[QUOTE="susiedriver, post: 72437, member: 1848"] worldwide, If GM fails, someone will take their palce, likewise with Target. We will haul the frieght for whomever is out there. I don't see how you can equate the DOW being off one-tenth of one percent with our being off nearly a full two percent, and most of that loss coming on the heels of the IPA announcement. As far as the pilots working as line haulers in our most profitable division, I would say they are a bit different than feeder drivers or package drivers. Not so easily replaced and a bit more highly trained. All I'm saying is that they should be the highest paid in their field, just as feeder drivers and package car drivers are. Everyone knows that it is a team effort to grow the business, but the pilots shouldn't have to work at a discount. PS- I never said that you said all hourly are over paid. I quite clearly put in the qualifier of 'probably'. You evidently don't feel as if the pilots are due an increase in compensation, in spite of having a severely outdated contract, and sacrificing compensation during the growth period of the airline. Don't you think that if the IPA had announced an agreement today we would have seen 2% on the upside instead of in the red? [/QUOTE]
