We already know you are a liar, Junebug, thanks to your repeated lies about seeing the Wilson poll results.
Now we know you are dumber than dirt. The rambling summary of NMB procedures you posted is absolute nonsense, and comes after multiple explanations of the correct procedures on this board. It isn't that difficult to grasp, so read carefully:
We need 50% + 1 to trigger a representational election. Got that?
In the representational election, if 50% + 1 cast ballots, then the union that receives the most votes is the winner. Got it?
If USAPA receives 2000 votes and ALPA receives 1700, then USAPA wins. Memorize the following:
If a majority of eligible voters in the craft or class vote for representation, then the organization that receives the majority of the votes cast "wins" the election.
No wonder your bretheren didn't want you in a leadership role. You're not intelligent enough. :down:
Hey tardo, reread my post. We actually agree on something!!
You're a mental giant!!!
And the Wilson poll says you're going to cave!!
Just ask Garland.
BOS Pilots,
Head's up, and you're hearing it first.
In my view:
1. The Rice Committee is going nowhere in formulating a "consensual solution" acceptable to either East or West. They're on square one, and will remain there.
2. As a result of ALPA National's poll of US Airways pilots, Prater, the Executive Council and the Rice Committee now believe that the East pilots have a price at which they can be bribed to accept the Nicolau Award.
3. The AWA Executive Vice President (EVP), representing them on the Executive Council (we don't have an EVP of our own, because some members of our MEC voted for an Atlantic Southeast pilot instead), will be bringing a Resolution before the EC later this month that will force the immediate release of the Nicolau Award.
4. As we on the East are no longer participating in JNC negotiations until we reach Pay Parity with the West, ALPA National may be informing us shortly that they intend to negotiate at the JNC in our behalf.
5. The MEC's decision to not follow through with our "Pay Parity Now" Picketing event at the Company's HQ in Tempe was a huge mistake, and will be viewed by Prater, the EC, the West and Doug Parker as a weakening in our resolve to remain a separate operation with a separate, equivalent value contract (after all, the mover of that Resolution voted against taking our fight to PHX, and the seconder's votes weren't even counted, as he neither showed up nor left his proxy).
I see a sellout coming, and I'm no longer sure who is really for or against it.
As I've told you, not on my watch. If this MEC doesn't have the fighting spirit to meet all comers in stopping the implementation of the Nicolau Award, even in 100 degree heat in PHX, then I belong in a Union who does.
We shall soon see.
Garland
