First SLI thread of the day

Except it is Mesaba with the dispute. The 9E MEC isn't trying to do anything, except let us all use class date for DOH. Some apparently want 9E not to use their class date.

As I said before, if that's the case I apologize for the actions of our MEC. I highly doubt that is the case though.

Im not arguing with that. But each airline agreed to the senority lists prior to this going to Bloch. Now someone is showing up to party with a list that wasn't agreed to. These things should have been ironed out before Bloch asked for the lists. Class date, DOH; they are all within a few months of each other. It just seems like the MOU and this should have been done before Bloch asked for them. In other news, we may actually have a worthwhile CEO now. The holiday weekend is approaching, I'm going to spend more of my time being thankful for those that allow us to be free and to choose the lifestyle and jobs that we have

WHy apologize for our MEC, they are fighting over valid points and that will all come out in the end. It is not our MEC who on their own "adjusted" our DOH on our master seniority list. It is not Mesaba who defined what DOH is legally in the ALPA merger policy-we are just as I hear it, playing by the rules, not making them up as we go. You cannot just adjust the date on your badge-your company can, but Pinnacle Airlines themselves will state your DOH is on your badge. was it agreed by all the unions to allow one to just changed their DOH? That will be seen. Will the arbitrator allow the change in DOH? that is up to him

The Pinnacle DOH will be updated on the company id.

Selfish Jackhole. You want to use a different standard of DOH for yourself, to the disadvantage of Pinnacle pilots. Why is parity not appropriate? Why should DOH not be defined the same way for all 3 properties during this important time?

Truly disgusting.

 

[Kaman]

Cannot agree more strongly with the previous post about using the same DOH standard for all 3 pilot groups. I wouldn't think that this would be a big issue, and I know this sounds really corny and old-fashioned, but aren't we all supposed to be ladies and gentlemen in our dealings with our peers?

ALPA merger policy also disallows what Mesaba has proposed for Pinnacle Date of hire.

was it agreed by all the unions to allow one to just changed their DOH?

Yes, it was. Its LOA 2.V in the JCBA which unanimously ratified all three MECs and passed membership ratification by about 90%.

V. Pinnacle Pilots’ Date of Hire Correction
A Pinnacle Pilot who is hired prior to February 18, 2011 shall have his date of hire adjusted to the first day such Pilot commenced training, however, the pilot’s longevity date shall not be adjusted.
