US Pilots Labor Discussion

[Pi brat]

You are the MESA of the mainline airline industry.

How do you sell that ?

And you are one step above-Mesa Grande. But you are WINNING!

Buh bye.

 

[Pi brat]

Then ask AOL your questions. Instead of throwing darts at various westies and me for not going along with your silly game.

Jim

I did, several pages ago. I'm throwing darts? Really? Just returning fire. Even gave you a compliment.

I hope you get what you deserve. Good luck.

I didn't realize that AOL has an official presence here...let me search the screen names. Nope, no AOL...

"Just returning fire."??? Isn't that what everyone says after taking the first shot then getting return fire...

Me too, thanks! Good luck to you too.

I'm thinking there are a few here that have a real close connection. You don't? Anyway, I wasn't looking for words right out of EF's mouth, just maybe a thought from someone that knew. I explained. If you refuse to see I can't help that.

Being the MESA of Mainline is nothing to be proud of.

You drag everybody down.

Mesa of Mainline

I'm sure you posts make sense to you.......

Sure they do because I don't have anything to hide or ask non-stop ambiguous questions like YOU brat.

Your such an eastie...right up to where you open your mouth or type on a keyboard, you're TOTAL BULLSHIT.

So much to talk about this week because of the DJ, I almost failed to mention.

Kasher is either a complete jerk, or the decision is already out there and it is being hidden from us.

I have no idea so don't presume so.

I explained. If you refuse to see I can't help that.

Yes, that you wanted to know what AOL meant by "the end". If you can't see that only AOL can answer that question I can't help that either.

Technically, Silver's ruling will end the DJ. If that ruling is appealed, it will be a new question - did Silver rule in accordance with the law? So whether Silver "ends" "it" or not is really nothing but a semantic game for dummies - "Duh, what do you mean by the end? Your family tree is pretty straight." A game you love to play as long as you can get your swipes at the westies in.

Technically, Silver's ruling will end the DJ. If that ruling is appealed, it will be a new question - did Silver rule in accordance with the law? Even if the 9th says "No" guess what - it'll go back to Silver to rule using whatever the 9th said the law was. So Silver "ends" "it" either way. What you seem to want is a semantic game for dummies - "Duh, what do you mean by the end? Your family tree is pretty straight." A game you love to play as long as you can get your swipes at the westies in.

The NIC is not on trial and never will be. OTTER

It's a good thing for you it's not OTTER. There is a good reason you people are fighting so desperately to keep the NIC. It's the best deal in town...it would be refreshing if one of you just admitted that.

That's just it, it's not. I moved backwards. You guys, with your nearly liquidated airline, should have been stapled.

And we're not fighting to keep the Nic. You guys are fighting to get rid of it.

Big difference. It would be refreshing for you to admit that.

 

[Move2CLT]

Of course not. But in the end the courts do not "settle" labor agreements. What was that one word the Ninth judge used as to the process, interminable..or something.

If the Government (Courts) want to get involved, they can allow or speed up (?) the bargaining process..mediation, work action, etc by allowing such events to move forward (again..read RLA)

Even in BK, the courts did not impose contracts on us..although some would argue they indeed did by way of a gun to our careers.

What else can I say. I don't think the courts can impose contracts between the parties. We have already seen that as law, guess we will eventually find out if it holds up.

RR

No one out west thinks the courts are going to impose Nic or any part of the contract for that matter.

In fact, that's the last thing we want. What kind I'd predence would that set?

Besides, I'd rather see you guys vote a contract in that has the Nic. It would be justice served.

Pre, Pre, Pre. Gurl,this obsession you have with me is not healthy and has to stop. It's not my fault it took you so long to get hired by a major airline and that your career has sucked. Now from you posts we can clearly see that you don't have much God given talent, but maybe had you applied yourself, or even better, worked on your personality skills, it could have been better. But that is water under the bridge and you will have to live with what you have. Attacking me won't make it better.

I have to give you credit for your tenacity, if not your brains. I'm guessing you did not do too well in school in subjects that required logic or anything more than basic math. Am I right? Because in just about every back and forth between us you have been WRONG.

-My first ride on a 737 was not at the age of 5. Where did you get that?
-From there you did get the simple math right that 5+19=24. But if you start at the wrong point you end at the wrong point. I was not 24 when I got hired.
-One place you got off track was that you assumed the 19 year point was when I got hired at PI. It wasn't, I was a 727 F/E for a year before moving to the 737 right seat. See what happens when you make assumptions without knowing the facts?
-I had more PIC turbine time and more total time than PI required.

As for my Dad helping me get the job, you are absolutely correct. Implying that it was a bad thing is incorrect. My Dad was a highly respected station manager for PI when I got hired. He worked his tail off for PI and PI was the kind of company that remembered that and rewarded it. Part of his hard work involved 6 moves from the time he started until I finally said I wasn't moving anymore at the age of 17. That put me through 6 different schools in 5 cities and for my sister it was 8. When we moved a week before I was to be a freshman in HS I asked him why we had to. He told me that if I wanted to fly for PI one day it would pay off, and it did.

You didn't deserve that explanation, but you were talking about my Dad as if he did something wrong. He didn't. His hard work allowed me an early shot for my hard work to pay off and I paid the company back by being a good employee.

And one last thing pre. I couldn't care less who you are.

🙁

I thought you cared?
Moving day is approaching- looks like the company is no longer treating you guys with Kid gloves.
