Mark your calendars!

Is the rumor that our negotiators are spending their personal time to attend actually true? I thought it was just more whining about needing volunteers.

Those are all 300 guys. That would mean on a 16 day line where their butts are run ragged and 5+ days of negotiations, these guys are spending at the most 5 or 6 days a month in their own beds. That seems unreasonable.

If actually true, it sounds more like the company is sending a message regarding their expectations for our future. YIKES!

If the negotiating reports are true it's even more frustrating to hear how the company is abusing the process. Dragging them up there under false pretenses since the company just sits there and refuses to consider any and all proposals. Once again, a look at our future.

YES! You negotiators are sacrificing their own time to support the Flex pilots that can't even lift a finger. Flex bid is gone! There isn't enough support for it to remain. The IGM pilots don't even see the train wreck coming .

Maybe if you stopped calling them dbags it might help.

I'll call them slackers.

Haven't I been saying all these things from day1?????

As far as the middle finger shake I would have broke it off

But I'm just angry

BTW, I heard one of our own management team extended his hand to shake a union leaders with just the middle finger extended.

Sounds classy. Who was it?

 

[doh]

Yes, the negotiators have offered, from day one, to take unpaid leave to attend negotiations. Management have refused. They do not want us to have representation. That old, decrepit a**wipe on yammer knows this full well. Yet he perpetuates the lie, saying IBT refuses to allow Flexjet representation at the table. Do not fall for the lie.

7 days and not a damn thing organized. KR is laughing in the face of this union once again. Disgraceful. No Solidarity, no organization, no Offense. Don't ask why netjets has what they got. This is why we have what we have!!!

This will be the Mother of All Missed Opportunities.

Crickets. Well the 1108 seriously FD up that opportunity

Oh well let's move on!!!

Just read a article that Wheels Up is painting their planes in different colors that are the same as the charities that they are donating too. Cancer etc. our planes have the colors of the Notre Dame marching band. So we are a step ahead of them. I think they are copying our idea.

Speaking of paint jobs, the paint on the Phenom 300s isn't holding up. Some of these planes are only 2 years old and I saw one on the ramp that looked horrible. The crew told me that these are expensive paint jobs. I hope they aren't wasting money on paint when that money can be used to increase our QOL. Our customers judge our service by the way they are treated, not by how much you spend on paint.

I saw ND Marching Band on TV yesterday, though, and their uniforms looked great (the football team, not so much). Good to see where KR has his priorities. Enjoy your arbitrated pay (minor) raise, and remember - Employees are the Foundation of a Service Company! So like a good foundation, just lie there quietly and support everything above you.
