your lack of knowledge of the contract and a dickhead comment like that you must work for ASA. ASA stocks DB's like they are going out of style(No, not Corners or Safeties either).
I think ASA's captain rates are "crappy". In Mesaba's concessionary contract our 50 seat CA's made more money that ASA 70 seat CA's. By December 1, 2012 All of the Q CA's and FO's will make more than their ASA 70 seat counter parts. So in 20 months all these people that work for "crappy" rates will be out earning you in a slow little turbo prop maybe find out what the real deal is. Instead of me just calling parts of your contract crap I ask you to get off your ASA high horse and do a little research and smile or say "hi" when some one walks by and is trying to be nice. Believe it or not ASA isn't the end all of regional airlines.
Remember to
. I'm just really happy right now, I'm flying a little under 60 hours for the month of March, but will be crediting in the 120's! I purposely bid for my sim, and my 3 days of recurrent ground on my days off. I also have one week vacation that was worth 21 hours. My sim got cancelled to put someone who was going to dequal in instead of me, and wait, I get cancellation pay!! On those 2 days I would have been on the sim, on top of my cancellation pay, I picked up 2 day trips. I'm crediting a little under 20 hours for two day trips. This is the first time I've had a contract, and the soft pay and min day is racking up big time for me. I have no idea what other airlines soft pays come out to be, but man, life is good. And the number one quality of life increase for me is NO MORE COMMUTING!!!! CJC growing in IAH is a dream come true!!
