ASA Wussies

Here at ASA we like to think, I mean we like too just be! The longer we put it off the longer we keep our jobs!

In 1998, the ASA group was negotiating with a Democratic controlled NMB and an NMB Chairwoman that was a former AFA MEC Chairwoman. We were parked based on our "demands".

I don't want to get into an argument of whether or not the system is "right", but it is what it is. The fact is, the NMB looks at the table positions of each side and how they compare to the industry standard. Whether we like it or not, the industry standard has moved backwards. Again, I don't like it, but that doesn't alter the reality and must be taken into consideration.

If it was all about an "unfriendly NMB", how did these 3 pilot groups get released after little more than HALF the time we have been negotiating?

This from the coalition member who wrote the slogan "We will settle the contract in 90 days or OFFER to resign (if a majority of the pilots ask us to)".

Well, well, looks like you are finally admitting how you planned to do that. CAVE IN and deliver a contract at or below "industry standard". Have you even bothered to go on the website or read ALPA's latest proposals? They're only slightly above "industry standard" now. How much lower should they go? Oh wait, your crew room speech is that we need to undercut all the other airlines (including Skywest) and steal the flying.

ASA pilots, speak up if you would ratify such a contract after a 4+ year fight. I didn't think so.

GUESS THAT'S WHY YOU AND YOUR GIRLFRIEND LOST THE ELECTION IN A LANDSLIDE!!! So now we're getting sour grapes from the LOSER!!!
