2015 Pilot Discussion.

[Claxon]

Ask Mitch Vasin how he is going to dig out of the hole he is now in. The Phoenix Summit grad has failed miserably at seniority theft 101.

 

[cactusboy53]

And look at all the money they wasted to do that.
WYE RIVER!!!

As they say in the Bud Light commercials from days of yore: WYE ASK WYE (or was that "I think you LIE!"). The WYE RIVER story you tell is a LIE. That makes you a LIAR.

Don't worry about the funds we spent. It will be worth EVERY PENNY, Dorothy.

It's a beautiful day in CLT! The birds are singing, the bees are buzzing & the Nic is Nicking. Big smiles everyone. Big smiles 🙂

 

[cactusboy53]

No Dave. The last one only. You really steered your constituents wrong. This latest scheme will not fly.

Well, we do KNOW that little Stevie's DOH plan with "an industry leading contract" was an EPIC FAIL! So we really haven't steered anyone wrong yet. Let's just see where the contemporaries of Arbitrator Nicolau places you & I.

Remember, this one is REALLY FINAL & BINDING (just like the last one ).

That's funny. I mentioned to Mitch the other day how you bring up his name frequently. Mitch remarked that he pleaded that he was "living rent free in your head".

Rent is going up soon - I'd guess. Big smiles Clax!

 

[Phoenix]

No one knew how Judge Silver would rule (both times) except for the West who knew for certain that USAPA would pay.

Now no one knows how the "new nicolau" arbitration panel will rule, except the West is absolutely certain.

Déjà vu.

East pilots - We want DOH
 
Nicolau - You're not getting DOH, tell me what you really want...
 
East pilots - We want DOH
 
---------------------------------
 
I bet the majority of other Arbitrators don't think Nicolau blundered.  :ninja:

Is that kind of like NIC or NOTHING, you're a real idiot..

Mitch is living NICLESS stuck in PHX.

Except for putting the WB F/O slots senior to the NB Captain slots, I also predicted the exact Nicolau Award.
 
Spin on.

You a legend in your on mind.

Not my story Dave, your own pilots, you should have listened.




"Yes, the East offered the NIC. They just wanted to protect their retirement attrition, which stalled by the change in Age-60. Looking back, that offer must look like a home run to any West pilot right now, but last February the EAST MEC and ALPA couldnt get to first base with it.

Our former MEC and our union leadership played a very high stakes game of poker by not dealing at Wye River. Freund was right, we were risking everything..and right now, it looks like we lost. They need to take responsibility for that."


U-Turn




What's the matter Dave can't handle the truth from your own pilots.









We did it to ourselves, guys.

Dave Blomgren, for the U-Turn

NEXT U-Turn: More details on what we lost and how we lost it.








"Its time to take a good look in the rear-view mirror. If we had a single contract in place, the NIC would also be in place.".............single contract Dave, get it.

.

 

[luvthe9]

Dave you really make yourself look stupid trying to tell us "it will be worth EVERY PENNY".


But you go right on putting that money in Marty's pocket. LMAO!

 

[EastUS1]

You would have to poll them I suppose, but it's an indisputable certainty that the majority of other pilot groups did "question" the nic though, else why have they all insisted on 3 arbitrators ever after? Spin the truth of that, if you even possibly can.

 
Correlation does not imply causation is a phrase used in science and statistics to emphasize that a correlation between two variables does not necessarily imply that one causes the other

 
Sigh...I see now, so all post nic mergers that insisted on a panel of 3 arbs did so simply and entirely as a result of purely whimsical accident and timing? "Hey guys/gals!...The moon's in Taurus, it's wednesday afternoon and my dog bit me this morning, so let's all forever more go with 3 arbs instead of just one these days!".....Seriously? Other phrases often used within the exploration of science and statistics for your reference here: "Total BS"..."Did you even examine the experimental data?"..."You've just flat out GOT to be kidding!", and of course: "That boy could sit under an apple tree forever, and no matter how many fell, or even hit him directly in/upside the head, he'd still never figure this gravity thing out."...much less any laws of motion. 😉

 

[luvthe9]

Get a grip Dave, No NIC ever. The APA placed you right where you should be.

And Traitorjake is the same math genius who insists that another DOH merger won't ever happen because none have come down the pike that way in so many years.
 
I think the phrase is "correlation does not imply causation" comes to mind.  I read that recently somewhere.

As long as you think so Princess. That's all that counts, right?
