ASA training dept. rumor

[dojetdriver]

Express could have gone on strike if they wanted to.

This is not a serious statement is it?

Gotta hand it to BigPappa for making me laugh multiple times in this thread.

 

[g-code]

Can't we all just get along? Seriously, who cares who bought who? Lets just try to make this place a good and successful place to be.

 

[BigPappa]

Serious? How serious can you be on this board? Anyways, welcome aboard and have a cold one! I voted for SkyConnection. In fact that is all we do anyway! Best fit for a name in my opinion. We don't work for NASA to be Endeavor. The other two names will only devide us more! SKyConnection it is for me.

 

[777forever]

I voted for Sky Connection too

That is NOT the way you would negotiate for a car or house so it shouldn't be how you negotiate for your compensation, work rules, and benefits.

Except that you don't have to work at the car dealership or bank and depend on them to feed your family after you rape them. This is a stupid comparison.

Whoa there BOX, let's not let sense get in the way of a good tirade!

Not just for you Mrs Cockpit, but the point is that it's the dealerships, banks, company's to decide what is acceptable to them. Because like I already said, these being businesses, they will NOT give you ANYTHING unless you negotiate for it. If you pay MRSP on a new vehicle or asking price on a home, they will NOT tell you that you are settling for a good deal for THEM. And they shouldn't! So I say again, this is NOT the way to negotiate.

Do you guys/gal get it now or do I need to draw pretty pictures?

That made absolutely no sense. You're talking about two different kinds of negotiations. Take a business class sometime Mr. Know It All.

Business class? Maybe a negotiations class. You don't go into negotiations by giving away leverage or giving it to the other side. These management people are not all stupid. There is a target zone in which you aim for. It doesn't make any sense to aim below it. How much easier can I spell it out?

I may be wrong but what makes me a know it all and not you? Just because we disagree? Now, THAT doesn't make any sense!

 

[Speedtape]

well heck! lets just be Gojets or Pinnacle.... F this place if they can't treat us better.

I don't care so much about $$$ as I do QOL.

Until we get a contract that does NOT leak like a rusty bucket that keeps us from getting screwed on a simi regular basis, I will not vote for it. If our ASA union goons can't grow a set and get it done, I hope XJ's will.

RES sucks
inefficient use of RES's sucks
DH on last leg no matter the duty time sucks
extensions on the last leg of a 3 or 4 day sucks
waiting until the end of the month for or schedules sucks
screwing around on long delays an hour at a time to keep us sitting RR sucks
the list can go on and on and on and on...

Things could be SOOOO much better with changes that not only would not cost $$$, but would actually SAVE the company $$$ in productive HAPPY (er) workers....

come on ALPA, grow a set and get those scheduling retards out of our lives like you all promised the last time around AND if we voted in this PBS. If you can't get that issue resolved, get the F out of the way and let someone else get it done...

Just curious--are you volunteering?

 

[ohplease!]

Just curious--are you volunteering?

Been there, done that....not this time. Doesn't make my opinion any less valid.

 

[badog]

Who cares, run them separate 'till the doors close. I'll be long gone and to the,
" lifers ", NO MERCY! I dislike Inc., asa, and the pathetic management at the helm. Newhires? RUN. Lifer?s you get what you deserve, (life as contract labor). As a mid-pack capt. I don't really care about the future of this place but weenies like joe have to. Hahaha take that cry babies.

What a $h!th3ad thing to say.......this is the reason the industry sucks.......selfishness. Make the place as good as possible while you are here. Quit just thinking about yourself....Karma has NO MERCY....and you'll get what you deserve.

If it falls apart for preservation of QOL then ok...I can see that, but you are literally wishing harm to your coworkers....sad.

What an A Hole! My guess is this is an XJT guy.

Sounds like Pinnacle is a far better place to be than ASA.

 

[TEXAN AVIATOR]

Does ASA have a training department? I thought y'all sent everything to flight safety. I was told you didn't have one, is that correct? Unless you're talking about the IAH training center.... We have a nice one over here (for now)

 

[centralpilot]

False. FSI facility, but ASA instructors/training staff.

 

[ratherbeflyen]

Someone enlighten me as to what was proposed/happened to spark all this? I get all the emails from mgmt. and union and I'm completely in the dark here.

I personally don't care what anyone anywhere says about who's bigger, better, stronger, faster, smarter, blah blah blah. I'm waiting to see the new negotiated CBA proposal to vote on, until then what difference does it make who says what? If it's a fair equitable contract for everyone, whats wrong with that? Isn't it a little early to get bent out of shape?

 

[General Lee]

What an A Hole! My guess is this is an XJT guy.

Is it because you KNOW you won't be able to leave ASA, and he has confidence that he will? Probably.


Bye Bye---General Lee
