Im Ready, UNION AT FLEX

[GlorifiedCabbie]

The OCC in CGF has been remodeled. The customer service area has been expanded and the board shows the Flex aircraft. Now if they could only fix the sewage problem when they get a heavy rain.

The customer service at Flex has over 70 people. That will have to be cut and the work will be shifted to CGF and the pilots.

Are these the Flex offices that they are trying to lease out?

Holy cow... at 52k SF on a single space that would have to be Flexjet

I looked on same site and saw 5 other spaces for 1k-8k SF but this is the largest single parcel.

I guess it's true and everything is moving to Cleveland. Ricci kept claiming he moved on from single operation blueprint but that would appear to be an outright lie with this information.

Did you expect anything less, on the move to KCGF that is? This is RTA all over again

The sewage problem is internally generated, a dry spell won't help.

Anyone surprised by this move hasn't been paying attention. Say one thing, then do another has been the order of the day for quite some time.

KR had his chance to do what he said, instead we're going a different route.

You guys are giving the snake oil salesman far too much credit. He has already openly admitted on ain that the union is defeated and they don't have enough votes. Personally I don't know who he convinced to get the deal done to get you guys. I am still awestruck by that one. Revisionary history. That is the buzz woe for me this year. I called that three years ago when little Napoleon retold his version about getting his ass thrown off property for not repaying his debt to Raytheon. So some of you might be asking where do we go from here? I would like to think that we are smart enough to combine our resources instead of knocking off the last real player, net jets with substandard working and pay conditions. Little Ricky might have control of the assets, but he sure as hell doesn't have control of either pilot group. What's it gonna be? Further our profession or destroy it to work under tyranny?

Guys and gals it is time to rise to the occasion . Let's get ken and RH packing . Secure your benefits pay and work conditions for your families . Vote in the union now don't wait another day . Don't get fired and have no recourse. I told my wife long time ago that I would stand for the truth or get fired . Are you hearing me y'all . Hear me y'all . Don't be deceived anymore . Let's send RH packing .

RH days are numbered. He has been set up to take the fall.

Keep your hands clean

You must seem a paragon of civility and efficiency, your hands are never soiled by mistakes and nasty deeds. Maintain such a spotless appearance by using others as scapegoats and cat?s-paws to disguise your involvement.

Without the smell of sewage people would mistake Cleveland for Detroit.

Pink slips go out at the Waterview. In his generosity, you can have a job in CGF, but the relocation allowance won't even cover the cost of a U Haul. The only thing that protects me from this kind of abuse is my CBA. The protections are well worth the consesssions I gave up on pay. The next amendment to our contract will have to made that right.

Honestly I see SLI as the only potential dividing line in this process. We will have to be aware Kenn and his crew will target FUD on that issue and remind each other that's all it is FUD.

As for your post, I believe we are all united in the resolve to go forward getting the best of what Options has coupled with the payscale Flex has.

Keep in mind at Flex we haven't seen a raise in 5 years so even for us it will have to be better than protecting what we currently have. I think Options guys have a chance to make out like bandits and Flex guys get the priceless benefits of a CBA. Win-Win. Let's keep our eyes on unity.

 

[GlorifiedCabbie]

Win-Win. Flex pay+ Options work rules= a good starting point for the next contract. As for SLI, no one can predict what will happen. Prior to that, the ones that will temporarily benefit, are the ones going for the immediate short-term personal gains.

Flex pay is 5years old

Flex pay is 5years old

... and Flops pay was five years old the day the CBA was ratified. A CBA with Flex base pay plus 5 years of COLA would be a bare minimum to settle for, so it should start much higher in bargaining. Luckily Netjets will probably once again set the benchmark before we ever get to section 27.

And F eight day rotations. Flex schedule. If you want to do eights, you volunteer for that torture. If we do end up with 8/7, at least make a vacation week equal a rotation. It's total BS to have an on call obligation in the middle of your time off.

Get use to the 8/7. As far as vacation it is a rotation week, and my contract says I'm not on call, when I'm off duty, vacation and during 7 days off. So I'm not sure where you heard that. Maybe the Red Label thing.
