US Pilots Labor Discussion

[mikey60]

The make believe test pilot speaks!

So what happened at Lakehurst???

You probably have no idea.

Just to bad you and your family were not on board.

 

[A320 Driver]

Some people confuse courage with being stupid.

I know which one you are.

Too bad you don't take contractual agreements seriously.

What are you afraid of, losing your job?

Probably doing you a favor.

You think I'm a coward because I won't help you steal jobs from West pilots?

You are stupid, and unethical.

I just saw one of the west crews checking in early this morning in MCO. The Captain had a yellow sticker on his personal bag saying "USAPA = SCAB".

If I see that again I'll be reporting it to the Chief Pilot as hate speech, if any of you have it on your bags I'll be kicking you not only off the Jumpseat but also off the aircraft.

I have no problem with your political views here or even in person whether one side or the other but I guarantee you that having that sticker on your bag will get you booted off the aircraft and an event report filed with the Feds.

If you ever board a flight I am working, remove that fake Union Pilot badge backer. I'm offended that you voted in a fake union to steal my job.

The West pilots don't have a single job I'd be interested in. On the other hand, there are quite a few over here THEY would be interested in. Maybe even YOURS.

Wouldn't that be a HOOT!!!

I'm just asking if you are willing to stand by your statement if nothing transpires in seventeen days which is about 3-5 times more than a "few" depending on how one measures such an inexact quantity. What will you tell us if July 1st comes and there is no announcement?

He'll readjust the date.......just like the end-of-the-world preacher!!!! Geez! some people are just plain bored

 

[jetjok1]

No, I really do not know the outcome of LOA 93. The only one who knows that(other than Metro and Johnny Mac) is Kasher, and apparently, he is still working on it. All I can say is I hope and believe we will have a win on it. But who really knows? The merger stuff? Hearing a lot of noise. Know as much as you do factually. You have to remember, they have to get this all squared with all the labor groups, and Congress and regulators. They just don't go out and wing this like Doug Parker does, and then watch everything fall apart. They have to talk to a lot of people and see where it sits. So there are some people who are seriously speculating about something in the air now. Parker? Can't merge anything. 2005 this thing goes back. And as much as Luvn thinks this is some stroke of genius, it is a total fiasco that Parker cannot put it together. Institutional investors just shake their heads, because you can't make money or transact this piece of crap because it is a disjointed stagnant labor cesspool. They can't mix fleets, you can't mix crews. They can't sell it with this. Why would you ever want this? They don't want it, they just cannot get around all the trouble because of what takes place on this board. You cannot put these two groups together with the seniority in dispute. The rest of the industry has consolidated, and you know they want to either break this up, or move it on out because they just don't think it will stand alone for too much longer. So no, I don't have any insider information. Just hearing some spillover from all those parties that are interested. It may all be nothing. You just might find yourself with Jetblue, and USAPA will be the one that is to thank or to blame. Your choice.

Well, let's see... I've been here 27 years. Wanna take a guess how many of those years I've heard merger rumor mongoring? Yep......you guessed it!!! you win the Kupie doll!!!

I don't care about the cactus badge backers or your little cactus 18 pins. You can wear that stuff just like mine.

I won't remove my backer and I guarantee you well have a war if the sticker is there. The east pilots I know won't let you ride.

I'm not interested in using the Jumpseat as a political tool. Neither are the rest.

Your entitled to your opinions and I have no problem with lanyards, backers or pins.

Even bag stickers that reflect your interests in life.

like I said.....have that sticker and you're off.

Had a westi start screaming at me in the PHL terminal when he saw my yellow lanyard. This was in front of pax. If I ever see him in the front end, I'll get off. I'll take my family off. I'll suggest to Pax that they get off. This guy should not be in cockpit. And to think we would ever fly together!

 

[Code Name V]

BS, I take being called a scab VERY seriously. To me it IS hate speech. You are getting pretty predictable. I always know which side of the fence you will fall on. Who is the little girl Mr. A. Fraid?

Driver <_<

Driver,

There is a reason he calls himself 'Traitor'. People like him and CM plus a few others that don't understand the concept of mutual support consistently show their efforts to destroy everyone around them. You are correct, at least they are predictable. They will never come out from their cloak of secrecy behind the web boards as they would eventually be fragged as they deserve.

Too bad we couldn't give them what they want and put them on the West list. At least then they would feel wanted and we would be free of their destructive tactics.

I'm not going to have you remove your Usapa badge backer as Snap suggests if you jumpseat.
I have never kicked an East pilot off the jumpseat for a sticker or badge backer.You said that you are not interested in using the jumpseat as a political tool. In the same post, you say if you have the sticker you are off! I'm confused.

Would you please make a list of approved stickers since they are not listed on the jumpseat briefing card?

Traitor had about 16 years at merger and everone at AW with 6
years or more got put in front of him. About 1300 Westies worth.
Under NIC and the draw down in PHX he will retire in the right seat.

If that were true you would have called 911 (per ucrapa advice) and this would be in the forefront of ucrapa news. On the other hand, one of our west fo's did have an east captain fired last week for doing the very same thing. She had witnesses and a solid case. Got it straight from her - no hearsay.

Funny how ucrapa doesn't put this in the forefront. Let's see if they get him his job back.

You might want to write down a little script so you're prepared when the jumpseater hands you his cell phone with the CP on the other end.

Unless the FOM prohibits it or it's a bonified safety issue you feel like gambling your job over, he'll be sitting on that seat.
