Any real counter-points you have to make, or just more of the usual BS?

Wow you really are drunk! How many ALPO leaders does it take to screw in a light bulb?......All of them!
 
That's what I thought. :rolleyes:
 
Not so fast!

JoeMerchant sais;

"In this case, ALPA was right and the pilots IMO were wrong....They should have taken the deal...which ALPA advocated....."

The TSA Pilot group did not want to give up our right to bargain just to get the jobs! We will never stoop that low! ALPA was not right!

Flying for less just to get the jobs is not our plan. ALPA needs to understand the difference between UNION and NON-UNION.

New pilot groups are formed by companies and then unionized. ALPA should have tried harder to bring GOGET into the association. Instead they let them go Teamsters. Why?

New pilot groups are formed by companies (new and old) looking to profit. They are attempting to lower there cost. Can you blame them?

The issue for us is really, whether or not we want all pilots in the same union and if so how to do it!

Are TSA pilots better off without GoJets being on the same list? GoJets pilots would be ALPA pilots if you guys had taken the deal.....Negotiate the single list first...then improve the pay/workrules.....Otherwise you get neither......
 
And again, I'm forced to agree with Joey. This was badly mishandled by the TSA MEC.
 
A few years ago I was scratching my head over the dues money my union had to spend to defend against a frivolous lawsuit filed by a bunch of booger-eating RJDC losers...who were members of the same union!

It appears as if the Delta pilots may picket the Northwest pilots for their reluctance to accept the DMEC's single list integration plan. Am I reading that
right?

No you're not! This is why you're stuck at comair! I guess this is what happens with a GED education at its finest!
But hey, I see the rjdc spin machine is in full cycle, eh sport?

ATLANTA (AP) -- Delta Air Lines pilots have been granted permits to picket at Northwest Airlines hub airports amid a dispute over seniority between the two airlines' unions that so far has held up a combination of the carriers, according to a memo Tuesday.

Did you ever consider that maybe, just maybe, they're picketing against NWA management?
I realize your dislike for the Delta pilot group as well as a lack of education makes it imposible for your reading comprehension, but having the rjdc spin machine in full runup really coulds your little brain!
Get back to school cmr boy!

I think NWA mgmt is shaking in their boots....

Is Northwest management holding this deal up?

I thought the dispute was because the pilot groups couldn't agree on a list.

Why? The Delta pilots have already struck a deal with management, right?

http://dealbook.blogs.nytimes.com/2...aid-to-strike-deal-ahead-of-northwest-merger/

I think for all practical intents and purposes, Northwest management and Delta management are one and the same now, no?

And since the new management is going to be headquartered in Atlanta, why picket Minneapolis and Detroit?

Look Sunshine, I didn't write the Yahoo copy. I didn't obtain the permits. If your MEC is embarrassing you, why focus your anger on me?

Is the Tourettes flaring up again?

I saw a BA flight crew yesterday and offered my support. Now.... why would I support RJDC pilots that sued me and drained my dues dollar....

Wrong.

No.

For the same reasons we applied for picketing permits at every DAL hub as well. You have to be ready. No?

Interesting.

So why didn't you just have your Northwest brothers procure those permits for you in their own hometown and you could all just picket together?

When Comair was on strike, we got the permits to picket and was joined by pilots from many other carriers on our picket line. Even Delta pilots walked with us until they got their TA, then we never saw them again.
