My thoughts

If they wanted to fire people who criticized the new uniform almost half of us would be gone simply from that mega thread on the yam!

The questioning from management is continuing. My friend at Flex believes they are looking for the pilots who are pro-union and putting them on "the list".

And why wouldn't it? The last thing management wants here is a union. There's been 2 "union drives" in the 8 years I've been here and there are always rumors of supporters being identified for reeducation. However I have yet to hear any actual cases of discipline or termination that weren't justified (ie no witch hunts). I'm not saying it hasn't or couldn't happen but I haven't seen or heard of it and believe me word gets around when someone gets canned for any reason.

Also keep in mind that as the FJ pilot group teeters closer than ever to unionizing the surest way to push it over the edge would be to fire people for being union supporters. It wouldn't surprise me at all if rumors of a list were started by management to keep people afraid knowing that actually having one would unite the pilots more than the threat of having one.

This list?

Are they going to flown to Canada for the filming?

Or a mythical list you have created in your paranoid mind?

Remember, the 1500 hour ATP rule does not apply to frac/135. This is definitely the direction we are headed.

TWAT, aka James Marbery gonna ditch all you guys after his bidding for his master is done. And why not, American looking at 208 an hour for 10 year captain, 16 percent 401k contribution, plus profit sharing. All you guys already New that right?

^^^^

No class.

 

[warlord19]

You noticed that to, el.

 

[doh]

Doesn't that get you banned?

 

[doh]

But speaking of TWA, he sure has been quiet since they announced the end of 1/3 of our 401k match and upgrades out of seniority order. TWA, you still there? Or are you at AA?

I was kind of getting worried too, Maybe he is choking on his pride?

Uncle doesn't want the Flex and Options pilots talking. Options planes sit outside and have to be deiced while there is space at the Flex hanger. The guy driving the tug told me that came straight from cgf.

You weren't invited to the "All hands" Xmas party?






Neither was I.

 

[GlorifiedCabbie]

No el. It's guys like you and me that do the work while they go to the parties and take credit for it. They took our christmas bonus[$50.00 Omaha steak] away long ago.

Cabbie, what we are worried about is several thousand $$ in bonus going away...along with upgrades in seniority order. Oh, and the upgrades that are occurring are at a reduced pay rate with no benefits.

Have you guys heard anything about your bonuses?

How are the upgrades at a reduced rate with no benefits?

Sorry, been way to busy training all of the FO pilots that are coming over to FJ to check back on this board. Looking at the current schedule that should slow down sometime in March.

 

[FR8DOG777]

Yes Rat, derailing your fellow pilots is oh so much more "classy" By the way how's that 737 type with no time working out for you? Swa call yet?

 

[GlorifiedCabbie]

Derailing? He is an ENABLER. Uncle needs people like him to help with his scheme.

Still here. Been very busy at the TC.

Just as I expected the FO pilots that are going through training are overall doing an amazing job.

I am very disappointed that we lost the extra 3% 401(k) match.

I missed when we started the upgrades out of seniority order. Are you referring to the dedicated crew thing? Last I was told is that they are changing the concept to more honor seniority. I personally hope the whole thing dies. It is bad for the whole pilot group.
