Brian Wilson Endorses The ASA Coalition!

[FightingIrish]

As for the "stability" issue, the newly elected reps won't take office until March 1. The contract should be completed by then. If newie stepped down the interim rep would have taken office IMMEDIATELY.

Great! Then get it done. I'm glad it will be done before March 1. Although it seems like it will be hard to get done if we aren't meeting.

 

[John Pennekamp]

No I'm not a member of the fab 4. I'm not Berry either, I went to real college with a real football team - not one that wears orange and just "volunteers" to play.

What's that supposed to mean

Second, I didn't know we were voting the current group out. Only one of the current group has announced they are running. The only current member running that I have seen is Farruzzi. Who exactly are they "ousting"?

Considering the animosity between the current MEC leadership and Lynn/Breiling, it's 100% likely that she will lead a recall of the current MEC officers and CNC, then the rest of the committee chairman and volunteers will quit in protest and lack of desire to work for her.

Yes, that would be ousting our current MEC.

You are demonstrating here that you have a very shallow understanding of our MEC and its politics. I would suggest you do your homework before further embarassing yourself.

Just because we're not meeting doesn't mean nothing's happening. Gotta love the Generation X mantra of Instant Gratification!

PLEASE stop talking about these people as the fab 4. There isn't anything FAB about them except they are trying to screw us. It is their way of getting what THEY want. I don't believe they are interested in anyone except their own interests.

Bingo! Their and management's interests.

VOTED IN FAVOR!

Its not instant gratification, they aren't meeting and haven't communicated for some tx now. How are we to get a contract done if you don't communicate? Per the latest MEC fast read, they are still waiting by the phone to see IF the NMB will offer up a proffer of arbitration. Don't hold your breath, you might turn blue. Simply put, we have given the current MEC 4 years w/ moderate results. These end games are asinine and it is tx for change in the MEC. If you don't like LJ, for whatever reason, then don't vote for her and give the others a fair chance.

The Fab 4 is not really the Fab4! They are really the Jackson Five! They are just keeping Little Johnny in the closet until or IF they get elected!

"Simply put, we have given the current MEC 4 years w/ moderate results."

The current MEC says they are following the mandate given them through the polling and surveys. Maybe they are listening to the majority rather than the minority, as it should be!

What mandate will the Jackson 5 follow? Scott Hall told at least one R/T class that Lynn would make a good MEC Chairman! That should answer the first question and many other suspicions about the Jackson 5.

According to people that were here, the pilot group delivered the last contract! Maybe, the sleeping Giant needs to wake up!

YGTBSM! Wanting this to be done after 4+years isn't "instant gratification". I don't think a contract has ever taken as long as this one. I am not looking for "instant gratification", and I am definately not a Gen Xer.

OK Dick, what are their interests? What are your interests? What are my interests? What are the interests of the pilot group?

I can tell you what my primary interest is. That is stopping the transfer of airplanes to Skywest and job protection. Many pilots I talk to say the same thing.

Don't forget SH went to LJ and JB's cabin in the mountains too, for a weekend I heard. Wonder if CV went too? Must have been interesting...lol

VOTED IN FAVOR!

You got that right! The majority, not a self-interest coaliton and their supporters! LJ is scary man (even w/ makeup). For those who are thinking about voting for her when the time comes, ask around to hear what she and her younger, way younger, boyfriend did when they were on the CNC last contract. They basically had a ball on member dues, and I mean a ball!

VOTED IN FAVOR!

I know witness that Brian LeBrecque was on their boat in Cocoa too.

You mean when JB got wasted and passed out on the floor of the Smithsonian? And Lynn thought it was funny? Yes, ladies and gentlemen, meet our next MEC Chairman!

Oh and there's plenty more stories about the two of them to come. Wait til Bizjet writes a few down!

VOTED IN FAVOR!

Have you seen this mandate? I haven't and neither has any other member of the rank and file. I wonder why?

LJ was instrumental in working on our current contract. This contract was, according to many of those here at the DOS, industry leading at that tx. If the only reason you have for not voting for LJ is b/c of what SH may or may not have said in a R/T class then you need to start thinking for yourself.

 

[FightingIrish]

The fab 4 is offering a plan. Agree with or not, at least they have a plan. The opposition (ASARJMAN, Pennekamp, Pogue Mahone, etc.) offer Jerry Springer style personal attacks and status quo. You decide.

 

[Richard Gozinya]

OK, since offering nothing but the threat, I'll go for one at a time. For God's sake, who isn't for the stop of transfering airplanes to Skywest. Boy, that's an easy one. If your not for that, Geezz! How about we have seen what the Leader of the Jackson 4(+1 in the closet), is capable of. They want us to run the white flag up the pole. A cease fire on one side will solve absolutely nothing unless both sides want that. They want us to lay down our weapons, and then let them patrol our streets with their's drawn. Absolutely not. Why go this far just to say, OK we forget about all the stuff NB did while he was in charge, the 3 nap grievence debacle, calling us on our days off and drafting us, and then saying they can't honor this contract(SH) but will(maybe) honor the next one.

Letting your neighbor sh1t in your yard and him saying you should like it because it is the cost of doing business, is no way to live your life. This is about standing up for what you believe in and not just letting people steamroll you. This is the lesson of life that is so blatantly obvious, the other side even gets it.

What's their plan? They said what they WANT to do but NOT HOW THEY WILL ACCOMPLISH IT! If you know something we don't, please spill. HOW WILL THEY ACCOMPLISH THEIR GOALS?
