| 00:00 - 00:05 | Negotiations begin again on Monday |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | so I knew I needed to hurry. |
| 00:07 - 00:10 | I panicked and sent an email |
| 00:11 - 00:16 | to all of the pilots. Not just the new hires, the 777 captains, too. |
| 00:17 - 00:21 | I told them to go to a regional. |
| 00:21 - 00:24 | I did. |
| 00:29 - 00:31 | I did. |
| 00:31 - 00:34 | I hadn't even talked to American or PSA yet. |
| 00:38 - 00:40 | I know. |
| 00:41 - 00:47 | I made the intern and IT guy stay late and work together |
| 00:47 - 00:50 | to make a website real quick |
| 00:50 - 00:56 | so that it looked like a real opportunity. |
| 00:58 - 00:59 | I honestly |
| 00:59 - 01:01 | didn't plan to send it. |
| 01:04 - 01:06 | So then I had to call PSA |
| 01:06 - 01:08 | and kindly ask them |
| 01:13 - 01:14 | if they |
| 01:14 - 01:16 | would mind taking some |
| 01:16 - 01:20 | of our pilots. |
| 01:21 - 01:27 | Naturally, PSA asked who is going to pay the signing bonus. |
| 01:35 - 01:36 | I told them we would |
| 01:36 - 01:39 | use the money we payroll deduct from pilots |
| 01:41 - 01:44 | because, seriously, their expense reports |
| 01:44 - 01:47 | are a mess. It's a real problem, |
| 01:47 - 01:49 | but it increases our margins. |
| 01:50 - 01:53 | Keeps the investors happy. |
| 01:54 - 01:56 | Can you imagine |
| 01:56 - 01:58 | getting hired here |
| 01:58 - 02:02 | and then being told you should go to a regional? |
| 02:05 - 02:07 | It's gold. |
| 02:10 - 02:11 | So good. |
| 02:11 - 02:13 | It's so good. |
| 02:15 - 02:17 | I actually think the NMB will |
| 02:17 - 02:20 | like the idea because those guys hate laborers. |
| 02:21 - 02:28 | All the pilots can do is take a pesky strike vote. |
| 02:29 - 02:30 | A strike vote? |
| 02:30 - 02:32 | A strike vote, yes. |
| 02:36 - 02:39 | Once in a while they picket. |
| 02:40 - 02:42 | They just stand there. |
| 02:50 - 02:55 | Sometimes I feel bad for them. |
| 02:56 - 02:58 | So, what happens next? |
| 02:58 - 03:04 | We wait and see who wants to be a regional pilot again. |
| 03:04 - 03:09 | If you have cargo on your resume you might flow through. |
| 03:09 - 03:11 | What a terrible deal. |
| 03:16 - 03:20 | I almost feel bad, |
| 03:23 - 03:26 | but my ball's in the fairway. |
| 03:31 - 03:36 | I just hope they don't realize they're worth a lot more than that. |
