The sky isn't falling. If we have enough folks to fill the FDA at the current contract, why should I care? Let them eat $hit cake in gay Paris. I have no problem with idiots taking a crappy deal. I could care less.

So why is it a problem for these idiots to bid the FDAs at the current book? This is a great deal for us, these are the same *********s flying disputed pairings. I hope they enjoy the FDAs at what they are offered. Why would this bother any of us?

As the union says, these spots will fill anyway. Great, let them. It's still great for any of us. We have these bafoons half way across the globe and we still don't have to spend a dime on them when it comes to next contract negotiations. If people choose to bid these FDAS under current book, why should I care to help them out. I won't care about them next time, I know they deserve what they get and don't deserve another dime!

We ALL have the ability to NOT bid these assignments. There is no STV. If enough guys bid it, I could care less about helping their standard of living, If no one bids it, then we have strength..... I would certainly spend negotiating capital for them...
AMEN, Brother, AMEN!! Let's have an AMEN from the back row now...

Morons of the web, don't be swayed by their Svengali-like meetings. "We have no leverage" and "they don't have time to fix this" all in the same day? Come on, fellas... There is no, and I mean no, "fixing this later" that will happen. This LOA takes away language we fought for over 2 previous contracts. No STV, it's specifically prohibited in our current CBA and you dirtbags want to give that up? FDA bonus in our current CBA, LOA takes away the bonus if you want to stick with the current CBA options... Anyone who thinks this is acceptable needs to go somewhere and detox.

Start with what we currently have in our CBA. Add to it only - NO GD SUBTRACTIONS ALLOWED!!!! Get your minds around that as a foundation for negotiating and we'll do ok.

Let them eat SIBA...
