It almost seemed to be a prank, performed by greedy employees determined to ruin everyone s three-day weekend. But alas, their plans were ruined by the scheming pilots. I mean no harm toward these passengers. My point is simply that the corporate-owned media has chosen to show us only one side of a story. Performing such a provocative job-action happens to be quite intimidating, as those of us who are union members can attest to.
Few workers choose to strike or call a sick-out unless it is absolutely the last resort.
Granted, these workers aren t exactly starving. However, the tabloids incessant repetition of their salaries suggests, perhaps, that they have no right to complain. 10-Q Report stated, the Company announced that it will. . . That sounds like just enough to pay the Reno pilots and bring them up to union scale. Don t hold your breath.
