ALPA pulling cheap crap

[Stifler's Mom]

No No No, it's all based on a formula of service ceilings, top speeds, and seating capacity. Hence why the ATR pays about the same as a MARTA bus driver.

...which is only about 2-3x as much as the average pilot salary, then!

Say No To Alpo. The Only Thing You Will Get From Them Is A Hotdog. Have You Seen The Salaries At Alpa? They Need Your New Business To Pay For The Extremely High Pay There. Don't Do It.

Have you seen JA's salary at Skyw? He needs you not to vote in a union so he can keep yall flying larger a/c for 200 pay and he can keep his extremely high pay.

BTW, EVERY TWA guy would be working at walmart if it were not for the merger. It wasn't a great deal but better than Chapter 7. Idiot.

Bad news. They ARE working at walmart.

Sounds like you need to go with the Teamsters Local 747.

I think Terrain Terrain is skywest management. Hey, atleast the newhires ate well that night.

Could be grounds for having a successful union vote thrown out by a court. You sure they're doing that? I would think ALPA wouldn't make such a mistake.

It's fact. The company actually sent an email to all pilots alerting them that the "Information Card" was in fact a "yes" petition ballot. I didn't really think alpa would pull a teamsters/DNC stunt like this...

Yep, they tried. I was there. Although I didn't accept a card or any literature, others took some cards with no idea what it really was...

Have you seen the prices of hot dogs recently? with all of the gourmet places now, not just the typical ones.........!

2% is nothing out of my pocket compared to what I would spend on hot dogs per month. Man, I would pay them to let me fly a 90 seater.

Unfortunately, I "DUE".

Ok listen to this,

Alpa is coming around the newhires at Skywest and grilling hotdogs on the first day of their ground school to make a good impression.

Here are some highlights.

-Some MEC from ASA was up here talking about how great ALPA was (really hows that been working out for your guys) he had the retarded nerve to tell the newhires that if ALPA was not voted in at SW that skywest runs the risk of being "stapled" to the bottom of ASAs list "once the two airlines merge. Hey ASA MEC, its a bad idea to come to SLC and threaten new hires (especially, when 90% are x-alpo members) stapled to the bottom of your list, really? hows TWA doing? WATCH YOUR MOUTH!!!

-Asking newhires to fill out "information" cards, when you read the fine print, they are not information cards, they are a petition for ALPA, you dirt bags.

-ASA we will not let a merge happen, no way in hell

-ALPA is a corporation, that favors the majors, its just business.

-Hey other ALPO Pilots, answer this question

NAME A REGIONAL THAT IS ALPA THAT IS DOING GOOD/BETTER THAN SKYWEST, THERE ARE NONE

Alpa will burn Skywest to the ground!!!!

Might I suggest "Nobrain NoBrain" as a replacement for "Terrain Terrain".!!!
