Porter vs AC

[cdnavater]

Take your outdated attitude elsewhere. Pilots have nothing but gains to make up today, not continuing to endlessly pay our dues even further. It's people like you who brought our profession so low.
How dare pilots have options and leverage today

I love how you younger pilots like to blame us older pilots for your lot in life, remember, you accepted the job and the salary was not a secret. Blame us if it makes you feel better but YOU brought the profession low by accepting, we protected our pay and gave you a choice, you chose the path of low wages.
If you all said no and didn’t try and justify your choice, seniority blah blah blah, those wages would have gone up ages ago, just saying.

The boomers running ACPA are the reason our wages are so low lol also again, when an airline pilot needs roommates to afford a roof over their head, somethings clearly wrong.

You sound like the annoying boomer captain in the jazz discord chats

Well, after 911 and the jobs vanished and all there was for 6000 hours was a Navajo job up north for 30,000/yr, instead of taking the job I did something else that paid much better for 3 plus years.
Blaming ACPA is deflecting the blame off yourself for taking the job, this is the problem these days, nobody can accept responsibility for their actions, it’s everyone else’s fault.
A pilot should not need a roommate but if pilots keep taking the job for 56k, where’s the incentive for the company to raise the pay, you do have some leverage and maybe you can’t fix the wrongs of the past but for Christ sake, own your decision to work for peanuts, nobody held a gun to your head dude!
Btw, not on this discord chat, I have heard it’s mostly whiny baby’s complaining how hard done by they are

Todays young pilots are filling the pilot shortage and are well needed. It was the past surplus of pilots that partially led to this situation. It's not for an entry level AC pilot to raise the pay, thats for the union of all the pilots to do by striking.

It was ACPA that have led the membership of AC to the gutters. You can't possibly disagree with that unless you were part of that disdainful cohort. They sold out the rest of the pilot group for their own gains, everyone knows this. And since AC sets the bar, ACPA really sold out all the pilots in Canada. They made the pay scales how lopsided they are today. "Why do pilots even need more pay?" the media says when we strike, "they make 250k or more!" Well because really lots can barely can afford rent or a mortgage. Pilots aren't underpaid in Canada, except for all the junior ones. 250k is boat loads of money especially 10 years ago when that contract was made. They sold out the future generation of pilots voting that contract in.

I can't believe you're taking the side of the guy who called 8865 entitled unprovoked.
