Our NC now has the leverage that the pilot group voted down TA1. It will only help us moving forward. The company was only willing to compare us to UPS for pay last time.
I think Bill80 nails it with this comment. The time to replace PM was after the TA failed … not right as we head into aggressive negotiations with the mediators. I’m not a fan of PM, but I’m willing to see if he can redeem himself, and he does work at the direction of the MEC after all. It’s not like a new chairman on the NC is going to make the company say ‘oh oh - now we are in trouble!’. There’s a minority on the MEC who want to replace him no matter the consequences. It was pointed out at the last meeting that they simply won’t accept that they are in the minority and continue to do all they can to try and get their way. I don’t recall her exact wording, but it was well said. Evidently her sentiment didn’t register with Block 8 as he submitted an agenda item to recall the MEC treasurer on the Jan agenda, and submitting it on Christmas Eve none the less … I think that’s sinking to a new low.
