SWA/Airtran Process Agreement??

[redflyer65]

Do you Commie?

OYS

HaHa. Dude, your Riverboat Jacket is too tight!

Ty,

I'm trying to understand this whole thing. Do the arbitrators tell GK when to implement the list?

GoodTimes-

Seriously? Can we at least let this matter go. Ty will post that same statement from the process agreement and how he interrupts it and then you will post your opinion and Ty will repost the statement out of the process agreement and you will ask this same question again. Can you just leave it alone? Just accept that you read the statement in the process agreement differently. You will not change his answer no matter how many times you ask the question. What is your goal for this line of questioning?

Auburn Sucks, but I agree with your post.

 

[GoodTimes]

I'm simply confused. Didn't mean to offend you. And I'll admit I'm a little bored. Elitt is winding down out here.

 

[SWA/FO]

No way. This coming from a guy that wants you stapled. Delta guys are a known quantity to Lear. Southwest guys aren't, yet. SWAPA welcomes you with open arms, and then awaits to "clothesline" you into accepting something unfair. And in all fairness Lear, I wouldn't be professing this unless I thought your group needed it.

Honestly, OY6 did you ever interview here at Southwest? If yes, were you offered a job? Have you ever interviewed at AirTran? If yes, did they offer you a job? Did you qualify to apply to Southwest? Do you have the minimums to apply to SWA now, if you wanted to?

Thanks

OYS, since you said that you like to give advice, I'm going to ask for some. I've hit a real lean spell with the ladies lately. Can you help? Sloppy 2nds as good as any.

 

[tankerhead]

ewww. That's just nasty.

That jacket is produced in Pensacola for our pilots, and they also produce jackets for actual Navy officers too. Do you think the Navy officers have funny jackets too? Do you Commie? I didn't think so. Not as funny now, is it? Quit stuttering.


OYS

The guy is named REDFLYER. Sounds like that could be a COMMIE name?


Bye Bye--General Lee

I wore the jacket in question for 20 years and I think they look HILARIOUS on you and all my buds who work at Mother Delta. It looked pretty good on me for a time but I would look hilarious if I wore it to work, now. It may fit but it would not fit in. Not that short sleeves with a tie looks good, either. At least it's functional (not the jacket).

Really? That Navy like jacket is HILARIOUS? Really? How about pretending you are "Fonzi" wearing that ridiculous leather jacket? Trying to relive the 50's, are you? Ehhaaaaaaaayyy! Now THAT is funny.


Bye Bye--General Lee

 

[shootr]

Hilarious on you, absolutely!

 

[General Lee]

Ty,

I'm trying to understand this whole thing. Do the arbitrators tell GK when to implement the list?

Did the arbitrator (Nicalau) tell Parker when to implement the USAir list? Nope. But, it is under BINDING ARBITRATION, and even though the East guys over there don't want to abide by it, eventually they will have to. Even USAir and Parker know that, which is why they don't have a new contract yet. That just divides the group, and doesn't allow as many cost saving synergies, and makes the airline look bad to other potential investors. I don't think GK wants to go down that route, even with his FANTASTIC relationship with his SWAPA friends. Nah.


Bye Bye--General Lee

 

[GoodTimes]

Is your name Ty?

 

[General Lee]

Is your name Ty?

No, but your's is IDIOT. Are you trying to trick Ty or something? Do you want the truth? No, you're not looking for the truth, which is apparent to everyone on here. But don't worry, I will continue to supply it for you at every chance. Watch out Airtran guys, this is the type of guy that will be your FO someday.


Bye Bye---General Lee

 

[madjack]

General and OYS,

Sewing hate and discontent between AAI/SWA is 1) Not your issue 2) won't help DAL in ATL...good luck

 

[ivauir]

Yes, he did say it very clearly. The PROCESS will have to be negotiated. He never said ANYTHING about the implementation DATE because THE PROCESS AGREEMENT SPECIFICALLY STATES THE ARBITRATORS WILL TELL US AN IMPLEMENTATION DATE if it goes to arbitration.

You are (conveniently) ignoring the conditions on that date. Conditions that put Gary Kelly in the driver's seat.

I don't know how to say it any more clearly than that for you. It's in black and white in the Process Agreement and EVERYONE signed it. People need to READ the ENTIRE Process Agreement FOR THEMSELVES, not just the bulletpoints that their respective unions are putting out.

That is great advice. Go back and read it. The WHOLE thing, not just the parts you like. There is a reason the company insisted on ambiguity to the implementation of an award.

No, but your's is IDIOT. Are you trying to trick Ty or something? Do you want the truth? No, you're not looking for the truth, which is apparent to everyone on here. But don't worry, I will continue to supply it for you at every chance.

GL,

The "truth"? Seriously?

You are unfamiliar with either union's CBA, the transition agreement, the process agreement, or even Gary Kelly's public comments.The only thing you "continue to supply" is your ignorance. Apparently you have quite a stockpile.

You have exploited every opportunity to slam Southwest pilots for at least 10 years. Whatever your issue with us is, calling us names on this message board is not a reasonable substitute for therapy.

Do you read your posts before you hit the submit button? You call someone else an idiot and then you say this? Pretty funny stuff......

 

[redflyer65]

= the truth.

Well said IVAUIR.

 

[GoodTimes]

Whoa! Slow down there General. No need to start calling people names, bro. An idiot? You don't even know me. The Double Breasted Fairness Police are an angry couple, eh?

Thanks

Never wanted to go to Southwest actually. When I got on with United, I thought I had won the lottery, and at the time there were SWA Captains leaving for United. Then things hit the fan, and I was furloughed. I waited for United initially, but then went for an international corporate gig that was fun at first, but living on the beeper 24/7 got old. Luckily I got my current job, which gives me the option to do longhaul international flying again if I want it. I do like your payrates at SWA along with your contract. I hope our guys push for something similar in contract talks starting next year, that would really make this place attractive to almost anyone. As far as having mins to go to SWA now, I have the hours and experience probably, but I don't want to pay for my training to get a type. I don't believe you should have to do that these days. I consider that a slap in the face, actually. Both you and your future employer should want you to work there, and your hard work as an employee should be rewarded by the company paying for your training. If Delta gets your rates or better, and still doesn't make you pay for training, what would you say then for a reason to do that? Thanks for all of the questions.

You're calling names too, that make you look like an idiot. I agree with him. As far as being angry, I won't be as angry as you after reviewing the arbitrated SLI, Mr. Well paid Fonzi Texan. (not bad, right? Lee?)
