Latest @ Evergreen?

Nope, not released yet. They voted to authorize a stike. Talked to some zoners yesterday and they are hoping for release into cooling off next week. Bad news is, all Del has to do is throw a crumb and the mediator will not release them.

Also heard that the Travis flying is going away to the point that the SUU base is going away, that sucks.

 

[propsarebest]

SUU base isn't going anywhere. All the flying we do in the Pacific is secured.

I think the petting Zoo is in the works.. So keep your fingers crossed. Mini golf would be nice and a great way to work on that putting stroke.

If we fly one of those to MMV in would make a great indoor Mini golf...

Don't give him any ideas. It is bad enough that we have a water slide out the L1 door of our B747-100. Before you know it, each plane will be for some other side show. Mini golf, restaurant, hotel, indoor zoo and the list goes on.

We need those birds flying.

What are you waiting for.. Get Atlas to buy us!! I would buy you a beer.

Just a beer, I will buy you a case of beer!! Can we fly the -400 to MIA with a big for sale sign on it?

 

[Fliteidol]

Be careful what you wish for......the Polar folks were very unhappy with the Atlas purchase and feel they would have done much better on their own. Is there an airline discount at the water park?

 

[Nevergreen]

Discount?.......if Del could charge his employees more than the public, he would.

Del is one sided about discounts. He demands discounts.....but it will be a cold day in hell before he ever knowingly grants one.

PropsAreBest.......the info about the pacific flying going away is coming directly from Travis ground crew.......has there been any new developements?

Look at the pay difference between Evergreen crews and Polar crews. Now take the difference of the ATLAS/POLAR combined contract -vs- the Evergreen contract.

Should be a no brainer. Evergreen crews are very underpaid. ATLAS taking over Evergreen would be a huge pay raise for the folks here.

No SUU flying for Oct/Nov/Dec per the SUU Sta Mgr. They will have to see what happens in Jan.

Dang...I went in to talk to the recruiter about a job awhile back and he took me over to the museum and got me in for free. Hope Del does not find out....he will probably try to charge me for it!

With interest, late fees and some surcharges.

A strip bar!!!! That serves Pabst!!! The dancers will be known as the Zonettes!! That'll bring in more cash than any airline. The 4 floors of w************************* and Wan Chai will be nothing compared to The Fire Bomber Strip club!!

 

[HA25]

anyone know how the water park did on opening weekend?

 

[Zoneload]

Strip club is a great idea.. I don't think we will ever know how the water park is doing..

 

[GG747]

If the profits reported are in the Millions of Dollars, then we all know where the money is actually from.

 

[tubineotter]

where are u guys, with your strike vote? its getting way past time to put his feet to the fire and get u guys a raise.

 

[GG747]

Your question is one that I still have. Strike vote passed one year ago and no real talk of any action.

My opinion, the top 10% just do not care about the ones making the low pay. Age 65 rule has hurt us in more than one way.

We are waiting for the NMB to release us into a cooling off period. They keep putting us off and scheduling more negotiations every 3 months or so.

The company whines they have no money and the retards at the NMB believe them.

The union needs to take the retards from the NMB to McMinnville, OR so they can see the millions and millions of dollars being spent on buildings, the Spruce Goose, SR-71 Black Bird, the Water Park, I- Max and etc.

20 min in town and we would have our cooling off period.

 

[Classicdriver]

This isn't Del's first time to this dance. Until he gives the union his final best offer, the NMB is gonna keep the dance going. He'll throw a crumb out at each meeting, and the NMB will declare progress was made....ARGGGG!
