Re: Expressjet & ALPA Reach Tentative Concessionary Agreemen
You crack me up. Clearly a new regional jet FO with a pseudo MBA has sized me up, lol. How about you come with some more sarcastic comments that prove you don't know what you're talking about. Usually when one resorts to name calling, which I have not, they lose credibility.
So what period is the U.S. in right now? I'd say it's worse than 9/11.
Banks are falling left and right, house foreclosures are at an all time high, the wonderful socialistic government we have wants 700 billion to bail out a few inept companies, the Dow Jones is down around 25.5% (3600 points) since 10/08/07. The year long decline in the economy is nothing to laugh at. 9/11 caused a Dow Jones drop of around 14.3% (1370 points). Less than 60 days (11/09/07) later it was back above of 09/10's close of 9605 points.
I'll give you one thing, I admire your conviction for labor. Not that I think pilots are worth nothing, but Xjet pilots have zero leverage right now. If the economy were different and their management had a brain, then they might have a leg to stand on. But they don't.
Okay stuckingfk, you clearly have out lasted me. You win Champ.
Yes, Delta pilots took huge paycuts, and lost A LOT to help the company. Following one of our nation's most darkest periods in our recent history.
Totally different situation that a company that is bleeding cash because of a poor business venture that proved to be unsustainable.
But sure, draw the parallel all night. I'm off to bed. Good Game Champ.
