Please Stop Striking

picketTo: Spirit Airline Pilots

If you think you're underpaid because the competitor is paying their pilots better... GO WORK FOR THE COMPETITOR. Stop complaining that you don't make enough and do something about it. If you were going hungry, from not having enough hours or enough pay I'd maybe have a smidgen of sympathy for you but I'm aware of how much the industry standard is for your line of work. Frankly, I think you pilots and the unions that are pushing you to this course of action are just being greedy, and if you want your airline to be a healthy competing airline that's success will eventually bring you higher wages, maybe you should earn your raises the old fashioned way; through hard work and innovation. I'm not even a passenger stranded thousands of miles away from home as a result of this selfishness. Imagine for a minute how they must feel.


To: the citizens of Greece

I understand that you're angry. Your gov't has mis-led you along with the rest of the world, but how do you expect brining industry and services to a halt to help your situation? And where exactly do you think the money to maintain your public services are going to come from when your gov't is flat-broke? Elect these guys out of office and start rebuilding from the ground up. Fixing the situation is going to be hard and it's going to require working more hours for less money, but if you want your country back on it's feet that's exactly what you're going to have to do. The citizens of the US are going to have to realize the same thing sooner or later. We can't fix our shared broken world economy without a lot of sweat, tears and sacrifice.


Come back when you're being taken advantage of. When your companies and governments are swimming in surplus, but are still holding back benefits and raises you'll find a sympathetic ear.


To: The Chinese Factory Workers

I'm not talking about you. Keep fighting the real fight. You guys actually know what it's like to be underpaid and taken advantage of.


I'm aware that I do not know everything. If I am wrong and the facts support that I'd like to know so I can correct myself. Please feel free to comment.
