Lil J...

Even the furloughees were against opening up the contract for relief. How many contracts do you want to negotiate to get back what we already fought for? Opening the contract would not solve the overmanning that ups and even the ipa said existed since the 8 was parked.

You talk of indifferent captains picking up OT...there are first officers as well engaging in this activity. IPA leadership has put out the message but there can't be leadership without followers. If you see someone violating the ban, pull them aside and talk to them and try and get them back on the path. If they don't respond, you have lost nothing while they have lost any respect going forward for the rest of their careers here at ups.

Know the contract and fly the contract...that is the best way to get our brothers and sisters back on property. *****ing and moaning about a perceived lack of leadership only benefits the company.
