Oh brother....

Your union is reporting 10% pay increase. Congrats!

 

[Muppets]

Heard we got SWA +5%... Which now changes the whole argument.... What does SWA bring to the table? "We look forward to stapling you to our asses"...

HAHAHA I love it!

Well it's a cold day in hell today, for sure. Now we get to see what kind of sh!t sandwich our MEC thinks we should swallow. Hate to be a pessimist, but I'm almost afraid of what they deemed acceptable. I pray I'm proved wrong.

Speak for yourself. I'm not willing to settle for less. If we don't get Alaska pay rates Im voting no. Who the hell knows when or if the SW deal will go through. There could be another Ice Age coming or every volacano on the planet could erupt all at the same time. I mean we did get a TA from BMT hell must be freezing over.

Gary Kelly is reportedly willing to walk away if the Critter pilots reject it.

Does it really matter in the big picture? You will be getting SWA at the end and what you get in this contract will not have any bearing on the merger. Even if it takes 2 years to get what SWA has it is a small thing when you look at life itself. In fact, non of this will matter at the end anyway.

Deleted...due to not wanting to write a 100 page thesis on why our group deserves some good news.

Is that because we're gonna die from an impact with your avatar in Dec. 2012?

 

[Boxboy]

I wish you guys the very best!
Just remember this though.... if the words out of your MEC's mouth are, "you are really going to like this", watch out!

I'm just giddy knowing that you'll be slinging gear for some Air Tran pilot for the next 10 years, JUNIOR.............:laugh::laugh:
Oh, and he didn't have to buy his job like you did.
