US Pilots Labor Discussion

[mrbreeze]

Found it breeze. Your solution was pretty damn stupid! A letter?

How asinine.

Asinine? LOL......just trying to give you guys something to think about.

Like I said in my previous post....I have made my point and will drop the subject. I do think you guys need to give it some thought, though.

After a long day, I am headed to bed. Good luck, gentlemen.

We'll pass.

Good night.

God damn that's stupid.

Really, really stupid.

And just dripping with east greed. Gee what a surprise.

You have a foul mouth...

Why can't you communicate without the "colorful metaphors" ?

 

[luvn737s]

No, traitor, it's a truthful look at where things really sit at this point in time. Silver can change that, but if she does rule in favor of the NIC.....what happens next?

51% of the pilots vote "YES WE WANT MORE MONEY" and tell the AFO's to ----off! 5 years too late if you ask me.

 

[john john]

That's an easy one. Honor your agreements.

So I can take your spot on the A330

 

[luvn737s]

Regardless of all this......Parker is a deal maker. He has the ability to strike a deal with each pilot group and withdraw the DJ.

Did you get the memo that there is only one pilot group? He struck a deal before called the Transition Agreement. The west complied to the letter. The east cried like children and threw a tantrum called USAPA. Who would waste their time making a deal with a group like that?

The only option the east has for postponing the NIC is voting down more and more money. You say you're united, but it's proven that you don't have the will to vote against your own interests, which for the majority of the east is money. The hew and cry will go up from the AFO contingent, but the sympathy bucket is empty. You can thank your yellow-lanyard pals who got you slapped with an injunction for that.

The GPWS is blaring for DOH, "Terrain, terrain, terr-"

No, so you can have a contract that makes flying that A330 worth something.

How many west pilots went to Delta with the slot swap

The Nic is carved in stone breeze.

You mean soapstone, 😛 How's it working for you?

Probably about as well as LOA93 does for you, except that he made about 20-30k more than you did last year. How's that working out for you?

How many of those do you have? That few, eh? And they pay that little, eh?

Maybe the west BPR folks could develop a Reality Boot Camp out west this summer where you east folks could come to exchange their Star-Struck "I'm gonna fly a 330" persona for one that's alittle more realistic and in the process become productive members of society. We'll call it Camp Nic-O-Now.

I'm sure that if he wanted to, he could communicate without the "colorful metaphors". (Which, by the way, are not metaphors, just "colorful" adjectives and nouns.) I think though, that he probably says exactly what a lot of us are thinking, except that we just filter it a bit before putting it out to the public in print. I also believe that a fairly large contingent of forum participants actually prefer the verbal fireworks. It's more like entertainment or cheap therapy. It's not like anybody is really going to change someone's world view on here. Although I may be wrong about changing other's perceptions, as evidenced by Mr Breeze's conversations last night. Albeit, any such change in a so strongly held personal paradigm typically either occurs at the speed of a glacier or as a result of catastrophic or monumental life events. Nevertheless, it was interesting to watch the metaphorical "light bulb" momentarily illuminate, flicker a few times and then extinguish for the evening. I assume that most of the non-vocal East majority holds to much the same perception of events of the last five years, and that is why we find ourselves having to reaffirm repeatedly in court, what to most observers appears obvious.

Still whining about another man's pay.....very sad.
