My Last Post on Flight Info...

Gulfsteam 200,
I think you said


"Dont be over-impressed by Warren Buffett and think HIS billions are going to improve YOUR life as a pilot!!!...I have worked for bankrupt charter dump outfits that paid 2X as much....."

Well, I think my life as a pilot just improved, YOU think?
Also, do you still know any bankrupt charter dump outfits that pay 2X as much?
That would be 180K's/yr to fly the Ultra......

Gulfstream, Gulfstream, Gulfstream,

Thank you so much, Your proving the point of my post.
First, you said

until one of your tools (stickshaker) brought me into it all giddy about 90K after 5-10 years with the company.....he wanted to show me!, rub my face in the big bucks TA you guys fought for .

Look above, did I say I was "giddy", NO I did not. Did I say it was big bucks, NO I did not. I just said it improved.

so....dikshaker really WANTED me to comment - and I did.

Did I act unprofessional and call you names, NO I did not.
Did I ask you to comment, NO I did not.

You see Mr Gulfstream 200, I wanted to remind you that your bitter and true unhappiness is obvious from your words. I'm not sure why your not happy, but I can tell you that I am. Happiness does not come from how much money you make, how many days off you have, what you fly or belittling people. It comes from your core values in life.
I myself once worked for a part 91 corporate flight department. I'm fully aware of the advantages and disadvantages, from both our jobs. I dont want to debate that.
Why do you feel it necesarry to spend so much time on the fractional board belittling other people. There is a corporate board for you.

Do I have the best job in the world, No I don't. But I do have the best job for me.

NBAA average for equipment....aka low for the area.

but still a great job.

G200,

Very simply, I would put my pay, and my schedule, up against yours any day. When that was done, I guarantee I would not trade my job for yours. Any questions?

Now, I think your time would be better spent taking care of your 1 owner so he doesn't decide to sell your jet on a whim.

Netjets is still the best place to work in aviation, and now its been made a lot better by the efforts of people like Family Guy who work around the clock to come up with agreements at 1:00 am in the morning after a Friday night of negotiations. I ask my fellow peers to temper their responses. Management was not perfect in these negotiations, but neither were we.
Hawkered

Out!

And good riddance....So entertaining though...:laugh:...LMFAO at YOU !!!

Gulfstream 200, I can't take my eyes off of your avatar. Please tell me that is a self portrait, cause I think I know you. Were you in SFO the night of 10/8 and the morning of 10/9?

Yes, time to go back to the IBT office and not "play" angry netjets pilot

To all the people that posted that weren't at NJA/NJI.

Some of you had some good things to say, some of you are obviously threatened by the industry behemoth that is now NJA. The factory moves at 500 mph...move with the speed of the industry, or you will be meeting your new replacements soon!

OMG... I think I just broke a rib:laugh:
...And here I always thought RAYTHEON was "the factory"...silly me! The only "behemoth" is the IBT expense account, courtesy of the netjets pilots

To those that want to come to NJA.

:laugh: Oh gahd... No more, please stop :laugh:

Sincerely,

Hawkered

Out!

As they say... "buh-bye" now...good luck screwing over the next group of pilots. :smash:

Right on the money...and funny! I thought I was the only one that saw Hawkered was nothing more than a union shill flacking for the Teamsters. He showed up in September 2004 and immediately started trying to foment discontent in the NJA pilot group. Notice that none of the line pilots knew him; they thought he must have been a converted management type. Good job "outing" him.

We never saw "Hawkered" as a real union pilot. Most of our screen names on flightinfo are pretty well known in our own ranks and he never fit the bill. 239 posts since last September when things got contentious. Most of them leaning ever so slightly toward the pilots as being unreasonable, the Teamsters as being untrustworthy, la la la.

Sorry Hawkered. We never bought it.

I agree. We ain't buying it. With post like this:

Family Guy put endless hours in on the board, providing a balance between the points of view that were being expressed. He did it late into the night and showed us all that there really are people in management that are devoted to a successful turn of events.

His posts ran 2:1 for the company. Now that the tide is slowly going out on this TA, I bet we see more activity from the moles on this board. I have missed them so!

Huh?

 

[squonk]

Huh?

Now that the initial euphoria has worn off, people are actually reading the TA and finding some faults. Not saying it's not going to pass, but I think there will be a sizable no vote. Mark my words, if the tide really starts to turn against the TA, you will see the return of the mysteriously absent mole men.
