Default Even more LOA Questions...

With all due respect to the author, this is relevant to the point where it could use it's own thread. Who knows, maybe we'll actually get an answer or two from the union OR the company...


Here are a few:

-Where is the minority opinion?

-What were the companys' openers?

-What were our openers?
or
-How far apart were our openers versus the companys' openers?

-What compensation packages did we use as a model to shape our openers?

-Which schools were visited by the union and the company?

-What do English schools cost?

-What is the acceptance rate for american children who apply to these schools?

-What hospitals were visited by the union and the company?

-Why are there no health care details in the LOA?

-Why are there no specifics in the GT section?

-Why did we allow the company to take back all of the previous moving package language?

-What would be an example of a pilot whose situation would make taking option #1 a better choice than #2? Who was this meant to benefit?

-Why did we give back househunting tickets?

-Why did we give back monthly 100-lb shipments?

-Why did we give back compensated relocation days off?

-Why did we give back the 79CH relocation allowance?

-Why did we give back proration of seed money payback in the event of non-completion of time requirements?

-Why did we give up the three 1000-lb shipments?

-With the impossibility of moving all of one's household goods, why did we give back the storage language and allow the company to impose a storage limit?

-Why did we give up the $250,000 of insurance for replacement of our household goods?

-Why did we give up the automobile shipment?

-Why did we give up reimbursement for pet transportation?

-Why did we give up reimbursement for lease cancellation for up to 6 months' rent?

-Why did we give up a relocation allowance for people leaving the FDA?

-Why did we give up marketing assistance for the sale of our homes?

-Why did we give up the 3rd party home purchase plan?

-In light of all of these concessions we made, plus allowing the company to be immune from foreign courts, how did we arrive at the conclusion that we had no leverage to ask for a package that more-closely resembles other FedEx people in Hong Kong or most other expat packages in Hong Kong?

-Why did we not negotiate separate LOAs for CDG and HKG?

Those are the only ones that come to mind at the moment.

Hope your kidding; our MEC would never let them open an FDA with out getting something extra for the senior guys.

But just in case:

Then lets see what all of the items cost. After all the army of accountants was the reason I voted for ALPA.

Sure hope PW dosen't miss my 15 Apr deadline like they missed the 11 Jul deadline.
