Did you understand the context of Kirby's reply? He was asked if the Nicolau would be used after the joint contract. He was correct in answering "NO" because it will be used BEFORE that when the arbitrators put together the APA list and the USAPA (NIC) list.
AOL should press hard for the MOU to be considered a de-facto joint contract. Even though the pay and benefits are deferred until the POR, the east and west are accruing identical pay from a single document. Kirby also said that he would have every right after the POR to begin mixing crews and metal since they would be under the same contract (the MOU which becomes the MTA which USAPA's own literature defines as a contract).
Sorry boys, you flushed your separate ops firewall away with the MOU. Even though you didn't realize it, it was the smartest thing you ignorant klutzes have done in years!
Best idea yet. Just keep reshuffling until everyone is happy and likes the outcome. You are brilliant Dan.
Well I have to go feed my unicorns, i will come on later.
If you are going to tell us the context of Kirby's single word "No" answer then you could at least correctly explain the pleading/leading question that was asked.
I hope Dan was joking here. Reshuffling the deck? Each group agreed to BINDING arbitration, including management. You don't get to reshuffle, sorry. I hope Dan understands that point. If your group agrees to it initially, then you must abide by it. Otherwise, you are a crybaby jackhole.
Bye Bye---General Lee
Then you use the the wrong language when you say "RE"- shuffle-
There is no "RE-" anything. There's the Nic award as the official list from Usair and how that will be shuffled in with APA's list.
General, when I wrote that I wasn't really thinking that they would throw out the nic. I really don't think they can throw out something that has been ruled on in a court. I was just thinking that they all need to realize that it's not possible for all the parties to agree on anything. So just let an arbitrator come up with a new list, (using the nic) build some fences and move on. My shuffling the deck is more of a way to say they need to put the continual legal civil war behind them.
The only legal contract acknowledging the Nic and its applicability is in a contract that will cease to exist, as agreed to by all parties to the new MOU, upon the POR approval. The West asked Kirby to agree that the Nic is effective at the POR, which would of course remove any doubt that the Nic would be merged with the APA list. The West pilot asked a long winded question pleading for Kirby to agree that the Nic will become effective immediately upon the POR but Kirby made it clear nothing was further from the truth. "No." His body language said even more. It was ridiculous to even ask him or attempt to get him to add any credibility to such a notion.
