I don't know why you keep posting quotes you don't understand. Yes, you can negotiate seniority but FIRST you need a) somebody to negotiate with and b) a legitimate union purpose to do so. You have neither. It's like Judge Silver has given you a lottery ticket you can't cash!

Ok, lets assume you are correct that things will remain as they are... the West shrinking and the East hiring. The West furloughs are welcome to come East. If everyone is happy with that then I can live with that. :D

But lets just think a minute... If/when the company is ready to sign a deal that nets them, by their own claim, $1B dollars in profits....They will not go to AOL to bargain and they will not give a hoot about any purpose except their own profit.

How do you shrink with block hour and fleet minimums? Why would anyone be furloughed?

Don't look so disappointed.
 
You mean the CEO that saved your job, that Doug Parker? Are you still depending on him? If you're a supporter of USAPA, you can call him anything you like. To him, you're money in the bank - literally!

Really? The drunk took money out of his pocket to save me??? You're funny. You know it was Bruce Lakefield then CEO of US Airways who convinced the investors to arrange our beatiful marriage.

The above quote has been proven to be false many years ago and was again reiterated at last month's BPR meeting by the financial team they had in attendance who was part of the deal making process.

This doesn't even pass the smell test. Do you think that Lakefield, who drove the airline into the ditch with Bronner and the Alabama Teacher's Retirement money, would attract th financial community to throw more money after bad? Or do you think those same investors wanted a CEO with proven success to expand with the assets others had squandered? That's the Doug Parker who kept you from becoming the new night manager at Taco Bell. Thank him.

Hi Becket!!!! Where was the "over a billion dollars in lost income" going to come from? I only have a math degree and your ex-con CEO has it. Are you really saying chug-a-lug dui parker was going to give it me????? Look at the public records and after tell me how he hides things from the public.
 
He must have spent it all on fancy terminal upgrades, aircraft revitalization, paying down debt etc... No? Employee moral barbecues?

Good play on words there about "cashing a lottery ticket" - the only difference is the East never bought a lottery ticket - we already had a fair list on our side - the West are the ones who said lets take a chance and gamble on the outcome

Metrojet
 
By outcome, do you mean the list that an impartial arbitrator (chosen by noth sides) developed in concert with two neutrals? That outcome?

No, it was never in doubt. The honesty and credibility of the east to live up to their agreements. Yeah, there's doubt.
