Maybe he chose NOT to justify it. Neeleman and Kelleher have relatively low salaries but HUGE net worth builders in the form of stock options.

Like I mentioned, his pay worked out to be $12.15 per employee in exchange for steady work for the last 3+ years. Not then what does the IAM charge per month?

I think it sets a very bad example when you ask (or force) ALL of your employees to take a 20% pay cut.....and you -- as the leader of the company and highest paid employee on the payroll -- get to keep 100% of your salary.

He would not/could not have saved all of those jobs had it not been for the sacrifices of those doing the jobs.

No wonder why all of you guys are disgruntled. I'd be disgruntled, too.

Sorry, Bob......I cannot condone this form of "leadership." Doug may not be the most highly respected airline CEO in the industry, but I'm willing to bet that if he expected all of his employees to take a pay cut, he'd be right there in the trenches with them -- if only as a symbolic gesture, and something to give good spin on Media Day.

We haven't had solid leadership here since Colodny or Davis.

Especially Mr. Davis.

Bruce Lakefield at least in my mind demonstrated all of the characteristics required to be a great leader.

As we say in the South, "Do what?" Translation: "Huh?"

Lakefield was nothin' but Bronner's manservant, taking orders from Bubba as the latter sipped Mint Juleps on the Robert Trent Jones Trail. Every time you turned around, the gang in CCY was on an airplane to Alabama kowtowing to him.
