Hurray for the 1108, The RIFed are back !

umm...you're wrong?

You and I can understand what you wrote, but da19 and scumza will not comprehend what your saying here, not one word of it.

..jb.?

 

[skanza]

Whatever your twisted minds tell you, there are 70 pilots, fired due to the actions of management, and re-hired due to the actions of a UNION (mob as da19 puts it). No matter how you spin it. Those are the facts

No spin here. I do acknowledge that the management did "fire" these and 128 other people. But you can't completely remove the union from the equation as efforts from people like you to disrupt the operation for the union's sake most surely added to customer dissatisfaction.
Maybe that will all change now and everybody (pilots amnd oweners alike) will be happy.

Profracpilot, that was an excellent post. Very accurate, and insightful.

I have stayed in the shadows for the last few months for several reasons. Partly to let our leadership do their work without any more saber rattling on this web site. And also, to be honest, I just didn't care anymore what happened to Flight Options after seeing 70 of our pilots fired. Fired for doing their jobs, and at times, doing the job that others were too afraid of doing, which in turn made them a target. That could have just as easily been me. I was ready to just throw in the towel and let this place die because I just didn't care anymore. But with the new change of management and their willingness to re-float this sinking ship, I am inspired. I am inspired to go the extra mile for the passengers like we use to.

The attitude of our new management is refreshing and invigorating. I am hopeful to be apart of an unprecedented turnaround that will bring this company back to the status it once had. I will do my very best to make that happen, and I know that this new management will give us the tools to get there.

One thing that Skanza said compelled me to break my silence and put my 1 cent in (still can't afford 2). Our new management may be worthy of our trust and devotion, but if we don't learn from history, history can and usually does repeat itself. Due to the abuse we went thru the last few years, if they truly want this company to move forward, it has to be with a CBA. Rest assured they have one. likewise, we will no longer work without one.

I said my piece, and now I can go back in the shadows.

^^^You beat me to it B19...^^^

regurgitating again parrot boy? I'm impressed!

The firing had everything to do with the union and the high cost involved to stagnate the company because it is unable to grow and prosper during the negotiations.

high cost? puhleeze! any company expenses involved were the company uselessly squandering money at F&H. the company stopped the company from growing. the union is simply representing the pilots standing up for their rights.

of course, you wouldn't know about standing up for anything.

 

[waka]

Joining a union isn't standing up for yourself. It is becoming part of a mob.

Standing up for yourself would have been finding a job that matched what you wanted, not forcing those around you to provide what you can't find elsewhere.

again, you have demonstrated that you know nothing about standing up for yourself.

nobody is forcing anything with a union. the union was voted in with a majority vote and an even larger percentage support the union. this is the United States of America and we have rights. I'm sorry that you were too much of a coward to exercise your rights in the past. now you're just an ass kissing sell-out.


like I said, you have yet to answer with anything legitimate.

 

[skanza]

umm..no.

regurgitating again parrot boy? I'm impressed!

Nope. Just agreeing with him as he wrote what I was thinking.

Parrot boy? Really?

Parrot boy? Really?

Yes, really. I call 'em as I see 'em.

 

[Voice Of Reason]

Yes, really. I call 'em as I see 'em.

Are you "seeing" that they always seem to post within minutes of each other? ...likely to pat "themselves" on the back (have them both on ignore but see a zillion "ignored" posts with its many screen names)

Profracpilot, that was an excellent post. Very accurate, and insightful. ...I said my piece, and now I can go back in the shadows.

I agree. I enjoyed both posts--yours, FC, and Pro's. Don't go too far away; it looks like things will continue to be interesting in the months ahead. I'm happy for you that your morale is increasing. Respectful treatment can work wonders! Now if they give you guys the professional compensation and fair work rules you deserve (by merit) things will surely turn around.
