Wow, poker face to the end.....for F9ers, it seems the RAH deal ain't so bad after all :) Something of a bad deal is better than nothing from a bad deal...is this the way ya'll do business???
 
And you never posted anything about US/AWA merger I assume?

Metrojet

Don't think I did. Find one and I'll stand corrected.
 
How'd that work out when DAL bought Comair and ASA? Same situation here IMO.

It's called career expectations lady. Any arbitrator would look at that. If the largest thing your airline had was an RJ, it would be placed below everything larger. When ASA and Comair were bought, the smallest thing Delta had was a 737-200, and the biggest thing they had was a BAe-146 (5 allowed) at ASA, and CR7s at Comair, all smaller than the 737-200. Your opinion is WRONG.

General.... worry about your house and boyfriend (OY6). We will worry about our house...this is none of your business.

This is an open forum, and anyone can comment on any subject. If you want your own website where you can control who says what, then create your own. You sound like you are scared to debate anything. You can do it James Carville.

General.... If you spent one quarter of the time you spent on here doing something productive, I bet you would still be a total douschbag. See you in Atlanta. :)
 
Exactly. And the Southwest guys on here are saying this is an "ATL STORY", so it must be a conspiracy from ALPA. CRAZY.......


Bye Bye---General Lee

The story is not from ALPA and definitely not from SWAPA or SWA. It's from one or more of the three former MEC ALPA members who were recalled earlier in the day that the story was released. The ones who so badly wanted the deal tanked that they cost each and every one of their constituents upwards of $1million each. Shame on CJ and AC. Thats why there off line, and on the lam. Ask any AirTran folk on any forum. It's the truth.

Nah, you'll be in Lubbock. If you ever did see me in Atlanta though, caution wake turbulence, I'm on my way to either Rio or Paris. You suck.

Who cares? Those guys got responses from vocal people about not wanting that first crappy offer. If there was a silent majority, that was STUPID. If there wasn't going to be a vote, those silent people should have spoken up. You're still an idiot.

Who cares? The 75% of their group who showed up, in person, probably on a day off, likely commuting in, to vote them out of office for withholding information. Thats who cares. Had they been able to vote via the internet the number would have been near 100%. Next stop... DFR suit against ALPA... ALPA broke. You're still the biggest embarrasment on this forum, and largely responsible for it's increasing irrelevance.

Actually, the actual vote WAS done over the internet.
 
Well, it does speak to the fact that Kelly and the Southwest board promised the regulators that there would be no job losses and consequently if the decision went to arbitration the letter of the law would be followed. Now as a result of the labor difficulties Kelly is experiencing with SWAPA he's " flip-flopping". I think the regulators should revisit the decision and say no merger. Of course then Southwest will probably be forced to furlough with the resultant loss of growth leading to another devaluation of stock. It appears that SWAPA and SW is being controlled by junior members of the seniority list. Airtran with a little management change could come out of this in a better position.

Thanks Chaz Bono. I always hoped you'd be my friend.....NOT. If people did like the first offer, they should have been more vocal. That obviously didn't happen. If they can prove that (lack of responses), then NO BROKE. Kiss your mom Cher for all of us.

What does age have to do with senority? Everyone here knows it has nothing at all to do with it...right? If SWA aquires a small start up with a 23 year old Captain in the number one position on the list shouldn't they be put in the number two position at SWA?[

Not gonna bite. But nice try. :bomb:

Thanks. That ratio system is ridiculous isn't it? But I'm sure you wont bite again.

The people were lied to about the first offer. That's the point. They didn't know hat they should have been more vocal about. Hence the recall. DFR...BROKE.

Labor difficulties?

Don't mistake two pilot groups trying to get the "most" for their own as labor difficulties. If both groups vote it in we will be brothers and will move forward - together.
