Why would anyone want a CRJ guys running ERJ runs and vice versa. Another lie being spread to **** people off. Pointless.
I find incredible that you guys will toss whatever bombs you can to get the emotions spun up. You attack many things on our side that your guys know nothing about but yet they will happily say to paint our guys in a negative light.
Most guys that volunteer for the union work work way more days than they get paid for. To attack them just to make yourself feel better about the process might make a big man on the ERJ side but it looks foolish to everybody else. Regardless of what is said here, hopefully we'll all be under under umbrella and those same guys will be fighting for you.
I might be exaggerating with "full time trip loss" but what I was referring to is their ability to cherry pick trips to pick up on off days and have trips dropped for manually adjusting flightline. It is far from automated which is another lie being slung from your side of the fence. So "full time trip loss" isnt true but they are definitely benefiting from their jobs and are about as far from flying a true line as possible.
Skedplus is untested but it also wasn't evaluated fairly or competently. Your ASA was offered every possible compromise under the sun including arbitration or independent decision groups but every option was a flat out no. Why are they so adament about it? Is everyone being as forthcoming as they should be? It doesn't look like it to me and there are definitely people with hidden agendas.
