There exists a thread in the UNION forum just for you NetJetWife. http://forums.flightinfo.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=83334 Why dont you post there? Then, we dont have to ignore you. Anytime we need our NJWife sunshine, butterflies and 1108 holy war fix, we can visit you there.

Leave these areas to the PILOTS, ok, specifically us Flight Options boys and girls. When you get your wings we will be happy to read you then.

I'm pretty sure they can't hold MEC elections until a larger percentage are members in good standing (as in paying dues). You might want to check your with sources on that one.

I do have friends on the Organizing Committee that I could ask, but then I'd miss the opportunity to directly encourage the Options pilots to pay dues and vote.... I'd also like to hear directly from them who they will be voting for and how they're holding up during their contract negotiations.

NJW - the point is, they can't vote for anyone until they ALL start paying dues. They were allowed to vote on the bylaws only because a special exception was made for that one instance. I don't have the details, so check with your hubby for those.

UG, I understand that already; I hoped we could generate some interest in the situation and provide positive feedback, if needed....

NJW,
Well if the FLOPS guys cared about their future they would act on their futures. Talk is cheap. They need to have "X" amount of their people paying dues to vote in a MEC. Think that will happen?? Doubt it!!

The vast number of FLOPS guys I run into on the road don't know about the union drive, nor seem to care. You can tell me all day that they sent in their union cards so they care, not buying it. Mean while, I'm paying dues to support the team of lawyers that are working for them, even though they don't care. Sad, sad, sad....

Flops Union ???

I'm with ya broth'a

They've been led for some time by a dedicated Leadership Council; they may not see any difference in that or an MEC.

There were plenty of apathetic NJ pilots that had to be convinced to follow the lead of SU. Considering that, I think the Options pilots can be shown some patience, and our pilots that work with them a little more support...

They have my support, but to ask who they're voting for for MEC is a bit premature. They need to pay their dues first. And for them, the sooner the better. They're gonna hate the arrears payment they'll have to make in the future.
