Heck of a stall tactic if you ask me.

Heck of a stall tactic if you ask me.

Poke your fun! But lets keep it to a minimum and celebrate. For my part, I've never been so happy to say I was wrong. For most of us, the resistance was a defense mechanism to protect ourselves from the shattered hopes we have experienced for years. Before any of you Mesaba types start to criticize, just consider that point. We simply could not allow our hopes to be raised again, only for history to repeat itself. I hope you can understand that much. As for the picket, no one will ever know if it helped, but it certainly did not hurt (obviously). We at Pinnacle have a very battered, beaten and divided membership. Lets move on.

Again, I was wrong. Lets move forward in a positive way.

Thank you to the NC, you guys put in a lot of hours for our collective benefit. Thank you. All the pilots of all three airlines needed some good news and deserve to paid and treated as professionals. Your work is appreciated immensely.

Thank you!

How about this: bite me. I supported you in your fight and have walked with you. You didn't support us. So be it. Now we have a TA, we'll all move forward. But get one thing straight: I, or any other Pinnacle pilot, don't owe you squat!

That all your going to get from me. I said I was wrong. I explained our reluctance to trust our management.

Its going to have to be enough.

Nobody apologized coonass. Guys that don't get the details are usually pretty crappy pilots and exceed in general dooshbaggery.

Also, don't think for one second that this is done somehow because of Mesaba. The company had a legitimate business need for a contract. Nothing more.

 

[RJLoser]

Its done cause we picketed!!!

LOL... that got a laugh, thanks :beer:

 

[Smarta$$]

Well, we picketed, and threatened to picket more, it gets done. Before picket, not done. After picket, done. Before picket, not done. After picket, done. Before picket, not done. After picket, done....

Now, it is obvious that picketing did not prevent a TA.

 

[Snaab]

OK, children- shut up. Let the adults speak.

... Way to go, negotiating committees! I, for one, appreciate your time, effort, and energy put forth into getting this JCBA TA'd. Look forward to seeing it.

STAPLEEEEEEEEEEEE NUMBAAAAAAAA SEVVEEENNNN.......... snap snap snap

The picketing had nothing to do with with us getting a TA. If anything it showed that one side lacked the negotiating experience by allowing the picketing to happen in the first place.

I want to thank all that were involved in getting us this far in getting the TA. I hope that people appreciate the work that was done. I look forward to seeing the summary. Let's keep our heads high so we can move towards SLI.

We were pretty set on picketing. I wouldn't completely blame XJ's lack of experience.

 

[CptMurf]

Im happy this part of the process has completed. Now to see the details. Then deal with SLI. Congrats to our negotiators!

"I hope that people appreciate the work that was done. I look forward to seeing the summary. Let's keep our heads high so we can move towards SLI."

Hard work indeed and thanks to the negotiators but let's keep our heads in the game to critically evaluate if the joint agreement is indeed worthy. A summary is nice but I want to read the source document, With focus on the last sections closed, I.E. compensation, scheduling.
