Tranny ALPA MEC - Dragging their feet

[Lear70]

This post shows how absolutely little you know. If they are "negotiating language", then why do I have in my possession the actual side letter and ISL, verbatim?

Negotiations are over.

PCL is correct.

The Merger Committee put out an email to us this morning which detailed that negotiations were still ongoing this week on the 4-party agreement, which is different than your SL9 and our LOA 0x-11 (similar to your SL9), and hoped to be finished up this week.

When they're done with that, they'll brief the MEC, then we'll see what happens next.

Love the facet; senior SWA FOs will be paid CPT paid if fly with an AT Jr capt. Our JR CPTs are mostly on the 717, and in ATL. Throw that out the window.

No signing bonus for SWA guys, no stock options? Nothing? WOW didn't see that coming.

i think it is good for the swa fo's to be paid capt pay if flying with a junior AT capt. face it boys, they do things different and it will take a year or so for us to get up to speed on the southwest way of doing business. i can fly the plane and read the checklist, but i have no idea on how to be a "southwest capt" and i hope the senior fo's will help in that dept and they should be paid for their trouble. if any of us think we are going to pass a checkride and be as efficient as a 10 yr swa pilot then we need a reality check.

i look forward to the chance of learning how to do it their way. i may not like my position on the sli, but i will not try to change what works for them with a bad attitude going forward.

No worries, ngsp. Instructor Dude will fly with you and bring you up to speed.

You have your SL9, which is just one of several documents that have to be finished. There is still much to be done.

Those ALPA lawyers are having a hard time getting sufficient loopholes in such simple and concise language...

Yes those SWA boys and girls fly the airplane so much differently than all the other airlines. Really?? Are you that big of a tranny tool.

Haha, excellent post SkiFish.

 

[ngsp]

powers, think what you want, but the tranny boat has sailed for better or worse. do you think i like the idea of giving up 32% senoirity, NO. i think the ones who do not embrace the new reality is going to have a very hard time in training.

we have groups that will vote yes for anything and no to everything, i am neither, but until someone shows me how we can make it better, buzz off.

i trust our MC. i have spoken to them personally and will take their recommendation that the possible gains in arbitration may not be worth the potential losses to my family and career.
