union thuggery IS reality.

Thuggery I define as bodily harm of some nature. You get on a scab list, denying you a jumpseat is not bodily harm. So, suffice to say, I dare you as well. Good luck in your endeavors. I hope you gain all that you seek. Cross that picket line and most people will agree your career is over.

I have only one thing to say to all of the Skywest folks on here raving about there company funded "union". Where was SAPA when Jerry told you that you were now going to fly 900's for 200 rates? Wasn't that a promise made by the company that was broken? For all of you out there flying the 700 for a 200 rate you have paid a whole lot more than 2%. Go ahead and try to defend that.
 
And you seem to prove time and time again that you are not an EMBARASSMENT to ASA as well...Love your language.

TOO FUNNY

Once again, incorrect information. Although I'm still pissed at the 18 month agreement that was agreed to 3.5 years ago. It was agreed to by the pilot group. Not shoved down our throats by Jerry. I'm sure that the pilots who voted yes have their reasons (probably the FACT that all FOs that were here back then have all been able to upgrade quickly = pay raise/1000 PIC = new job). We were never told that there would be any pay raise for larger (50-99, and 100-150 seats respectively) aircraft, but it was strongly implied and bit upon by this pilot group to the tone of about 62%. Saddly, in that time I have probably been paid more (per W-2) flying the 200 for SkyWest than most if not all of ASA's 700 pilots with similar seniority. Oh yeah, especially with ASA's donation of 2% to ALPA. Sorry to point out facts.

Now for my opinionated side. Stop giving the SkyWest pilots crap. I have yet to fly with or know any SkyWest pilots who do not fully support our new co-workers at ASA. I know of no one who will cross the picket line (I will be fired before scabbing). I know of no one who thinks staple is the only way to intergrate pilot lists. ASA pilots fear the non-union pilots of SkyWest due to ALPA Kool-Aid and fear tactics and your well deserved distrust of management. Just stop for a moment and think for yourself before trashing next time. The SkyWest pilots are not the enemy you want us to be.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, as I cannot find any hard literature to back this up, but I thought that our (ASA) company was not to be integrated into Skywest at the request of Delta as part of the sale. From my understanding, we were to remain separate. As someone told me- Delta needed cash for bankruptcy, and they used ASA as collateral. Any imput????
 
To be fair, neither JA nor BH promised anything other than ask to be dealt an ACE. Sadly, the hard sell, the promise of 18 months, and the push to convince the FNG's were made by a couple of SAPA reps with management aspirations.
