Once again glad to see how overstaffed we have been...won't forget this going into negotiations. Company just robbed us for the past 18 months to pay off the shareholder pockets (ie. many of thier own).

Some 727 S/O and 757 regular lines are being bought up. I'm not saying I disagree with you...the 777 regular line values are ridiculous! I'm just trying to paint the full picture.
We were overstaffed. But, I think they screwed up the excess bid because we are now putting these excessed people back into the seats they were in, thus negating the monetary benefit of the excess. Now, we are obviously overstaffed in some seats and understaffed in some...welcome to the FedEx madness. I'm sure we'll be hiring 500 people soon...then cutting off hiring after we over hired.

The full picture is folks without a functioning moral compass want to reward their buds on the 777 with 20-30 hrs more pay than other guys on the property. Because they are the baddest cats in town. These are the same guys that were totally unaffected by any of that piddly 4A2b stuff.

And I'm sorry but using somewhat proper English is important if you want to come across as being knowledgeable on whatever subject you're writing about. I'm no Engrish major but can't we all just use spell check or better yet, review some basic grammar before posting something?

That is hillarious!! I hope this was meant to have a smiley face after it. Maybe?

I am by no means a management fanboy, but these are the secondary line MAXIMUMS.

I would add a little truth and reality to the full picture - like the accelerated 777 deliveries and the recently closed system bid which exasperated manning issues in that aircraft. As for being unaffected by 4.A.2.b, that was the 757, which was the new fleet taking deliveries at that time.
