ASA 28-31 Aug contract neg updates?

[AV8700]

What I don't understand is if you negotiate for just 2 days of the 4 scheduled and the NMB says go home, why the hell does it take them a couple weeks to let everyone know what they have decided? It seems they know what their decision is already. Start the clock!

..........and how about a plan B, this is a joke!

Dear NMB,

Thanks for ruining the opening night of college football for me.

Come on guys

Lets hear it for TEAM work guys. Come on you can enjoy the benifits of a new scheduling section. Who needs money? You have been doing just fine on what you have been making, right? Sorry about the pass benifits, wow what a kick in the pants! Bad timing on that one. Look, you commuters will only have to pay like $40 to come and go to work, but dont worry the raise that management is offering should just about cover it!
Why are you guys so hung up on scope if you are the lowest paid nobody would ever want to transfer airplanes! I'm tired of hearing that it's a threat to transfer airplanes, we like to refer to it as remaining competetive! Now go out there and enjoy your holiday weekend!:beer:

ASA pilots.....I think it is time you start questioning the negotiators on BOTH sides of the table.
I just read the companies version of an update. On it they talk about how good the new TA´d scheduling section is!! It would be great but for one word that they added that makes all the differences.
They state the long call short call notification time starts from 1st "ATTEMPTED" call to the pilot.
Since when did Attempted mean we were notified of anything. The current contract states notification as the first verbal communication between the scheduler adn the pilot.....NOT ATTEMPTED contact.
Little things like this are what need to be addressed!!

Read your contract again, it says no such thing about verbal contact. When scheduling leaves you a message, they have started the clock. That is how it is now, not just in the new contract.

WRONG!! It's in a settlement agreement. You need to read all those and the LOA's too. Very important!

If negotiations stopped 2 days early, then why would the mediator schedule "more dates"? They had more days, but chose not to use them.

If they decide to have more dates, then yes, the mediator is siding with management. Hands down.

If the mediator releases us, then he finally saw thru the smog and grew some balls.

I would have the biggest smile on my face if all flights were delayed on Saturday,and there out due to maintenance. I'm trying my best.

There will be no release....

Where. Tell me where, and I'll look it up. I have a friend in scheduling, and I know for a fact they start the time when the message is left on your voicemail.
