ExpressJet - Making the move?

[WarnerNo13]

Maybe at the LCC level, but Homer's description pretty much applies to all TWU regional shops.

If that's true it's up to the members to get their leaders moving and shaking if they aren't doing the job, and if needed, get someone else in there to represent them and make sure the contract is enforced. We are all under the Int'l so there are options.

Doesnt TWU stand for Totally Worthless Union?

They haven't done anything spectacular for us...but I have my fingers crossed (not to mention other bendable appendages). :blush:

Or...you could have just stayed at OO, where they buy the other airlines, not the other way around. And just imagine how high on the list you'd be nowadays.

Some things just weren't meant to be, like me staying in SGU. I'd be up there, but probably hoping I get that next $.25 raise in the next 5 years!

Oh please, you know the pay isnt that bad.

For the work you do there, and the way the non-binding scale is set up to top out after what, 17 years? There's better to be had out there. Although I do fondly recall my $.23 COLA raise! Cokes for everyone!

Im curious... What would I be making now if I would have stayed? My hire date was 6/04.

 

[homerjdispatch]

Looks like you would be at 20.52hr with an increase on your anniversary to $21.01. If you were a trainer you would get a $1 an hr override, if you were ATS or a system controller you would get a $1.50 an hr override.


And dont forget the quarterly bonus. Based on others around your hire date, that would be an additional 400 to 500 a quarter....

 

[propsarebest]

Not bad at all.
I wish I would have stayed.

Top out is at 20 years now. Things change.

Yeah... Thats a negative... Wish we topped out a lot sooner at the same pay... Quicker raise to top out pay....

Come on back... Of course you would start at 15.30 an hr with no raise the first year, but think of how much fun it would be.. NOT!

What's next quarter’s bonus going to be?

 

[XPOO]

About 3% of my quarterly gross. Why? The loss is all ASA not us.

 

[SierraPapa356]

So the OO guys will get it and the EV guys won't?
