[fischman]

Screw B19.

B19 has no clue what is going on and is trying to hijack the thread.

It is time to VOTE!!!!!!

Right on cue Bafoon 19

"it be poetic justice to discover the union got decertified because the union couldn't get the package to look important enough to open?"

Bafoon, you are again commenting on something you don't know anything about. (what a dope)

 

[gunfyter]

The fact of the matter is the pilots LOVE their union.


And RTS has said he likes having a Union in aviation.

He said you want a union so you don't have to worry about pilots being pressured to fly when its not safe.... Anyone with access to the secure company website can verify this by watching the Hangar Video posted there.

So management likes the Union, the pilots love the union .... Looks like we will have a union forever at NJA.

NetJets is a Berkshire Hathaway company.

Last year was our most profitable ever.

We have $2.5 billion in now aircraft on order.

The only things keeping us from growing faster is training slots and we can't get airplanes fast enough.

We have NEVER furloughed a pilot.

You future would be secure.

Hahha. I remember back in the heat of negotiations for the 2005 agreement when the company was headed down the wrong path of "our way or the highway", one of the talking heads (now gone... Moisture or something) said, "Blah, blahhhh fickin Blahhhhhh... We may have to furlough... blahhh blahh blaaaahhhhhh."

I remember laughing out loud. Really loud. I was in the front row of the "presentation".

We never got close to a furlough. Pesky Owner kept buying planes!

I LOVE OUR OWNERS!!!!

 

[fischman]

I LOVE OUR OWNERS!!!!

Me too.

And that's why we made a lot of money. Last count I saw was at least 3000 others who felt the same way.

"The union leadership wasn't even smart enough to make the packet not look like junk mail."

If you did your research you would know that the referendum is being conducted by BallotPoint - the electronic balloting firm that does 99% of the NMB referendums. The NMB approved ballot and envelope were certified by both NJASAP and the IBT. It is NMB certified. Oh wait - my bad, I forgot you do not do research.

Wouldn't it be poetic justice to discover the union got decertified because the union couldn't get the package to look important enough to open?

If you did your research you would know that this is not an NMB referendum but an internal IBT 1108 referendum. If less than 50% plus 1 show up (too late - already way past that point), the union is not decertified, IBT retains representation. There is zero chance in this referendum to lose union representation.

If you did your research you would know that just like everything the NJA pilot union has done since 2004, this is ground breaking. If a plurality chooses NJASAP, the paperwork gets filed with the NMB by NJASAP, IBT, and NetJets and NJASAP becomes the representation body for NJA pilots.

Your emotional argument will never defeat the power of education. If this is the best you union-busters have got, it is time for union leaders to take a vacation - there is no challenge here.

Fisch,

That is incorrect. The information you are talking about was only valid in the case of an actual NMB decertification vote. This internal referendum has zero possibility of causing a decertification of the union. That's one of the reasons we (NJASAP) signed the agreement with the Teamsters.

 

[captain dad]

Correct me if I am wrong, but we still need a real high percentage total vote so we don't leave the door open for the teamsters to protest and drag us back into the NMB. Right?

Either way, JUST VOTE!

and furthermore....Ahh... but there's the rub!

(pirate talk because those stupid boots represent so much pillaging)

When it gets tough, (and it will because it always does when the contract is up), those paid volunteers will not have the strength of the national union and they will see how STUPID and greedy what they are doing is now.

REMEMBER THAT NJW PROFITS FROM NJASAP BECAUSE HER HUSBAND IS A PAID "VOLUNTEER" ​

SHE HAS A PERSONAL AND VESTED INTEREST IN IT'S SUCCESS. ​

Just because you enjoy verbally attacking a woman does not hide the fact from all of us reading this board that you are a complete idiot and have no absolutley no frickin' idea what is going on with this vote or its process...I suggest you take off the blinders,read up and get back to us.
Your turn.

 

[brokeflyer]

b19 has no business posting ANYTHING about NJA....he knows exactly $hit about nothing pertaining to NJA.

so just disregard those posts and we'll continue the discussion.

 

[727C47]

just use the ignore function when it comes to b19,and other negative,self destructive types,much easier on the blood pressure,and if everyone does it,soon they will only be posting to themselves,sad,little men that they are.

 

[captain dad]

Have you voted yet?

 

[fischman]

Yes...

 

[Helmsalee]

Tried but my class was the one cut. Nothing sinister, they had to submit a list. The list they sent was dated 4/24. We started on 4/28. We missed the cut and cannot vote but the rest of you can. Don't waste the chance.
