No ALPA Lanyards at AirTran!!!!!!!!!

[CopilotDoug]

If so why the hell do people go there?

Haven't you heard? Big payraises are looming on the horizon. Schedule improvements are right around the corner. QOL is about to go through the proverbial roof. ALPA IS HERE!

Will enjoy watching the memos fly about ALPA lanyards and everything else soon. Keep taking those steps. When everyone acts together, management can't do anything about it.

Did you see this, Lear?

Don't forget the quick upgrade!!

Col, yes, I am well aware that AirTran has the lowest CASM in the industry, which is why I believe asking for major improvements in pay, QOL, and ESPECIALLY demanding fair, equitable, and professional treatment are all obtainable without "breaking the bank".

As long as all AirTran pilots act together as the union leadership directs, management will be unable to rule by fear and intimidation, and will be forced to bargain in good faith.

Relief Tube, no it wasn't always this way. The severe downturn in how the company deals with employees started just before T.A.'s 1 and 2 were voted down (the Christmas debacle is the earlilest I can remember thinking "WTF"?). It all went downhill quite quickly from there.

Heyas,

As a friend of mine once said: "This place is just Great Lakes with jets"

Nu

It's instructordude, don't worry about it Jeff.

He and Browntothebone have a habit of coming on here and stirring the pot. A few people you will see in almost every post who obviously antagonize people and get them into a big p*ssing contest, just to watch people get riled up.

iDude is just one of those types, while Browntothebone is more of the eternal pessimist. Easier to just ignore them since neither of them work at AirTran and keep working towards our goals of a fair and equitable contract with respectful and honest treatment by management.

And neither do YOU!

This happened at SkyWest and we sued the company the judge sided with us. You can wear Alpa lanyards and post Alpa stuff. What they are doing is illegal. Give ALPA legal a call.

Our Next Move As A Collective Group Will Be Wearing The Alpa Lanyard On Such And Such A Date .....indefinetly

Brownonthenose,

The whole reason he doesn't "work there" is because he was making an effort to improve the contract of the pilots he flew with, something that would be far beyond your capabilities as a totaly self-centered, egocentric amoeba.

You have revealed yourself as a member in good standing of the "I've got mine, you get yours" fraternity.

 

[Lear70]

And neither do YOU!

As a union member still in good standing, and fully expecting to return as soon as I can get my case to arbitration, I still have a dog in this fight.

Why are you here?
