ASA Red Arrow Days

[777forever]

Rumor has it, the COO was heard saying they will be back shortly. Anyone heard anything substantial?

There's the usual Vietnam rumblings, but I've also heard CR7 flying outta IAD

Either Speedtape was voted out of office or he interviewed for an MEC position and wasn't selected. Either way it's sour grapes.

No, actually I read the contract. I am tired of hearing about the red arrow days. There is not a contract violation and there is no fix that will come out of a grievance. Would you agree?

Don't waste our dues on grievances without merit.

 

[Speedtape]

So what could have made 'ol Speed so mad to turn on the MEC he supported last month?

I guess it just is not clear to you. My position today, is the same as when that was posted. There is no contract violation. The grievance has no merit.

Nothing substantial, if anything, will result from a grievance with no merit.

That is the message--now and then.

No airline, including this one, will ever staff reserves for the intent of allowing pilots to swap with open time. I heard it right out of the mouth of the VP in the crew lounge about 6 months ago.

 

[Speedtape]

Flipped? Totally. I quote (above) "There is no contract violation".

And your quote is correct.

Was that grievance settled? Or Lost?

 

[Speedtape]

Mark that grievance down as a

LOSER

 

[Tarzan]

Grievance isn't settled. However, go read your contract. Where it says four restricted days, read down a couple more paragraphs. Get back to us about what it says. You won't like it but it will explain why the grievance will fail.

 

[Speedtape]

Has that grievance been settled yet? Not according to many on the ALPA board!

 

[Tarzan]

No.........

 

[ohplease!]

No.........

not yet, BUT! from the mighty MEC, we should be able to get around the issue by "trading trips with other pilots"....awesome idea since if you look at Sked+ you'll see litteraly dozens of trips posted by fellow crew members wanting to give up their wonderful high value trips with plenty of rest on good overnights for your ********************ty trips with min rest on ********************ty overnights.

oh yeah, there also is that hidden button that if you click on it, you can see every trip anyone has on the days you may want/need to trade for. I like that button and use it all the time.

Who really cares about red arrows anyway, theres always a way around them....

Anyone else get junior manned this week?

 

[Speedtape]

I almost did.

 

[COOPERVANE]

[Jack-O-Lantern]

They tried to get me on Sat. They must be reeeeeeeeeeaaaly desperate!!

Apparently, you don't like strong women! Times are changing, baby!


I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again

CHORUS
Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

You can bend but never break me
'cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul
