Duane Woerth @CVG

[shamrock]

Saw the big cheese walking the line with Comair pilots today at CVG.

Just goes to show that whoever says ALPA National doesn't care about us Regional peons is just plain wrong!!!!!

 

[CoATP]

Ex-Cheese

 

[DirkkDiggler]

So walking the line now, after being voted out, makes up for all the losses in the regional industry over the last five years?

 

[CA1900]

He was actually just in line for some Panda Express.

Wasn't it Toby Keith who said, "It's a little too much a little too late."

We should chip in and buy a year's supply of Rogaine for outgoing ALPA president Duane Woerthless

Ha ha ha, sip sip sip...mmm that's some high quality kool aid.

Yesterday I received my "Notice of Implemented Terms and Conditions of Employment for Comair Pilots," Agreement. Top pay for a 70 Capt is at $96/hr. I'm truly disgusted right now. I was not around for the strike of 1999. Thank you to those pilots who fought hard for a fair contract back then. I hope we shut this b*tch down!!!!!

 

[Rez O. Lewshun]

Any of you bad asses go to CVG? Any of you go up to Duane and talk tough...?

 

[WildBlue]

Shoot, Rez, you know the answer to that question. Everyone talks tough in the crewroom and behind anonymous aliases.

Most of these guys have never done any work to help their fellow pilots wherever they are. So, it's easy to take pot shots at a guy who put in over 20 years of work either at NW ALPA or as President. Duane had his faults, and I can guarantee that the new guy does too. These same guys will be calling Prater a "sell out" or whatever in a couple years.

Strike happened in 2001. No offense, but I could care less abuot the top-out of the 70 seater, there is like 30 people in the entire company that get/will get that. I'm more insterested the FO-rates...they are taking the biggest hit.

Absolutely, wherever you are working. BRING UP THE FO RATES!

He walked the line, then got in his Cadillac paid for by ALPO and drove to his 5 star hotel. Do you know when Duane's last flight as a line pilot was??? Years and years ago. You are a moron, plain and simple.

 

[shamrock]

I was being sarcastic, dipsh!t.

 

[FlyComAirJets]

And in a related note, a tree fell in the forest.

And, did it make a sound?

Bingo!

That's a ridiculous statement.

What kind of car does the CEO of a multi-million dollar corporation drive on company business? What kind of hotels do the CEOs stay at?

The President of ALPA is the CEO of a large non-profit corporation, and he deserves to be treated as such. If our union is going to compete with management, we need to be on their level to be taken seriously. You may hate Duane for his callousness, but you have to applaud him for running this union like a business and keeping it solvent. We were broke when he took over.

And I promise you that Prater isn't going to drive a Honda and stay at the Holiday Inn Express.

Almost as low as SkyWest's top rate.
Sad.
Hope the negotiations result in something better for you guys.

The issue isn't DW... rather pilots who are so ingnorant and misinformed they feel insulting the only group to help them is appropriate.
