Ask the applicants. It seems Johnny O. has cracked the code. Known as one who couldn't care less about his employees, he said the reason he doesn't increase pay or benefits is because he has more applicants for classes than he has slots. And I guess a lot of people think the rewards (monetary and non-monetary) are worth it. From what I read here on the board and from talking to friends still in the airlines, I am quite happy to be off the line. I miss the exchange and miss some of the flying but the constant chatter from the union, the toadies who are called Chief Pilots but are little more than company megaphones, the corp memos about 'more with less'... don't miss that in the least.

I'm sure most of their constituents would love to pay $900 to go from Denver to Cheyenne. Too bad those morons haven't figured out the world does revolve around pilots. Didn't they see top gun?
