USA Jet for Sale

[skysharke]

Hey Porky wasn't yesterday the day we would find out what the big news was going to be about. Possible furloghs again?

I heard from a friend at USA JET it could be rumor But PORKY WAS Suspended from his job because of this post on flight info, pending investigation he may be fired.

Who narc'd?

 

[wannabe a DR.]

communication be damned....

Can't let any information out to the employees. God forbid dedicated people have a fighting chance to try and get prepared for the unemployment line and food stamps. I guess Darth YIP needs more time to get the death star fully operational.

LMAO, sad but true.

I don't know how they could prove anything. Even as a moderator there is no way to prove who someone is or isn't. When you sign up for FI you never are asked for your name. My only guess is they had IT do a investigation and someone logged on from work. Either way, I whole heatedly disagree with any action taken against "Porky" and if they do indeed fire him it clearly shows what kind of company culture is trickling down from Upper Management. Management needs to worry about making the company sustainable, and not what someone is saying about it on a message board!

I just heard that USA Jet is ending 401k matching and going on a pay freeze.

It's actually rather easy. Feed the target (and only the target) with specific information. When it appears on the forum, you have your proof.

Possibly not admissible in court, but enough to rattle the cage of the target.

That still does not prove squat. What is to say that the person you are feeding is not feeding someone else and keeping their mouth shut?

What is this, high school?

All that individual needs is the lawyer that represented the eight folks that were fired a few years back.

 

[Way2Broke]

Behold.....The Buckeye has said something intelligent!

They are saying that he caused company moral to be low. I think there is a pilot meeting on Monday! It would be nice if everyone could show up and support "Porky."

True

True CH put out a all hands memo email yesterday

Porky put forward a lot of lies. He did spread confusion and acted like a total scumbag. Having said that Porky does NOT DESERVE TO BE FIRED. He has spent almost 14 years at the company. The worst thing that should happen to Porky is a few weeks of sensitivity counseling. At the end of the day even though some of us may not agree with Porky he has a right to his opinion.
My 2 cents

I guess no one is willing to say the details of other cut backs? I've heard some of the benefits PilotYIP has labeled over the years have been cut. Any details?

 

[172Capt]

As of Monday, No more 401k matching, higher healthcare premium, will not airline you home if on the road and you come up on days off but they will try and work with you if you need to come home, if you are on the road on a day off will not buy it back but is banked for later use, pay freeze, no check airman overide, no more overides for anything else, all are subject to being restored if business and profits pick up.

WOW, what bennies are left???

Still having a job! Benefit enough in this rough economy right now.

 

[pilotyip]

still some good stuff

No pay cuts, no cuts in guarantee, still paid medical, dental, vision, paid vacation, and still have 12 days off every four weeks. The company flies you home if you do get stuck for a few days, but no more automatics. USA Jet has seen pay and days off cut in the past, but not this time. There is always an upside; there is always a reason to be optimistic, and every change like this is someone’s opportunity

Every day you are breathing and living is a plus, and every day you have a job is a blessing. Things could have been a lot worse.

Could have? It's not over yet. I guess it is easy to be so positive when you still have a job.

Is USA for sale or not?

Too much conversation and not enough fact! What is it...???
