[QUOTE="8up, post: 56859"] way back in the day, before we had "Brown Tail" aircraft, we leased our air operation. planes and pilots were rented from Orion Air. the pilots then were happy just to have jobs, coming out of Pan Am, Eastern, Piedmont, Braniff just to mention some of their former employeers. once we painted the shield on those planes, pilot pay went up. it's not as if the success of this company was built upon their hard labor and sweat. we were picking up and delivering air packages long before their paycheck said UPS on it. their tight knit union, no longer Teamsters, has gotten so greedy that they jepordize the livelihood of every other employee in this company. we have division mgrs with 30 yrs of svc. not making as much (base salary) as some of the youngsters with less than half as many years in. so, it's difficult for me to be sympathetic for these starving pilots, when they should be content flying the youngest fleet in the air, great benefits and great pay already.
