AirTran MEC: Whine on!

[Luv2BFlyin]

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......

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.

I'm only leaving because of the lost seniority, Sherlock.

Good, can u convince the others?

"Some are pissed over lost seniority" But all are happy to be employed... as voted on and approved by 83% of the membership. (he forgot to add)

 

[DUBLINFLYER]

You can always leave and go to any of the other airlines - obtw you will be at the bottom of their seniority list unless you buy your own airline

 

[maxblast72]

Dam, that is twice in one month I agree with you. However, 90% of our pilots will spit out years and months if you ask them how much seniority they lost.

As Dan Katz and Jeff Freund have both argued at various points in their careers, a DOH only has value within one's particular airline. For example, a 1999 DOH at United has a much different value and career expectations than a 1999 DOH at Continental.

Maybe he will go back to Gulfstream? Or is it Silver now?

An added bonus of SIA 2, Watson.

 

[EngineThunder]

Will mom and dad front him the money a second time?

 

[ATLplt]

Not a chance, jack-off. The more you post, the more I wanna stay.

 

[madjack]

If ur MEC had let u vote on the first AIP, we wouldn't be having this "conversation"...

 

[madjack]

U trannys need to face ur own mistakes and quit blaming everyone else for ur current problems...

Sit back and enjoy your ill gotten gains Jack. You're like a guy who steals an old ladies loaf of bread, then tazes her for not keeping a firm grip on it.

It's unseemly and undignified.

You need to relax and not worry so much about us Trannys'. Maybe get some fresh air outside of the crash pad and go for a jog around beautiful Oakland, preferably at night.

 

[madjack]

I'll gotten gains, pot meet kettle

 

[doh]

WTF is an "I'll gotten gain"?

 

[Phlintstone]

Madjack is on ignore but I am sure he is still doing this over the whole deal...

Okay,...

"Tazing an old lady" may be a LITTLE of a stretch in the analogy department...

I would have voted NO then as well. This isn't a conversation. It's a b!tchfest between two obviously disgruntled groups...possibly therapy for some. Many, from both sides, actually have constructive comments to add. You? Not so much. It's like the old "Where's the beef?", Wendy's commercial. All I hear from you is cheese.

Perhaps, and I appreciate the input.

I started out with "abusing" but thought it might be misunderstood. Then went with "beating", but didn't think it would be practical for Mad Jack. Settled on "tazing".
