USAPA wants $'s for marksman........

[Regul8r]

You wouldn't be saying that if the gun was pointed in the other way when it went off and shot the FO..... Sh!t does happen to everyone and we all make mistakes, but this was stupidity. We're suppose to carry the weapon (wear it on the belt) WITH THE GUN ALWAYS SNAPPED. Do you get it? NEVER EVER SHOULD IT BE UNSNAPPED, unless you have a threat in the cockpit. THATS IT..... Like someone said earlier.... this wasn't an accident, it was stupidity and negligence. And if you wanna call me a moron for thinking this guy should be fired then fine, but I'd bet my paycheck that you wouldn't think the same way if that bullet caused a death in that "accident"......

You missed my point. It's easy to point the finger when it's not happening to you.

 

[captairbusbb]

Before USAPA was even voted in as the new union, USAPA called for donations to help out a west pilot that was in need.

Turtle......plz refresh my memory.

I don't recall this excuse for a union ever helping a westie.

Details please.

I agree, and its actually even worse than that. Those same folks pleading for benevolence for an east pilot are attempting to financially ruin 18 individual awa pilots by suing them for such 'crimes' as web board posts. A federal judge dismissed the suit with predjudice, and they are appealing the ruling. Repugnant indeed.

You left out the part about the westies crapping in boxes and mailing it via USPS. Or jamming USAPA phone lines in an attempt to run up the phone bill..... just to name a couple.

A federal judge dismissed the case with predjudice, why is that? You guys had more than a little trouble presenting your "case" and "evidence" that day in front of the judge.

usapa is just plain repugnant, period.

Sigh.....

I give up.... its like talking to a brick wall.

ps And if this did happen to me, because I was stupid and negligent AND DIDN'T FOLLOW SOP'S, then I'd expect to be fired with no chance of getting my job back... period.....

Im done with this....

Maybe they did not want to bring a box of westie dodo to court with them?

Good luck "proving" which coast some feces came from. I will add however, that every time I'm in PHL, CLT, PIT, BOS, LGA, and DCA. I see hundreds of walking, talking Eastie POS's. That I can prove.

 

[waveflyer]

None of this argument has any credibility UNTIL USAPA forms a fund to help the furloughs... You have west guys w/ 4 years of your precious longevity that will lose their jobs before new hires w/ less than 1 year.
How do you justify that?
What are you doing about it?

and remember-- noone is confused about the new hires place on any seniority list.... they are junior to everyone.

I never said he didn't follow SOP's. But I'm glad that your being honest with us and would let your entire livelihood go without the least bit of resistance.

You refuse to pay dues, yet you demand a payout?

A hole in the side of the plane would likely result.. they use lead bullets too.:laugh:

That, and the passenger sitting next to him would have to change underwear.

Uniform #9 and furlough #7 buddy...... Imagine sleeping on your arm for about a year straight and how numb it would be at that point..... that's about how numb I would be if I was fired or furloughed or my company goes bankrupt again..... ENTIRE LIVELIHOOD? wow.. please tell me you're joking.... after all this bullsh!t you haven't invested in anything else? Ha... you're in for a rude awakening my clueless friend.

This guy has not done anything else for the last 24 years, but be a captain at a major and at one point he was at the top of the heap in pay. Parity +1 right boys and girls....mmmm... 99 wasn't it? And at 55 the guy can't support himself for more than 6 months? AAAHHHH..... And you're probably one of the guys that probably thinks we should all pitch in and "rescue" these idiots that bought bigger houses than they could afford and are getting thrown out in the street...... why not.... fu(k what the junior guy want or needs right?

Do the right thing USAPA and get a furlough fund set up for the guys/gals that are getting screwed out of seniority and let this parasite get what he deserves. Done...........................

 

[becket]

It's much worse than that. They demand submission. They demand we allow them to staple us. They demand respect all the while they spit on us and withhold no effort to personally bankrupt innocent West Pilots. They demand our money, or, under the totally unintended use of RLA, They'll demand the company fire all of us.

The reality is they're a bunch of cry baby, whining little bitches that have been stomped on their entire careers. They never put up a fight because they're all cowards.

Bradford, Cleary and King are the scum of the Earth and the biggest cowards of them all.

They've become an institutionalized bully. And just like the bully kid on the playground, the best defense is the hardest punch to the nose you can muster because at the heart of every bully is simply a quivery lipped coward.

FUSAPA, the battle in Federal Court is rapidly approaching.

I doubt that a west pilot would accept that USAPA had done anything for them.. even if they were given a Capt A330 with weekends off.

Alas, perhaps if it was your child who was in need you would remember.

Without knowing the guy, I can't make that call. I think the original post was asking for a donation. Simple yes or no would suffice, wouldn't you think?

Ok.....turtle21 has not answered the question.

Does anybody have any 411 on the info turtle says that the low life union asked for donations to help out a westy prior to the election?

I don't recall and don't believe anyone can recall where the A'wholes requested help for anybody on the west list.

If you have facts and recollections that I missed, please fill us all in.

The one sided association has selective memory and don't believe for one second they have ever asked for a donation or assessment for a westy in need.

Thanks for any info.

who gives a sh!t if you know the guy or not? He fu(ked up.... plain and simple.... and no I don't think ANYONE should donate to this irresponsible, negligent dou che....

As long as AL-SAPA is trying to steal our seniority it doesn't matter what else they may do for us. 161 AWA pilots are about to be furloughed who wouldn't be if we'd gotten a joint contract last year. I'm sure you understand.

 

[regionaltard]

I'm wondering what the over/under line should be for the number of times that dirtbag outfit has to pass the hat for the crisis du jour before it finally folds.
