Calling Republic Scabs on Guard

[DiverDriver]

Can we please keep it proffesional out there ladies and gentlemen?

And calling them scabs? They are not flying struck work.

 

[SennaP1]

So they are talking to themselves. I don't think any RAH aircraft listen to "Guard".

Aww, don't ruin their fun!

Just when their iPods are broken.....or stolen by Mesa captains in the security lines

LOL, Sounds like Gojet and Republic are now the same..... lol both flying non struck work, both called scabs......

republic SUCKS!!!

 

[Afixedwing]

At this rate we'll all work for RAH by year's end. Rumor has it they just bought the Yankees. I guess A-Rod is going to be a Teamster.

He's gonna lose his job to a 24 yr old.

He should. Bastard can't play without his 'Roids anyway.

 

[ImbracableCrunk]

Scubs?

 

[Salukipilot4590]

With all this SCAB talk and desensitization going on...I wonder what will happen when someone ACTUALLY scabs...

Lets leave the terminology where it belongs...with real line-crossers!

I guess the " LOL " is because niether of them are actually scabs in the slightest sense.... Pilots at regionals cry if they think somoene is taking " their flying " but will jump for joy if the " new " flying is coming to " their regional " ... its funny to watch this mess, glad i moved on to get pic time elsewhere.

All regional pilots are looked at the same now and before.... nothing new here.


Definitly an LOL moment.

If any children are calling them scabs on any frequency.... the ones doing the name calling are the complete idiots.

RAH guys are caught between a rock and a hard place. They didn't cross a pickett line, but they are flying routes that were flow by Midwest guys that were layed off. If Midwest guys knew ahead of time that they would be replaced by Ultra-Cheap labor they would have struck.
RAH guys just say that "you can't blame me for business decisions of management.....boohoohoo......I'm not a scab" Knowing a lot of guys over there, I know that if there was a strike, they would cross in a nano-second, although, that would be at any airline.
For the sake of the industry, I hope they adjust those payrates on the EMB's.

Here's video photage of RAH management training its pilots to come after Frontier Pilots aggresively.

Wow that's RARE footage, but I guess they did have cameras at the RNC last year.

7500.


Good for 2 or 3 more.

No they aren't scabs, but someone needs to come up with a name that encompasses the essence of "SJS" syndrome and the race to the bottom.


BTW, I think we all have been part of the problem. No relief on SCOPE.

 

[flyslow24]

If RAH had "nothing" to do with the Midwest flying and ...."booo hoooo" they cannot legally do anything about it ... THEN


Why was there no displacements into Milwaukee? It seems that base filled just fine.

Seriously just let it go. Do you expect people not to show? I'm betting that base will be pretty senior too.

How about "Free-fallers" or something?

Something about our free-fall to the bottom....or something.

 

[flyslow24]

Hey I'm not holding onto to the RAH thing. Just don't stand in the terminal and tell me that there is nothing can be done about it when I see people happily flying those routes.

Midwest was acquired for around $450 million and sold for what $30 million? It's been a dying place for a long time now. Frontier will soon be taken over by Southwest in Denver anyways.

You cannot run a successful airline based on employee costs alone anyways...

 

[IslandDriver]

How about "B Scalers" Seems to fit. a major or national stops the flying and some one else picks it up in a nicer newer yet smaller plane ( not by much, IE DC-9, F-100) and flies the route at a "B Scale" pay.

It sucks....one of the stickler points in the failed TA at WN....Scope!

Well, I can't exactly speak to the Captain side of things, but I understand that MCI was staffed primarily by returning furloughed FOs. I don't think they could be reasonably expected to retire their numbers rather than returning to the line after several months biting and clawing for a job in the worst market since The Great Depression. Not without any legal means for refusing the work, anyway. By the time MKE got started, the MidEx labor group had already made it clear that they weren't going to give the RAH pilots a basis for refusal.

Just because you go though life as a moron doesn't mean you are a scab.

Or does it...???

About C or D scale? It's a lot more like it.

Ah'll bet thos redneks kin still spel bedder then yu. We're all in awe of your ability to fly an Airbus. Seriously, what kind of loser cruises Youtube for that "I'll-show-them-regional-idiots" Flightinfo post?

 

[pipejockey]

So what would happen if the rah pilots (and I use that term loosely) just went to management and said they will not fly any Miidwest routes? They can't all get fired, and this would send management a clear message. That pilots are not going to be whipsawed anymore. Flat out refuse to fly them!! But they are mostly 20 something punks over there, living the dream flying 70 seat aircraft for what used to be 35 seat pay 20 years ago. Adjusted for inflation of course. After all, they all think they are going to get their PIC and go to a major. News flash rah kids, if you keep flying bigger and bigger aircraft for less and less pay, not even keeping up with inflation, you won't have a major job to go to! As it stands now, only 30% of current regional pilots will have an opportunity at a major anyway due to more and more flights being done by the puke regionals. Why won't these kids understand?
