US Pilots Labor Discussion

[BoeingBoy]

We did the right thing...

I think that's the first time I've ever heard being suckered (your word) repeatedly described as doing the right thing....and US took your money just like they told you they would...

Letting the FA's supply the spine or just hoping it'll be infectious???

No need for you to fret yourself over ever catching any such a "virus".

 

[BoeingBoy]

Since I wasn't suckered, as breezy called it, I guess I'm all set....

Yeah, we all get it, you're bragging about "I got mine." We were suckered by the likes of you and H. Norton. Unfortuantely, you barely got LOA93 passed, which protected you retirement while the rest of us took it up our 6's. Way to go.....you're less respected than management because you screwed your brother. At least the West boys haven't gotten that far yet, so you are a wrung below them on the ladder.

I am sure that you don't undertand the way the East pilots are standing together, when all you can do is gloat about how you've got it made......I mean, Parker is taking money out of our pockets each day, treating us like slaves. But you, you took your's with a full disrespect for anyone else. Parker is managing a business, but you are just screwing your brother.

Nothing to brag about....actually, you should be ashamed.

Oh Jim, I'm sure you were so tough when you were here, working on bid closing and flying as capt and all

Remember Jim, these are the same guys that say LOA 93 ain't so bad.

 

[Beancounter]

I'm wondering something. I keep on seeing east pilots say that they chose to save the company. It was my understanding (I may be wrong) that the east refused to negotiate with management and a bankruptcy judge finally imposed a contract. There was no vote it was shoved down the east's throats. Am I wrong here? What happened?

The mere fact that you'd put me in the same sentence with Norton is proof of how wrong you are...but what else is new...

You've been misinformed or mislead. As far as I remember, the IAM is the only group that had the judge approve abrogation but they voted on the company proposal and it passed so technically even their contract wasn't abrogated.

The east pilots ratified concessions (or were "suckered") before the company even filed for abrogation in both bankruptcies. The DB pension was eliminated at the end of the first bankruptcy without a membership vote but the MEC approved that.

Nope, I remember that you and Norton had your hands in each others pockets, playing pocket pool. At least, that's the way you came across on the ALPA webboard.

Regardless of that fact, you have a lot of nerve posting and gloating about how you have yours.

Can you imagine how strongly pilots feel about Wolf leaving with $35 million, tax free? Jim, you are on that short list right behind him, so I would cool it with the bragging.

If not being "suckered" into ratifying every concession that there was a vote on is being "tough", so be it...

Nice to see all the suckers sticking together though...

Making it up as you go again???

Regardless of that fact, you have a lot of nerve posting and gloating about how you have yours.

And again??? You're the only one that claims that I got mine.

Can you imagine how strongly pilots feel about Wolf leaving with $35 million, tax free?

Yet the east pilot group kept right on giving....Gangwal....to Siegel....to Lakefield.....way to show your strong feelings....did you write a sternly worded letter or two also...

Jim, you are on that short list right behind him, so I would cool it with the bragging.

No bragging from me. You keep claiming otherwise, but as usual you're making it up as you go...

Jim

BB and I have had our differences, but I'm sorry breeze, I don't remember him on the side of anything from Norton.

 

[BoeingBoy]

We've definitely had our differences Pi, but thanks.
