Recruitment Is Up
The numbers of applications has increased dramatically since the TA, but there is always roomn for more. There will be no slowdown if what they are seeing continues. I believe it will continue. The domicile program does not seem to have any effect.
Turbo,
As long as we can work together and work for the common good you will find us agreeable. Like YR said, stop tearing down your fellow employees. It is time for you to review the TA, make your decision and vote. Then lets all get to work together. We have a lot of profit to generate and...
It looks to many that the Company came to the table and had met their threshold with an increase in base pay that was from 23% to 30% depending on where you fell in the list. As many pilots are either on bypass pay or have had seniority increases over the years it may not be a straight 23%...
Meant that you do have some good ideas and when feasable they are incorporated into operations. But for every good suggestion, there are ten that do not work out.
Now 200K retro is the funniest thing we have ever heard. I sincerely hope that you do not have debt that you are expecting to...
What cost $61000 (the wage of a 5 year Captain in 1998) would cost $70685.03 in 2005. That same pilot who is now on the 12th year of pay and makes $88,000 has outpaced inflation and realized a net gain in true yearly income of over $18,000 over the past seven years.
These figures are easy...
The Union has the ability to make it end now!
The problem is that you guess. Management is constantly working to improve operations, and there will always be a percentage of sell-offs because it makes economic sense. You Union is basing it's demands on guesses. Use facts and not guesses...
Lockout the Union and bring in pilots who want to work and build a good company? How can a company survive going 400 million in dept just to pay a portion of it's workforce? And the excuse that the Company wastes money doesn't buy it. If it could be easily fixed, it would be.
Funny
BM you are TOOO funny. And you don't seem to get it and understand the logic. Both sides are motivated, or it appears that the COmpany is working to get the Union out of the hole they dug. Now isn't it about time for the MEC toget on with reviewing the books so we can get out of...
What Proof?
Get real and get over it. There was no solid proof. Nothing the ethics investigators found. No paper trail. So there was nothing! They did it all legal and by the book, just like a DNIF or writing up an aircrafct to make sure it is in optimum condition. They didn't do...
Interesting
Gotta say, I heard the same thing when it happened. There is more and it is urban legend and interesting. Can't see why he would have done it and posted it.
Gunfyter - is right.
Gunfyter, I agree with you 100%. This is a cost of doing business and it is the right thing to do. Not all companies feel the same way today. It is good that the company doesn't follow the letter of the law in this case, as there would not be pilots going home in the...
So do you intend to raise management fees? You must look at all the costs associated with management fees as they are the major source of income. Therfore the intelligent thing to do is to look at all the books and understand the cost of all aspects and all income streams. If you just look at...
402 got it wrong
X402 You once again have missed the point. What FAcFriend was saying is the he believes that the MEC UNION Leadership is leading many of the less experience line folks down the primrose path.
It is good that the UNION Leadership is starting to "get it." and move...
The reason for abeyance
The reason for the abeyance is that the MEC has not been bargaining in good faith. Just to say we want another 100 million dollars is not appropiate unless the company has the ability to pay for it. The abeyance give the union two more shots to come to the table and...
"How many times do we have to tell you people that we refused to look at the books that they offered. THE COMPANY REFUSED TO SHOW US THE BOOKS THAT WE REQUESTED TO LOOK AT. Why don't you ask the company what they have to hide by not showing US the books we want? I will tell you......A SH!T LOAD...
