AirTran MEC: Whine on!

[ron burgundy]

Now we have 1700 trannys inbound bringing 54 aircraft...

You're welcome.

 

[ron burgundy]

Oh to the contrary. It's only being awarded to our MCO pilots. Next bid will be awarded to a hire date of 10/18/2010 (post announcement) out of MCO. Therefore skipping all of the senior ATL FO's.

.....

Oh whaaaah....this all was avoidable but ur MEC "saved u fm yourselves", blame them not SWA for running a profitable business....

 

[dicko]

blame them not SWA for running a profitable business....

Drunk Yoda ?

That dumb decision has nothing to do with it. Management still hasn't followed any agreements so far except to not pay the AirTran side swa wages. I don't see how it would be any different.

 

[madjack]

You have a job...

This message is hidden because madjack is on your ignore list.

Wacky_Jack, You got what you wanted, an AirTran Captain's seat . . .Why don't you spend a little more time enjoying it, and a lot less time here?

:laugh:

 

[madjack]

[madjack]

U trannys come on here whining about broken promises, but u take no responsibility for taking $$ fm ur fellow pilots...what a bunch of BS

87% of my fellow pilots cost me 3 years and 10 months seniority. I really haven't concerned my self with them not getting pay they didn't have before, which I therefor didn't take, unlike the seniority I had, which they gave away.

 

[madjack]

That's big of you, but taking food off ur fellow pilots table is not ur call

I guess this is why Southwest is slowly trying to eliminate the 1,2,3 rule. Some people just can't handle their liquor......

 

[Ty Webb]

Wacky Jack doesn't like OAK reserve, but his wife sure does.

 

[madjack]

Stay classy, right.

We had a 2&1/2 year break from hiring after fall '08 hires-
The last guy hired in '08 has almost identical seniority as the pilots hired in jan'11.

PCL- met somebody else who has usair east disease. ^^^^

What you had was a seniority integration based on a lot of factors, date of hire being only one of at least a half dozen. Not insignificant, but not the end all either.

In any case "losing xxx years of seniority" is never a statement that makes sense.

Airtran seniority wasn't going to equal SW seniority. Did you really think otherwise?

I was in favor of arbitration, at least then I wouldn't be pissed at my future employer and current and future co-workers.

Well, at least you finally got something right. Seniority is measured in relative percentage, not in years. Hence why we are so pissed off at how much seniority we lost.

Why would you be pissed? You've never planned on coming over. Please don't tell me you're having a change of heart.
