If it's who I think it is, then it's not surprising. He's incredibly litigious, but not very bright. He also happens to reside on a certain list of people put together in 1989.

As far as a grievance, I would think that this would go to the dispute resolution panel put together specifically for the SLI, not to the normal system board. That would be two representatives from each group's Merger Committees. I'm sure they'll dismiss it immediately, since it clearly has no merit.

Shocker.

The thing about good ol SWA is that when you become negatively noticed, it becomes a very lonely job. He will lose his case and the respect of ALL crew members. Just like he did in 1989.

One piece of advice, we are all on probation at this company. Too many public floggings to say otherwise. He is REALLY going to hate this place.
 
There are two at SWA now that mentioned they would cross a line and bring doughnuts during the last sec.6. They are not looked at in a favorable light. But then again those types don't give a rats behind either.
 
I'll be glad when all this crap is over and we can move forward as a single group...


Say what you will about the process so far, but the only hope for all of us is to grab the rope and pull in the same direction.

Awesome post Carl. I agree 100%.
 
Some people live for this kind of sh*t. You have to wonder why sometimes. Very Shakespearean I suppose; letter of the law vs spirit of the law. But this person isn't exactly the protagonist. I say get all the legal challenges and BS out of the way now/early so we can move on. It just makes me sad that I can't transition but they let Mr Smarty Pants go instead. Stupid transition was handled terribly FWIW.
 
Let him sue then. SWAPA has a reserve fund of over $12 Million. I am sure this jack wagon has quite a bit less.

That being said the language is air tight. If he wants to bang his head against the wall for sport then I will just sit on the sidelines and enjoy the show.

The "jack wagon" you refer doesn't need a dime if he finds a greedy labor lawyer who will take the case on a contingency. There only has to be one person with deep pockets, that would be the person or entity being sued. That's why so many frivolous lawsuits get filed in this country.
 
DFR lawsuits are incredibly hard to win, so you usually won't find any attorneys willing to take them on a contingency basis. They want their money.

I would think especially in this situation, where his "case" is not only against the interests of every other member (assuming he attempts to sue SWAPA for DFR), but also against the clear intent of the agreement. Ah well, I suppose we'll see what happens.

Just a thought. Since the announcement of the sale of the B717's would that not void or at least open the SL's for amendment and/or changes since much of the agreement was based on the incorporation of the B717?
 
How would it void it???

After you open it up, then what?

Come to SWA and SWAPA and say we want more?
