REJECTED by 83%!

[j3tdr1v3r]

Well done XJT!

 

[IHateDaley]

Anyone know why the Pipe is down?

 

[UnstableAviator]

I heard 91% participation and 83% no?

If so...VERY NICE. That's one strong rejection vote, nice work Expressjet folks!

 

[Freebrd]

For real? Outstanding! Now the yes voters will start pushing for the SKYW TA.

 

[pipi]

Well done, now how do we get rid of the entire MEC?

 

[Knob]

I guess mgt finally found a way to bring our pilot groups even closer....finally some solidarity!

 

[JetLinkin Park]

You're welcome.

NEXT MAN UP.

This is just the beginning.........

 

[Freebrd]

Well done, now how do we get rid of the entire MEC?

Can't happen soon enough! Afterwards we can get rid of that 6 hour credit deal too! Gonna be funny to see Newie in a uniform (prob have to buy bigger sized shirts after all those union meals & drinks lol) and fly the line!

 

[jetstream]

Well done, now how do we get rid of the entire MEC?

Better question is: How do we get rid of ALPA and combine with SKW for an in house union?

 

[Freebrd]

Wonder if CT spit out his morning coffee?

 

[azpilot]

Thank you fellow NO VOTERS! Great day at ExpressJet. Time for new management, new union or at least new MEC and negotiating committee. 3 long years way to go people very proud enough is enough....

 

[Abernathy]

If anything shows how out of touch the union is with our pilot group, I'd say this about sums it up.

 

[jetstream]

Just got my e mail from the JNC. How do I respond and ask them to please stop trying to "help" me?

 

[pipi]

Nah...they had to know this was not going to pass. I think he would have spat his coffee if it had passed...

 

[JetLinkin Park]

Nobody is coming along to save the day for management. Times have changed.

It's time they got on board.

As for ALPA, they have not adequately represented pilots in the regional sector for a long time. I don't claim to have all the answers but we have to receive backing at the national level starting today or they can start adding up how much 4,500 dues paying pilots are gonna affect the bottom line as we exit.....

No more. We stand together. I'm proud of every ASA/XJT pilot today.


EDIT: that's the last time I will refer to the group as ASA/XJT, we have demonstrated beyond a doubt that we are a unified entity. Any lingering division was extinguished by this offer.

 

[Freebrd]

Where's Joe Merchant! Bet he voted NO! lol

 

[Brasilia Pup]

Way to go XJT pilots!

First thing on the list of changes should be that ALPA gets the same MinDay credit that line pilots receive. 6 hours of pay for turning out garbage like that?! WTFO?

The company likes to drag out negotiations on whatever is the current contract. Well, we can play the same game. I'd rather stick with the current contract than take that POS TA. Let's negotiate over the next 5 years like they did with Contract '07.

Congrats guys!

[goahead]

Alright Eagle it's your turn and after you guy vote no we' ll both get better contracts and the whole RJ world will have SCS (Shiny Contract Syndrome) vs SJS!!!

 

[WSurf]

Look..... Look... Over there!!!! It's a PSA Pilot hiding in the bushes!!!!!!! SMH! Nice work XJet! Next drink is on us!

Time to watch Braveheart!

 

[Freebrd]

Not the same thing. There is no threat of shutting down for this vote, which was a huge possibilty in Pinnacle vote. That place was almost shut down based on performance before a vote even happened. Bit you can stroke each others egos I guess. Good work!

 

[robair73]

I voted yes. Next offer will be less.

 

[Freebrd]

Then you can vote yes again, we'll handle the no vote, again!

 

[skyman50]

I voted yes. Next offer will be less.

Not with a vote as loud and sided as this one. Remember this management dealt with a voted down ta before and ASA pilots got a better contract out of it.

 

[flynryan15]

I voted yes. Next offer will be less.

You can't fix stupid!

You can't shutdown when there are no pilots to fly airplanes with. Every regional is struggling to find pilots with the ATP 1500 hr rule.
