Unreal. Scott
Exactly how did CAL take a bunch of bids, and exactly how did Calpa SOLEY cause a delay in JCBA & SLI ???? Let's talk "living by the contract" ... after MCD, UCH execution was constrained by the TPA and each legacy contract. The legacy CAL contract grew the CAL side about 500 jobs post MCD/pre-JCBA, and it was the legacy UAL contract that stagnated the UAL side ... nothing else was at play here except the contracts that were brought to the table ... NOBODY STOLE ANYTHING ... if you want unity, sh*t like this has to stop.
Now if your talking about post SLI ... the process will determine if the COMPANY is in violation and what may be done to rectify the deeds ... the rumor floating around is that there are folks in the training center that are actively helping L-UAL types pursue/achieve the training delay with the intent of getting said types their "rightful" seat ... true or false who knows, but the thought of this type of behavior being condoned is what has some in a tizzie.
