"crew support informer"

[SLUF4]

that's the problem fish and fly-if you don't read this stuff you have no idea what's going on except what you hear from other people. and we know how often that's right.

I don't need an email to tell me whats going on. We have a management team that takes pride in us being understaffed (management lingo= adequately staffed where crewmembers are unable to move days around, reserves are being flown to death, line-holders are calling in sick)

Unless an email comes from BH with a subject line of "sorry we've been screwing with you all, we'll stop now", they can shove the middle management emails up each-others tail pipes.

haha; true dat

....this site belonged to us.....

All your boards are belong to us.

Seriously.. You guys read company emails labeled "crew support informer"?

I don't. I delete them on sight. I feel they serve no purpose other than to agitate the pilot group. Were it possible, I would set up a filter to delete them upon delivery. Don't read his inflammatory and condescending tripe. Your blood pressure will remain low.
I would like to think that eliminating the audience would eliminate the position, but they would find something else for him to do. Maybe manage base swaps or bringing back V1 Magazine.

Isn't papagiorgio better than Willy? THAT guy was a tool!!

But I AM getting sick of the condescending "thanks for everything you little people do every day" sign offs from middle management pukes.

"The Race to the Outhouse" by Willie Makeit and Betty Duzzent

It's a good book.

A contract is only good if it can be defended. The one we have now is not worth the paper it is written on.

Not flame bait but a question in all seriousness....Didn't you guys sign a new contract in early 2008 before all the industries cutbacks were announced, and the regionals were hiring like mad? The regionals were hiring at less than 500 total hours and barely 100 multi at that time. Didn't ASA actually consider paying new hires at 2nd year pay because they were so desperate for people?

In that sort of environment, you guys surely must have been able to get a vastly improved and industry leading contract, were you not? And if not...inexcusable.

I'm sure you're referring to Papasmurf. He is a sleaze for sure. I was more hung up on why he kept using the word "disenable" instead of it's more popular cousin, "disable". That's not even a friggin word.... Papasleaze.. He's a real smart one.

I believe the nickname "Papasmurf" is already taken by one of our pilots. He's actually a pretty good guy. However, if your referring to that tool in the GO, Papasleazio, Papaslut, Papagiorgio are all available and suitable nicknames.

Yes. I know SP and he is a good guy. But this is the internets.

Signed 2007. Take the ATLANTIC SOUTHEAST Airlines contract and match it up against any other out there and I'd say it is a front runner. Certainly not in every department but when matched whole against whole, it is.

But when reading these boards you get the impression we work under Mesa or Pinnacle workrules and that we're furloughing 200 next week, going out of business next month....

Wow,
I told you BH will steal you blind, staffing is just the start. I told you he hates/loves reserves, you will spend more time sitting at the airport doing nothing and if you don't have a contractual limit on the ratio of reserves to line holders, you will find yourselves at 25-35% reserve staffing, the company will hold trips from the schedule and assign them to reserves. Reserves will fly :30 minutes below guarantee and line holders will fly :30 minutes over.
Do you hate BH yet?
You got rid of incompetents for a 1/2 bright Frank Lorenzo wanna be.
