Astar sickout yesterday

If there were furloughs at DHL who would be let go? ABX pilots, Astar pilots, or an equal number of both?

I know ABX had some pilots on furlough before and the pilot group just kept on bidding overtime. That's just wrong.

ABX and Astar are separate companies, and DHL does not dictate furloughs or crew hiring. Astar has a no furlough clause in our contract.

When is DHL going to merge the two?

 

[Joe Pilot]

Looks like Dasburg's lobbying of DHL paid off a few weeks ago. Astar is picking up YYZ, MKE and a few more cities from ABX.

No lobbying was done to get those routes. We had those runs before and now have them again. DHL is just reshuffling the flying again. Sometimes that happens depending on the loads to each city and aircraft type. As far as Mallory reading the flightinfo boards, good for him. He isn't going to see anything that he doesn't already know. He already knows he has lost face with the pilot group and that he is a puppet on a string that Dasburg controls. He can't even put out a memo without it getting cleared by Dasburg. He has no real power. The only committee that he can make any decisions for is the midgets in aviation committee.

Hire and fire

Got a buddy that works at ABX that was in CRM in the last couple of weeks. He told me that his instructor said that DHL absolutely is the final authority whether ABX hires or fires. Talk about control.

GENERAL Mallory,


Why do you insist on being called "general?"

Are you currently a General or a civilian?

Were you a real General or a reserve general?

Do you wear your uniform to the mall or the VFW post?


Let go of the PAST and get over YOURSELF.

p.s. I think I will insist everyone call me "Lieutenant" and correct them if they forget.

GoABX,

LMAO!! I've always thought the same thing. I think if he asks me to call him "General", I'm going to insist that he call me: "Supreme Cavalry LT". I haven't spoken to him myself.

True story from a friend at ABX. "General" Mallory showed up at the dedication ceremony for the new sort center in his Air Force uniform!

Well done gents!

AStar and ABX pilots working together to highjack RJDC's idiot post. So here's the deal. From here on out, whenever this dickhead posts anything regarding ABX/DHL/AStar, we just highjack the crap out of it. We can start a thread on great Clinton Co. fishin holes, BBQ joints, bars on layovers, whatever.

So when ya see him post it'll be a little game we, the DHL pilots, play with his posts. Ya know, kinda like bowling with midgets.

Happy highjacking!

Speaking of fishin' holes...i was out looking for some this weekend. Sad thing is the great state of Ohio wants to charge me 40 bucks to play catch and release...that's BS. I did find some good ones though, maybe I''ll sneak in...

 

[ABXbooger]

As far as drinking holes in ILN, good luck, pretty pathetic. Maybe General M will invite us to the "O" club?

 

[hvydriver]

Hey Booger,

I've been known to wet a line or three. What were you fishing for that requires catch and release?

 

[ABXbooger]

I love to fish, but I can't stand to eat 'em. I enjoy bass fishing and fly fishing for trout. No trout around here, but I'm gonna find some farm ponds that have some fat-ass lunkers. It's more fun to catch 'em two or three times...

 

[Sporto]

Fishing?

Fishing C'mon gents,

Wake up and smell the coffee. It appears that poor performance is being rewarded on the Astar side of things.

2 sickouts and DHL say's hire 9 more to fill the gaps.

ABX Captains making 100K+ in junior man pay alone and YES, thats OVERTIME PAY but DHL still says you are adequately staffed.

WTF is going on at ABX? Maybe the pilots at ABX should fck off because apparently it is rewarded by DHL.

Looks like Rhoid has a new sock puppet. Getting a little testy that nobody's taking his flame bait, too...

Hey LJ, No flame here, just the facts....


It is apparent that there is biased rewards given to Astar vs. ABX on every corner.


You must be a senior FO/Captain and think that you are indespinsabile, Big Mistake.....Trust me, we are all expendable.
