Letter from Mikey / FLOPS

[dash_trash]

Sad truth is that even with new planes the grand total will not change by much if any. The Phenom is supposed to replace the BeechJet. Mikey is not looking for growth in any form, it would go against all he has accomplished in his aviation career. :angryfire

Mike has to make a couple chops into the staff and crew. He will resign. You all will get the last laugh knowing what a mistake RAC made in hiring him. Finally, he will have to try to sell his house. Which he will take a huge loss. Waaaa. Nobody will want him. He will remain unemployed.

XXOO

I so wish that would be the case. Douc#bags bags like him and his ilk usually make sure they have a golden parachute. It's usually something like the corporation buying his house at an xyz value based on some bs "metric" struck upon years before the rust belt entered it's depression.

What a limp wristed, dead fish handshaking weasel! :angryfire

Ticker, you know executives will only work under a contract that benefits them--regardless of what happens to the company, or how lousy of a job they do. MS wouldn't dream of working without a contract. But he wants the Options pilots to... He needs the black boot!

Frac Cap, you nailed it! During the NJ contract dispute the Company produced a propaganda video to tell all the pilots how broke NJA was and couldn't afford professional wages. What irony. In hard times there is no budget for unnecessary items, but they hired a film crew to produce the FUD and then spent thousands to FedEx it overnight to every pilot. Following orders not to keep it , I wrote return to sender and handed it back. The poor (read with sarcasm) company who claimed they couldn't pay my FO husband a livable wage sent their boomerang DVD right back to our house--overnight delivery again. So much for being broke. After that stunt, it was a pleasure to see Boisture get the boot.

When the FLOPS realize that the FUD and propaganda aren't going to make the pilots cave in to corporate greed, they'll get serious about hammering out a contract. Companies truly in financial trouble look for efficient solutions--quickly. They don't waste money and run off the workforce they can't afford to replace...

You hold the moral high ground so dig in your heels and insist on fair treatment/compensation.

 

[chickenwolf]

its "losing" not foot loosing...Good luck though!

 

[Voice Of Reason]

You can organize as well. Its not my/our (pilots) problem if you want to get sht on by the company. We have benn getting sht on and we did something about it. What are you doing about it? And do you really believe what mikey has to say in a letter?

1108 is failing miserably at FLOPS. For over a year now, all I see is whining on this board about how terrible it is.

If the leadership at 1108 was all that great, headway would be happening there and there wouldn't be a stalemate. 1108 would be able to overcome any "barriers" put up by management. Instead of doing what NJW says, and "WIN" a contact, they should try to "negotiate" a contract, and that isn't going to happen.

At NJ, 1108 chose the richest fractional first, and now that they are dealing with one without pockets as deep, the truth is now showing about how they will react when the going gets tough.

NJ pilots need to pay close attention to this, because when the economy gets tough and meager profits NJ is now enjoying fade and vanish, what is happening at FLOPS will happen at NJ too.

You wanted a union, you got it. Enjoy.

Spoken like a true idiot. Go eat a another booger.

Are you ignorant or what?

Executives are offered a contract. If the company doesn't like they contract, they don't hire the employee. Simple and fair process.

Unions force the company to accept a contract based on what the union "thinks" is fair. The company, the shareholders, the rest of the employee group do not have an option even if it puts the entire company in peril as has happened historically through the history of unions, regardless of the industry. Very complicated and unfair process.

Not the same thing, and you really don't understand this stuff do you?

Your statements about the necessity to "win" a contract, not negotiate and your complete disrespect for non-pilot employees show your complete lack of understanding of how unions affect a company.

The village idiot is back!

Two quick things...the union doesn't "choose" a company to go after...the employees choose a union, because mgmt has made the job so sh!tty that they need one.

People whining about how terrible Flops is? YES - but that is because mgmt makes it a sh!tty place to try to earn a living. I love how you make the UNION's point with everything you try to say...

B19 is one of the best advocates any union could ever have! Keep it up Bud!
