Union Troll

I guess all of this discussion helps me in my decision to not put my resume in with NJ until the new contract comes out. I gotta believe that the new numbers and schedules will have to be a lot better if they want to hang onto their pilots. Just think of the investment that they have in your aircraft training already, not to mention your experience of how things work flying the line. To train new pilots to replace a bunch of pilots that leave because they have had enough of the NJ garbage would cost a huge amount of $$$$. I currently fly for a company that is not fractional and I get more $$$ than some of the NJ captains. I always thought that it would be a good thing to become a part of the NJ team and fly new equipment on a schedule. I have learned that your schedule is a whole lot worse than mine and so is the pay for at least the first 7-10 years. Why make the change? That is the question that I am asking myself now! Thanks for all of the info!

As you are an existing NetJets pilot your post is nothing more than your desire to spout your political position of the MEC. You are dismissed.

Anyone can read his previous posts and see that you are wrong.

CMH TROLL- Who taught you how to comprehend what you read? I do not work for any Frac. If you read my prior posts you can see that I have never worked for a fractional and all of the negative posts have just made me shot down my own foolish thought of possibly flying for a frac. Read, understand THEN speak!

Tensions are running high in the labor relations office, enemies everywhere. Real and imagined. Circle the wagons.

The only one about to be dismissed around here is a certain leader of Netjets who has lost a fortune since he sold the core fleet and did $20 million dollars a week in charter overage.

Easy now. He is just doing what he is paid to do.

Their MEC has to keep them "whipped up" -

The union has had excuse after excuse why they will not audit the books-
First: it was the wrong books,
then it was the non disclosure form,
then it was the wrong audit team,
now it is the wrong company leadership.

Just another political union ploy.

The MEC needs to get us the heck out of abeyance.

But the pilots are busy- busy on committees, busy making phone calls, busy planning informational picketing, the MEC has them distracted and now the pilots thinks this means they are getting more than before.

More what? More requests for money to fund union billboards? More public flogging if you dont volunteer?

Guys- tell the MEC "Get in the game and show me the money"

You mean like the $2350 I am getting on the 19th paycheck for the class action grievance

I love how all the non pilots are "experts" in what goes on everyday.

You guys are a friggin joke.

we all know what that was really about-
nothing more than the old mec would have done.

 

[Diesel]

are you friggin kidding me. The old mec wouldn't even know what a grievance is. Much less have any balls to enforce contract violations.

I'm getting 1800. niiiice.

ha ha haaaa. CMHtroll, Facfriend, you guys really look like idiots. haaaa

 

[El Chupacabra]

making more in grievances so far than would have with the POSTA!

 

[Diesel]

ain't that the truth.

I can't wait to see how cmhtroll, bb or fucfriend decide to spin this one. I'm sure it's going to be something like we are costing the company more money by enforcing the contract. We should really be letting the company use us and say that's great!

ha haaaaa what kind of spin are you going to put on this you losers?

Are you talking about the Class Action for the company hiring test pilots to get the plane out of the short field a/p?

No... thats to come

Are you talking about the Class Action for the company hiring test pilots to get the plane out of the short field a/p?

No, that's a different company violation. We're talking about the company agreeing to pay 5.5 million dollars to the pilot group for violating the show times for the period 2/17/05-3/11/05.
My check will be for about $2,000
I've made more this year in OT (that I wouldn't have gotten under the company proposal with no OT) and from the company violating the current contract (grievances) than I would have from the salary increase in the POSTA!

 

[Starman]

Wait until the 1.4 grievance hits the payroll. I'm betting it's going to be as much as a year's paycheck to most people. Get ready to start signing some serious checks RTS.

This is a grievance filed by the union because the rules changed but the contract had not. The company was following the rules and had not gotten a LOA.

In the meantime....

The MEC refuses to hire a reputable auditing firm.
So the pilots sit in abeyance-
what is the MEC excuse this week? Starting to look like Dave Letterman's TOP TEN REASONS....

I figure after they play out- we want Woodbridge and Omaha-
next someone will get the flu-

 

[dsptchrnja]

Last I heard, on July 8th, the MEC indicated they were willing to employ the auditing firm... are you saying they are stalling or now going back on their original intent?

Either way, doesn't sound like they are very representative of the pilots they are supposed to be representing does it? hmmm.....or are they?

This MEC is not stupid, there's a reason they have a history of not wanting to know how much the company makes, because once it is shown, doubling crew salaries would be obviously frivolous. It is better for them to capitalize on the "appearance" of wealth and the personal wealth of WB.

It is now August 15th-
how long does it take to hire a reputable, national auditing firm?
10 seconds or thirty?

This MEC cant get the job done that they have promised.
That is why they are using rhetoric and well used union tactics to distract the pilots from the main mission-
They have everyone "very busy" on committees and those that express discontent are subject to public flogging.

Last spring they promised a "summer strike" now it is the winter....

Even here- I am called names-
4th grade bully tactics...or union 101.
