This may be old news, I've been on vacation and away from the forum. This is all hearsay, however I trust the source.

An IP told me that in one of CT's recent management/leader meetings he was informing the crowd of his intent to have several propaganda sessions with the pilots. (last week) A CP said "With all due respesct (none) you are wasting your time. The pilots have been lied to for their entire careers here and don't believe a thing that you, SH or BL have to say." Then CT told the group that they need to preach management's mantra of how our costs are too high and we can't compete, blah, blah, blah... The afore mentioned CP then asked CT to give them proof in writing first. (Not produced yet) An IP in the meeting then said that the company needs to take care of the line pilots because we are the glue that holds the company together on the front line. It would unravel without us. At this point CT blew a gasket and YELLED that he was tired of hearing this BS and that it was a team effort that kept this place going. (last in everything) He then said that he was PO'ed and the meeting was over and he stormed out. The room erupted in laughter.

I guess the pressure is getting to him. Thanks to the guys that stood up for the pilots.

Unequivocal evidence that the GO has no clue how this airline works.
 
Thanks

Thanks for the updated explanation of CT's blown gasket! Imagine his demeanor when the vote results come back with 98% of the 'gluers' willing to withhold their services should it come down to that...

And Carl Childree was serving Kool-Aid during the meeting. He couldn't see much since his head was in a very dark hole.

Is carl actually old enough to hold an ATP or did he get some sort of exemption?
 
So typical of the transit management we've had since G&J departed the fix. They all believe they know how this airline works but you never see them out here when you're holding on the ramp waiting to park for 30 minutes or more past your arrival time, and you arrived 15 minutes early! Or, waiting for services that cause you to go 15 minutes or more past your departure time. Or, poor passenger assists missing their connecting flight because no one is there to help them. And on and on over the years, it hasn't changed. And I'm starting my 17th year here. So, I voted IN FAVOR. Enough is enough.

Another 'professional manager' from Delta. They focked up DAL and CMR, and now it's ASA's turn. Also heard he received some counseling for this incident, but it may just be hearsay. So, I'm IN FAVOR.

Pilots are the ones throwing the hissy fit. They think the world revolves around them apparently. The fact is however pilots are simply one other cog in the machine. No more important than rampers, dispatchers, fuelers, etc
 
This message is hidden because D'Angelo is on your ignore list.


Poor D'Angelo. Poor Kooter.

They just don't get a lot of attention any more.
 
;)Yeah, if CT thinks it is "HOT" on the seat NOW, just wait until the strike vote comes back with 98% or more! He will be in the bathroom :puke:for fear of his impending job loss due to the fact that he could NOT scare this pilot group into signing a sh@tty contract for "possible growth" airplanes. This mgmnt team is so full of CRAP that their eyes are brown! Nothing but lies, lies, lies!!!

Dang it Metro, quit quoting the likes of idiots like D'ImaHo.

We all know he has no dog in our fight and to hear his other posts he wants us to go under so He and his Comair Bed buddies can take the flying we do for DAL. Yet, he still posts like he cares about our situation like he wants us to bend over to managment like he did. Cause if we all do it then it will make the group of sell outs that he is in that much bigger and he can justify himself by saying we all had to do it just like them.

He is a waste of useful oxygen and space on this ever more crowded earth.

Wow! What a shock that is! Guess those proposed IP pay cuts have his full attention! If the company can lose a company booster like him, they're definately in trouble with the majority of the pilots, except Joe Merchant of course, and his older gf.

VOTED IN FAVOR!

Yep. Which is why King Tutt flipped out. Management is starting to realize how screwed they really are. They now find themselves in a situation they can't get out of cleanly. No matter what happens, their heads will roll at the end.

D' mgt. lo- no ones listening to you any more. How does that make you feel?

Any more? Sheet man, most of us never have bought into their bullsheet. All they continue to do is lie and violate our current agreement. We'll walk out if we have to. It's their call, if JA allows them to even make a call.

VOTED IN FAVOR!

I wouldn't trust that ladder climbing weasel. He was pushing for LJ for MEC Chairman. Kool-Aid stock will tank if he really is weaned off the Company Kool Aid Teat.

I happened to like the guy and respect him. B.S. is not full of bs

He would step in your face with track shoes on to get ahead. He is a nice enough guy but can't be trusted. He like most in management talks out of both sides of their mouth.
