Anyone catch this little gem.....
A pilot on a layover who is away from his hotel for an extended period of time will check for messages periodically or arrange an alternate method of contact.

Contact on an overnight.... Negative
 
Let your voices be heard LOUDLY at the road shows. Don't ask questions about the TA, just express disappointment at the CNC and mec.

Why wouldn't you want to ask questions? I have plenty of questions. I don't understand why you wouldn't want to here why they did what they did.
 
Im in agreement here, Fortaw is a wise man, and it's my current belief that he knows our group will stand up to this garbage.

The test will be to listen to how the CNC presents the contract on road shows.

No for me, 12yrs ASA

I asked Ed about this. He thinks this is the best we can get now. He doesn't think the company is bluffing on their threats. Give him a call.

Bingo. Another gem so dim, it's worth a NO vote alone.
 
Yes vote here after talking to my reps. Don't like it, but voting yes. The alternative will be worse.

Of course "Ed" has to say that. Like he can tell you what he really thinks. Don't be dense. This isn't that great of a job anyway.

That's all I want to hear, is why they did what they did. As far as the TA, I don't care, I'm voting no. The so-called reps can share the company's doom and gloom all they want, it's all meaningless when most pilots are planning on leaving anyway.

My question to you is why are you willing to give into fear-mongering and go backwards in your career? Stability at a company that is inevitably going to shrink no matter how the vote goes?

Much of the TA isn't even financial, but control for control's sake, such as station contractors making notification and giving additional contact info on overnights in addition to all the controls they force on us now.

They're not threats, they're reality. This company is going to shrink due to economic factors anyway. They're just using that as negotiating capital along the way.

I'm sorry, but I think I have a great job. You've been here almost as long as me. Why have you stayed so long if this isn't a great job?
