Oh and how if the LOS guys get a Pay bump he’s been here 34 years he deserves one too.

Negotiations are not too far away for our next contract, we may be able to do what another post said a few days/week ago and "test drive" this for our section 6.
Being as it may, I have learned quite a bit from all y'alls thoughts and posts. Hope we all have a wonderful 2018. Cheers.

Test drive for section 6, huh. Is that the way you see it? Like buying a car or a house??

Buy a lemon or a lark.....but DON'T buy the best. You get what you negotiate. And you keep buying LEMONS! HA HA HA!!!

I just don’t see Rush with Retro on LOS and ACD up to a 9 months away (at least, if ever implemented)

We sit on here and rail about vagueness, language, and items never being implemented. What changes here? They get scheduling stuff immediately and we wait again not really knowing what we signed.

Most of tele-meeting was FUD but this was valid point.

Hard to say yes or no without details.

LOS will be great for the guys that took a hit in the 2000s, especially the TWA guys. They got hammered twice, they could use a win. The MidAtlantic guys lost all of their arbitrations, they were never mainline, they should not be the reason PHL votes no.

Slash trips are just ridiculous. There’s no way a major airline contract should have this in place. Fixing it now means not expending negotiating capital in section 6.

I’m not going to float next year. I want my vacation. If we don’t float we put pressure on the company going into section 6 in 2019. A 4 month hit on implementing min day is worth the angst scheduling will go through next summer. But that’s just my view, since the union is silent on this we need to determine our individual preferences here.
