AirTran pilots

If the line is built with a single CDO then there will be 3 days off. If the line has three but say the 2nd one is CANX then they can still fly you on day three.

We all agree this TA is a POS. Lear has done a great job at disecting it for us. Now how about lets start coming up with fixes that we could all live with.
We could e-mail Lear then he could put a letter togeather for the BOD, if he is welling.

 

[RIDETHELIGHTING]

How about we fix current book at a 15%. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel.

NO TA stickers = removal from trip without pay.
If we all show up with a sticker the co. would have to shut this place down for the day.

Where did you hear this. I need some time off.

 

[captainj]

floy put this on crew track.

 

[B73av8r]

Looks like I will have some time off then. My bag is MINE, not AirTrans.

 

[FIREMAN]

I do not have my FOM with me, but it says something like we can have stikers in good tast and keep to a min. Not anything about union stuff.

 

[ultrarunner]

yeah, the company pretty much controls what an employee can spew when on company time and on company property.

 

[PanPan]

Ya just need a new kinda sticker.

"Just Say No"

to drugs and stuff!

That doesn't refer to the contract, does it?

They may like to think that they can.

 

[Lear70]

Yeah, I just read it in crew trac, and I find it all pretty hypocritical.

"We're going to let the NPA use our offices to conduct PRO-TA campaigns, but you can't discuss it or have your own material in the crew lounge before or after your trips and oh, by the way, even though the "Firm, Focused, Fair" bag tags and stickers have been OK for almost 3 years, you can't have any anti-TA stickers on your bag."

Personally, this smacks of discriminatory practice... Makes you wonder just how bad the company wants this thing to go through if they're willing to risk that?

I like the update on the npa web today highlighting Capt pay. Gee, I wonder what group they are targeting to get their yes votes?

There was a letter in the c.p.'s message board (the one behind locked glass) that had BD's top 10 reasons not to vote for the contract, then a note at the bottom giving 3 reasons why he was wrong. This is allowed?

 

[RIDETHELIGHTING]

Did anyone notice that they took down the FO reps. letter.

 

[boxlunch]

All I can say. That FO is a TOOOOL. I sure don't want such an idiot representing me.

Heyas Lear,

I think this is an RLA violation. Someone needs to call a labor attorney and find out for sure.

If someone wanted to put the rubber to the road, you could get an injuction while it gets hammered out.

Can you guys read? It said no anti OR PRO TA stuff. You should be allowed whatever you want, but post the whole message....be honest about what was posted for crying out loud.

Do you really think that the CPO msg. was directed at both sides of the issue? The company knows that this TA will go down in flames, they don't want passengers and other employee groups to see our obvious displeasure .

Still, be fair about it...post the whole thing if it's going to be posted. NOt just the part you want people to see.

I think most (not all) of the pilots can read between the lines and understand the true intent of that crew msg.
