Ricci/Rossi coming back to FLOPS?!

[Voice Of Reason]

Voice, don't you have a spelling bee to attend to or something. We have much bigger issues to attend to than spellcheck. After fourteen hours and 90% of the time not even having the time to read what you write who gives a dang. Ricci coming back is not a good thing, a contract would be a good thing. You can pay me sh&$*#&$*t and treat me well, or treat me well and pay me sh*&#*@^#&@*t, but you can't do both. That is something those clowns upstairs in cgf will never figure out. This place is doomed. I give it six months or leess.

WTF are you EVEN talking about?
Are you drunk?
I don't speak monkey :smash:

Carry on

Drunk? no, just talking out my a$$ again.

UGH. your repost of her post (I have her & B-19 on ignore) is a vile infraction that can only be overlooked this time due to your commendable and staunch adherence to the rules of educated speech.
For that, I applaud you for your public service toward those who are without hope and unarmed for such a battle.
Carry on.

Just like you didn't believe Ricci would be back. Everyone is talking like he is already going to become MS's predecessor. He is not acting in any official capacity yet. My point is we have bigger issues to worry about than that right now. But if you want to start another thread correcting someones spelling, double negatives, and grammar, well then

CARRY ON

Seriously, lay off the booze and get your posters straight. You aren't even making sense. As far as the "spelling" clip you posted (sort of), it was a congrats to a specific poster (re: not you) who corrected an illiterate post (not yours).
Not only was it not about you (until you jumped in and started speaking monkey), what anyone decides to post about is not your decision. You don't decide what we deem important to talk about, and you have no power.
Get over it, ignore, get a clue what you are even posting about, and move on.

What bigger issue, is bigger than who is driving this company? To survive, this company needs the pilot group to work with management and trust management. You bring in Ricci and his corupt bunch (hell half of them are still here) of idiots and we could have the best contract. The company will fail if management and pilots still have an adversarial relationship

Change is coming to Fl Ops very soon. Stay tuned.

Do tell! We need some slither of information or rumor. It is getting really sad out here. They are wasting money like crazy.

Yes voice I am sorry. Did you ever consider maybe pilots use this website as a tool to decide whether or not this is a fight worth continuing? Perhaps we should focus our attentions on pilots verses management and convince all those moorons to stop doing OT. If you look at our crew ratio 4.1 per airplane (including management pilots) you would see they are getting desperately low. Every day of OT worked is another day without a CONTRACT. Why can't these guys figure that out? I am tired of wading through the bs on this site trying to figure out who is winning the war, us or them. As for me I am a regular old line pilot who rolls on ready moving at the speed of negotiations, flying the pledge with a finger on the ejection button. If your crystal ball is working,,,, well then grasshopper please enlighten us. peace

Overtime

Yeah its sad and true that there are guys still working overtime. They all have their excuses why they do it. I guess they don't understand that they are delaying the contract for a few extra bucks today. They are really taking money from their own pocket. Kind of ironic, don't ya think?

Another one bites the dust

Found this on the Floptions pilots board and it is so telling.



Hey guys and gals,

I called it quits today. It has not been fun (or safe) for a long time, but that had nothing to do with my coworkers. Flight Options formed the basis of my career and I will always be grateful for the experience gained and wisdom gleaned from so many quality aviators here.

The leadership of the 1108 has their collective heads on straight if you ask me, and their guidance is the only thing that can save this ship, but for how long can upper management be this stupid? That will determine the futures of those who stay. To the PSM's, PM's and any other management reading this board (and we know you do), you have literally sold your souls to the devil and I don't know how you live with yourselves.

The mission first, bargain basement mentality that is evidenced every day by the idiots making the decisions here is killing the business day after day, and sooner or later, one would think it is going to kill some innocent human beings.

I empathize with those of you that have your own reasons to stay, and I would never presume to tell anyone what to do. For me, this job has progressively sucked more and more of the joy out of my life and the impetus to leave just got stronger with each passing tour.

One of the best ones I flew with here used to tell me when they are this consistently poor at the business, they are either incompetent or fraudulent, it HAS to be one, you pick.

Good luck with the fight!

SS,
The person who wrote that goodbye is a great pilot and fantastic person. FLOPS has lost yet another treasure from it ever shrinking chest of great employees.

I actually know one of the guys doing overtime and keep on telling him to quit. I know he has financial troubles right now. I just keep telling him to not complain about lack of a contract if he continues to do OT. The Union is working hard to support You. Are You working hard to support your union.

I like the other poster said move at the speed of negotiations.
