NetJets Strike Passes By 93%

[Some Dude]

Hawkered, the list was started because the company must provide an equitable amount of flying for all pilots. We need to know who volunteered and who received extended days so the whole group can see if the company showed any favortism in it's scheduling practice. I have a right to learn who worked all their "off days" and didn't work their schedules days. This is to TRY to prevent the "A Team" abuse that happened before. Sorry but we still have some suck a$$es here that would do anything to lick the ball sweat from a company manager.

Since it was proven the "A Team" was a theory of your imagination, I guess you don't really have the right after all.

With all the pilots calling in tired these days, and the shortage of pilots, that alone shows NJA crews are not only getting equitable amounts but apparently are being scheduled too many flights... hence, your argument falls apart.

Besides, who made you the company watchdog?

 

[Bad Monkey!]

It's one thing to name names when you know what you are talking about. But when you don't even have the correct facts you look like a complete halfwit. Any credibility you had just went down the tubes.

Don't be so hard on yourself dsptcrNJA by calling yourself a complete halfwit.

So now your saying that a scheduler didn't punch his fist through a wall?

Post whatever company propagana and lies you want if that's what makes you feel like a man, a company man that is. We who are in the fight know THE REAL FACTS, your company spin won't hurt me, only you and your credibility.

Anyone who reads this message board can go to the ibt1108 website and read the facts, not the company spin.

I'm sorry that you were an abused child, nimwit fits you much better nancy boy.

Since it was proven the "A Team" was a theory of your imagination, I guess you don't really have the right after all.

I guess it was a figment of my imagination when I was out as an FO, and we only had shows after 11am, only two legs a day, and hit the Caymans, Bahamas, Aspen, and all the hot spots. All in one tour. The CP even called the capt every day to ask us if we were having fun yet....

This was back when I didn't have a tour with less than three or four 14/10s and 5 -6 legs a day.

Got the same guy two tours in a row, and the same thing. Not that I didn't have fun, but it's a little naive to think that there was no A-team.

Now before you say it was a coincidence, had other buds that flew with this guy and the same thing. Smooth sailing compared to their other tours.

 

[FamilyGuy]

I've never really understood these overtime boycotts by unions.....they seem so counterproductive for a couple of reasons:

1. If the union members really are trying to prepare for a strike then they need to sock away all the money they can for the lean times. Unilaterally limiting your income just hurts that effort

2. An overtime boycott actually forces the company to become more efficient in its use of the available resources. Once the OT boycott has been abandoned, the 'normal' levels of OT are no longer available as the company has learned that it doesnt need it anymore

 

[El Chupacabra]

Sounds good to me. Now put the money in my normal time check.

 

[Diesel]

I got it now CMHTroll so the company is spending a ton of money on fighting the arbitrators ruling and paying J to sit at home because it's the American way? So is it the American way just to waste money on inefficient scheduling and more VP's than you need?

So the company has decided to ignore the rule of law and ignore what the lawyers are telling them just because it's the American way? You might want to do a little case study on what the company must prove in order to get an arbitrators ruling overturned.

Man you really are delusional.

 

[CMHTroll]

Keeping the Owners Safe

The Company is fighting the concept of a pilot's employment who brings violence into the workplace. Who knows what he might do. It is al about safety and J's capacity for violence. Yes the Company has always spent a ton of money on safety.

I am sure that you have every answer too scheduling and management so why are you flying the line? What do think the correct number of VPs, Directors, Managers, Supervisors, Specialists it takes to schedule, coordinate, book food, sell shares, maintain aircraft for 700 flights a day, every day? Sparky you are clueless.

The company is wasting it's time and money. The arbitrator ruled. NJA lost. This company wastes more money fighting concepts when it should be concentrating on business. The only reason to push the point in Federal Court is for CYA reasons of future potential liability.

Even NJA's Security Chief assigned J a rating of 1 out of 10 (lowest) in terms of his threat to safety. NJA fired that Security Profesional for not going with the program.

If we wanted to be part of "management" then we would have concentrated our efforts towards that effect instead of learning to fly planes. Management is a job required by all companies but practiced very poorly by most (especialy this one).

Correct number of VPs? As few as possible.

He flies the line because he is a pilot. He was hired as a pilot. Pilot have tried to offer suggestions to "management" over the years to no avail. You guys are truly doing a "bang up" job there in CMH. Keep going. It's ben one hell of a train wreck so far and the view is just fine from up here.

 

[Diesel]

Well i couldn't have said it any better myself flylow.

CMHtroll
If they are so concerned with safety why didn't they fire Chips Ahoy? Hmmmm I wonder.

Edit-

The one group we should be hiring in droves are more dispatchers. They are overworked, underpaid and need to focus more on aircraft specific than just the shotgun approach.

We probably need double the dispatchers we have right now. They are truely overworked.

This is something we have learned to expect from double-talkers. I didn't see anyone from the union sticking up for this scheduler when his name was called out like you were so quick to do when it was a pilot.

There are serious ethical problems breached here when you use a pilots real name to push your pathetic campaign.

So non-union employees are fair game?

You continue to speak about what you do not know. You read something on your teamster website and think you have the facts. You then accuse me of taking the company spin - assuming I get my opinion from them. Your hole is getting bigger.

I was an eye-witness to the event you read about on your website and it was not as you described.

Pretty tough to be so dogmatic now isn't it?

 

[Diesel]

So him punching a hole in the wall was what? The wall jumped out infront of him and he was protecting himself.

Common man.

I'm sorry that our pilot union didn't stick up for the scheduler in question-

MAYBE BECAUSE YOUR NOT IN THE PILOT UNION!

Yes Virgina, stupidity does run rampent in the glass house.

yah, sure, that's it. His name has already been called so don't even think I will discuss the details on a public board. Oh, I guess teamsters get that protection! How nice.

Why are you guys so preoccupied with this thing that happened years ago? It shows very little about the scheduler, but more about your own petty obsessions.

I guess it was a figment of my imagination when I was out as an FO, and we only had shows after 11am, only two legs a day, and hit the Caymans, Bahamas, Aspen, and all the hot spots. All in one tour. The CP even called the capt every day to ask us if we were having fun yet....

Now before you say it was a coincidence, had other buds that flew with this guy and the same thing. Smooth sailing compared to their other tours.

Who's going to be more accurate? You, who flew a couple of tours with this guy (who knows what details were left out?). Or an outside private investigator who has his entire NJA flying history at his fingertips and interviewed all the schedulers to get all the facts?

Sincerely, any reasonable person would have probably thought the same thing, including myself, given only the said facts. But GET OVER IT ALREADY, you were proven wrong! No reasonable person would keep claiming the truth based off 25% of the information after he was proven wrong. Pathetic!

 

[Diesel]

Dude are you kidding me? You're saying that some pencil pusher used all his investigative skills and says there is no A team. Then we get a memo there is a "go to team".

You must see it everyday. You dispatch why don't you just look at the names you are filing for. Notice how a lot of the cherry trips get picked up by certain captains?

I can't remember any of these "number crunchers" talking to any of the pilots or any of the union officials. They must not have wanted to dig toooo deep.

We could give examples all day long but it's a public message board and you're right. You don't have the same protection I do. I don't want to put YOU (dispatchrnja) into a compromising situation where you might lose your job.

 

[FLYLOW22]

I didn't see anyone from the Union sticking up for this scheduler when his name was called out like you were so quick to do when it was a pilot.

Was the scheduler represented by Teamsters? If so, what Local?

I'm sure that if he/she had been a member then representation would have been just a phone call away.

1 advantage to having a Union.

Just making a point that it would not be appropriate for a Steward or other Local 1108 Official to represent a non member.

I'm sure, however, that if the Dispatchers and/or Schedulers of NJA would like representation in future cases that Local 1108 could provide Union signing cards that would enable you to do so.

It's simply a choice that only you can make. 1108 can't do it for you and would also have no power to do anything unless you do so.

Memo from who? The union? 'nuf said.

Yes Virgina, stupidity does run rampent in the glass house.

Read it again, no one asked the Local 1108 to stick up for the shcedulers. It was asked of people on this board who happen to be union members to be afforded the same respect they expect from everyone else.. big difference.

Take a little responsibility for yourself and respect for your associates (even in anonymity) without having your hand held by the union.

 

[Some Dude]

Dispatcher you are clueless. You DID NOT GET THE MEMO FROM BOISTURE? I did get the memo from BOISTURE STATING THERE IS A GO TO TEAM AND THE FACT THAT THE SCHEDULERS DID ACCEPT GIFTS. You know nothing. I WAS PART OF THE INVESTIGATION AND I WAS ASKED BY THE COMPANY TO PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION. Boisture ADMITTED THERE WAS FAVORTISM. You don't know CRAP because you WERE NOT THERE. You are WRONG once AGAIN. Also if you attended a company recurrent you would hear Boisture himself state their is a GO TO TEAM AT NJA. So shut the f up about crap you don't know anything about.

 

[Diesel]

Actually BB. I can email you a copy of it if you want.
