How many got hired and quit at Pinnacolaba in the past week?

[bri5150]

Yeah, but two came to us, which is going right back to them. I didn't count those.

 

[dingo222]

list? We don't need no stinking list.................

Stay tuned to next season's "regional airline SLI" . Nice cliffhanger Bloch.

So you were paying dues 9 months after your first day of class? That's an error- did you ever call anyone about it?

Everyone at Pinnacle paid em, check your pay stubs if you have them.

 

[ChickenSled]

Why would I say that? I don't think it. I think we should all have a fair integration. I like them a hell of a lot more than Pinnacle at this point. I think Colgan pilots were treated like crap and at least they aren't going around spouting off about how they deserve this or that because they are growing. I don't think I have heard from a single Colgan pilot on this issue. I am also almost certain I will have a Colgan pilot hired after me above me on the list. Not sure how that couldn't happen.

Oh you said it. Hope you keep your CA seat, but sources say you don't actually have that.

If I already said it, why did you want me to say it? And you know Mr. Bloch and my seniority number? At least Flyer tries to get under our skin. You just make random remarks that make no sense.

Give it a little while, it will make sense later.

Mine came out 12 months after class date. Insult to injury while on 1st year pay.

Yep. I will sue ALPA if XJ pulls their coup.

The interesting question is what happens if the SLI comes out past 4 Jun?

 

[afpilotselect]

Here is an idea everyone. Go drink a beer or 5 and settle the f#@ down!

Just so I'm clear... You dues were taken out prematurely, but you didn't think it was a big deal at the time. Because it didn't amount to much money. Now years later, your going to sue if you don't get a refund, because you lost 6 weeks or so of seniority, which was never considered your date of hire.

It is 11 weeks.

 

[CptMurf]

It is 11 weeks.

Good luck with it.

 

[ChickenSled]

Murph, I have respected your opinion till now, but do you really feel right with me losing almost 3 months of seniority?

You aren't losing it. You just aren't gaining it.

Honestly. I can see both sides of the argument. Both are valid, and neither is right or wrong. I believe it is just the committees playing hardball. Your committee has thrown out just as many punches in this fight. In the end I believe LOAv2 will stand. I don't believe your lawsuit will.

No, if you started class on the 5th and I started on the 1st, and my hire date is the 29th and yours is the 20th, something is wrong.

I'm pretty sure ALPA will try to settle with me, since anyone with a brain can figure it out.

Still, you didn't answer my question, Is it OK for me to loose seniority because I went' to Pinnacle instead of Mesaba? I did have offers from both, I chose to live in base.

Unless you were hired in the last year we both had the SAME bases...

I understand the problem, but you need to understand that you were not considered an employee during this training. It has been the accepted process for a long time, and everyone on property either voted for it or accepted it by taking the job. The '99 agreement allowed it and there was never an LOA or MOU to allow a change to the CBA. The money received, as far as I know was never defined, but dispersed as a stipend or Per Diem. That is not income, but a reimbursement. If it weren't for LOAv2, I don't think you would have a leg to stand on here. Now considering the LOA was negotiated and ratified by all the collective members, I believe it will hold.

In your theoretical situation, you stated if the LOAv2 is not honored, you will sue. They might toss you the what, $100 and settle. But they might laugh you all the way into some deep attorney bills. If there was a discrepancy, you should have brought it up then.

You didn't lose it. You gave it away by taking the job. Hopefully for you LOAv2 may give some of it back. (still missing longevity for pay)
