Hey you wonderful NetJet Pilots!

Just wanted to throw out a big thank you to you all for all of the food you gave us line guys. Secondly, who was the hot flight attendant on the Falcon 2000 that was breaking up with her boyfriend in the "Canteen"? See you on the flip side!
 
Kasher = employee basher

Kasher had a hand in the TWA flogging as well.

Isn't Kasher the arbitrator that you'll be using? The same one that just handed down a 30% paycut to Alaska Airlines, a profitable company?

Good luck to NJ pilots. I hope you guys get what you deserve, but I see the writing on the wall with this Alaska deal.

All joking aside, I am pulling for you guys and support your endeavour. I was just hoping to see a bigger show. It would have provided a bigger impact for your target audience (whoever they may be).

That was the tactical team you saw which hit the target precisely and accurately.
What you didn't see, nor will anyone , is the support / logistics team behind them that range from 1200 to 1500 . Or let's just say more than 51%.

Exactly! They don't care!
What they do care about is if there ride to Aspen will be there or not. Now they know that if BRK doesn't do something it may not. What the BRK shareholders care about is if one of there companys will sustain hundreds of millions in losses due to a Strike.
 
The question is, just how much more is the average owner willing to pay for exactly the same service? That is to say, your owners are receiving quality service for what they presently pay. What is in it for the owner if the price goes up? The safety argument is tired. Certainly you guys are not going to be less safe without a pay raise. I mean, who is always the first person to the accident site: the PILOT. So, the pay me more and I will be safer argument really does not hold water.

Informing the BK shareholder is not a bad idea, but why would a shareholder want to increase labor cost and perhaps receive less return on their investment?

Why would the media care about a labor organization that caters to the rich? The mass media is a traditional leftist institution that spends its time brow beating the rich.
 
I answered your question about shareholders. You wouldn't want to see $100 of millions in losses due to Labor self help would you?




Proper Pilot Wages... It doesn't cost... IT PAYS.







Somebody needs to read Herb Kellherer's book NUTZ!










When you take care of your employees they take care of the customers who in turn take care of YOU!




I viewed the selection of a flight provider as akin to picking a brain surgeon:you simply want the best. (Let someone else experiment with the low bidder.) - WB 2004 Statement to Shareholders

So it comes down to what is cheaper?

(A) Millions to break a strike
(B) Mllions or pay what is demanded.
(C) Find a happy medium


Lets hope its choice "C"
.
 
Happy Medium? After HOW LONG?????????????

Bullspit! It's time to pay the pilots what they are worth. Netjets pay levels don't even come close to the "average" pay for Part 91 flying for the same aircraft types and yet NJA pilots fly A LOT more. Paying Citation X Captains $70-80K - you've got to be kidding me - not even close to the national average. The pilots are the front-line interface with NJA's precious customers. No more delays. It's time to pony-up Warren.... No excuses.
