PHL LECP double dipping just like predecessor?

[Twicebaked]

You must have misunderstood what I said...I am saying just what you said! If I am not aloud to pick up more than 6 days..neither should they. If they want to do a 1 day on sat OR a 1 day on Sun ...then so be it. But NOT a 2 day. Then go back to work Mon morning and work all week..no absolutely not. Why cant I pick up a 2 day after being on duty M-F ??

lol......

You know how it is when you get all riiiilllllled up!!!!!

Agreed!!!

If I am NOT physically on a plane during those 5 days, I should be allowed to pick up a trip too!!!

baja , i know your lurking sweety. what's your take?

 

[hula-flyguy]

De ja friggin vu!

Wasn't all that long ago that the same players were trying their hand at character assasination with LA.

Now, all y'all had your vote, voted in WHO YOU WANTED, and now it starts all over again. The only
difference is IT's NOT LA...it's JM. (though that doesn't stop some people at taking pot shots at LA)

You've proven that NO MATTER WHO is voted in, you wont be happy. The only soloution I see is for a few of you on here that complain the most, run for office.

Ok say what JM is doing is true.....you dont have a problem with it? I say he should get an e-line out and explain why he took 4 day trips. See what he has to say then go from there.

He is supposedly on the overfly list for DEC with 155 hours........shame, shame.

Baja does not need to stay in the shadows I am disappointed at the fact that I really felt that John would take a strong handle with Philadelphia. I know that he needs and likes to fly but this is a full time job if it is done correctly. If the company is looking at this they need to know that we as Union Members will finally get accountability. I have never been against the company and found that working with supervisors was incredibly fascinating.Sorry folks you just can not have it all pick a job and do it well.

 

[songbirdstew]

The fact is we spend so much time fighting each other, and the company walks all over us and the contract.

This posting is starting to sound more and more like someone pissed that John took a trip that they wanted or trying to stir the pot and get folk riled up before the elections.



my 2 cents

I started this post because I want to know the truth. PERIOD.
If John IS getting his 105 AFA pay and he is flying ETB trips when he should be in the office then that is a problem and people should know the answer before the upcoming elections.
Folks SHOULD be riled up for the upcoming elections. If John isn't in the office doing his job or is doing exactly what the previous Concil 70 LEC (who got kicked out) did then he should not be re-elected.

Very well said for one time in history let's show Management that they will not be part of who is elected . They will get someone who will not nod but question there intentions. AFA MEC also will attempt tp place people that they are comfortable with too bad we as the dues paying employees need to band together for the best and brightest candidate.

 

[BajaBabe]

Nominations are mailed this Monday the 28 and will be counted february 29. elections open april 3 and counted april 24.

How come our LEC is silent???????

you were the "best and brightest candidate" to bad the local AFA/70 membership is not the brightest...

Because it's a shady operation and they like to keep us in the dark!

 

[NoMoreKoolAid]

I disagree!!!!!

If we (as reserves) have to follow a 24/6 rule so should they.

Can you be on duty Monday thru Friday (5 days) and then pic up a 2 day trip (day 6 and 7)??? NO, you can't!!!!

They should not be able to either....

I totally agree with you Twicebaked.

We went though this with LA. But it's called have privileges...LOL
I have some old emails saved from people passing around when JM took office saying...
He wasn't going to collect more then 105 hrs from AFA but, then he would fly one ETB DUB trip month.

The 24 hr rule should be enforced! Blockholders/Reserves/AFA Reps all a like.

IT'S time for a CHANGE! well lets hope :huh:

 

[NoMoreKoolAid]

Sounds like JM needs to write a check out to the Reserve fund.
155 hrs John ... You should be a shamed of yourself! ( if this is true)

Where's our next meeting?
If and when we do have a meeting...we should pass a motion to stop this unethical practice in PHL.
There are ways of stopping this. I really thought JM would watch his step considering all the sh!t our council went though with Laura.
It's time to man up John!

I think at this point attention needs to be focused on the upcoming elections. The process should start sometime in early February and end in late April.

C'mon people...can't you guys unite, pick an intelligent, honest group to run on a ticket that will unify all the f/as to go up against management. You guys really need an honest to goodness change in leadership.

There will be NO change, if you guys don't VOTE change!!!

You need candidates who will ensure transparency in how they spend your dues, their schedule and dependability, integrity, eithical responsibility and ccountibility to the group!

THIS TIME, DON'T TAKE YOUR EYE OFF THE GOAL; AND THE GOAL IS CHANGE LEADERSHIP AND SO COMES CHANGE IN THE WAY BUSINESS IS CONDUCTED!!!

I write this to you because I still hear from many f/as who e-mail me regarding their utter frustration with their plight and the lack of change specifically when the company is profiting hundred's of millions, and the union is only changing the dues which have risen while all of you are in concessionary contracts.

I've met some pretty unique and hard working, passionate folks based in PHL...they are there, ask them to run. Look among yourselves, its right in front of you!!!

If you make change in leadership in your base, they can put the MECP on notice and the negotiating committee, either change business as usual, or they are out too. You guys have the vote to do it in PHL.

The only base LECPs I trusted in my term was BOS and LGA, and they are still in office. They are your alies and are passionate about the group. I am sure they will assit any newcomers who ask for assistance. And, those bases will unite and be the main f/a group's representatives against those base leaders who fear management, who will be cast to the way side, and this group will go up against managment to FORCE CHANGE and get a joint contract to go nto the future while the profits are coming in.

Trust me guys, its just not that hard to run a local office...its being at the "round table" of the MEC will YOU will make an imprint. Your current leadership in PHL are once again, waiting for the MECP to tell HIM what to do at your local.

Your LECP will just continue the same-old;same-ole and staycompletely under the radar specifically because the election is coming around. He will lie, knive, scheme, and double-talk his way back in office for 3 more years collecting your dues $$$. He will tell you what you want to hear, and in the end...you guys will be at the same old place you are now...no where.

Keep in mind, McCorkey won on less than 300 votes in your base. Support one candidate for LECP to go up against him and unite all your votes. Don't have too many folks run for president, as this will take away from votes to get this sneak out of office.

 

[beachboy]

The word is out I hear. I think this time people are going to do the right thing. I won't advocate any one person yet as I just want passionate and competent leadership.

Not if I have anything to say about it.
