RAH in section 6

[Axel]

Fwiw.....

 

[Tarzan]

That'll show 'em!

All right Shaniqua, Skuttle America and Re-puke-lick time for you guys to step up to the plate and show us what the Teamsters can do.

 

[cargoflyr69]

and exactly what does this mean?

 

[Axel]

Hey, Tarzan. You ASA?

 

[BoilerUP]

Good luck guys and gals; Bedford and Heller have been getting theirs for the last couple years, time for you folks (especially those FOs!) to get your piece of the pie too.

Any truth to the rumor that RAH has de-facto canceled vacations for the rest of the year by removing them from availability?

 

[Tarzan]

Hey, Tarzan. You ASA?

Yeah. We showing em right now huh?

Guess I should have clarified that I was only kidding. The CHQ guys out STL used to help me out tremendously with the j/s. Hopefully these guys show some grit here and help out the rest of the industry. With both Mesa and Republic negotiating, the bar could be raised for all of us.

Why'd you edit your post?

 

[DOVPILOT]

just call out sick......

 

[TAWS]

I don't see anything on the web-board about this - did I miss something?

 

[Axel]

All good, Tarzan. Despite what some would like to think, we are all in this together.

TAWS-

It was in the LOA packet.

O.K.

I rushed off my "NO" so quick, I guess I forgot to read the full thing.

Thanks.
