If memory serves my correct from 2 years ago it was some shiit bag cargo operation down in MIA. They change names daily so it's hard to keep track of which one. I could be confusing the background with the Intl Cheif that got hired at the same time. Haven't heard any issues with her. I'm not sure what a fleet Cheif pilot does other than be management's "muscle" so they can maintain arms length.
If anyone has yet to notice, this airline isn't playing nice with the pilots. They haven't been for a long time but now are starting to show their colors more true. This is all by design and JB is the architect. A big part of bringing him in was to handle us and the FAs. Once our contract is settled my guess is he will move on.
We need to stay focused, stop the infighting and unify around our negotiating committee until they give us reason not to. The petitions and the dfw LEC stuff needs to take a back seat IMO. It's distracting us from the true problem which is management denying us our contract for no reason other than they can. They are starting to get hostile because it's their only option besides paying and they don't want to pay.
