JB pilots just got a facial from mgmt.

Quit f#@king whining! You want to trade with the UAL guys?

Or Midwest?

Or Frontier?

Or AA (soon)?

Or ATA?

Or Suncountry?

Or USAir/AWA?

THIS kind of crap really pi$$es me off! You missed your calling by not being an '86 AA hire... TC

Amen, People are being furloughed and some turds are whinig about the raise they just got. This has got to be flamebait

And hey, at least you make yourselves a more attractive merger partner by not having a union. It wouldn't turn out good for you though.

 

[AA767AV8TOR]

A320 failed to mention that the company still backs its no furlough policy as well in this new agreement. Sometimes job security is the best thing you can pull from this agreement in this turbulent times.

Chalk it down to a hard lesson learned from American Airlines – a no-furlough clause is not worth the paper it is written on especially in the coming environment!!

What the F does the environment have to do with what you think you're worth and what does it have to do with organizing? You Frs have absolutely lost it when you talk about a pilot thinking he is worth more is "whining". Esspecially when it's a buy off. They aren't doing the ******************** out of the goodness of their heart. They woudn't offer a no furlough clause UNLESS they felt it couldn't hold up or if they didn't plan on furloughing otherwise. Learn from others mistakes. This game has been played numerous times.

You know what, I don't care anymore. Let's get the union on the property now, lay off about 200-300 pilots, and just be like everybody else.

I bet that's what management has ben telling you guys verbatim. What's the difference between this agreement with a union v without one? Really? Why would you being organized cause them to automatically lay off a few hundred pilots unless they planned on doing it anyway. Why the F couldn't they violate it? It's not binding by the RLA. Go ahead and go for it though. You'll continue to not have any bite to any bark you may have.

And hope you don't merge. Any other group will have their way with you. You'll understand when you could possibly go from your left seat job to hoping you get the bottom of a right seat job. By the time you learn your lesson it will be too late.

Keep running. Just realize that whatever happens to you guys outside of a merger is going to happen anyway whether you organize or not. So you may as well organize.

And you guys are just like everyone else. You just haven't come to realize it yet. What makes you think you guys are special?

 

[airlinepilot]

You can tell the TSA guys and gals because they have a gold badge on their uniforms! Maybe that was the real reason they wanted them......too much confusion with the same uniform.

 

[Pilotbob3]

I don't agree the JB pilots got a bad deal. I am happily surprised at the positive changes in the compensation from both last year and this year.

And yes DeBo....JB pilots are different and special!

 

[Flyer1015]

All other 320 CA (the most senior) got 0%.

What a huge 'thank you!' for your service!
