But, those lanyards are sure stylish.

We need a blended rate across the board like UPS has. It's BS that their 757 Captains make $37/hr MORE than our 757 Captains do.

I KNOW Flt Mgt has had special projects guys working on Preferential bidding for months.....I am surprised the Union doesn't know about this. If I do, they should.

Of course they've known about this! What makes you think they didn't?

So we should "blend" or just make our NB rates same as WB rates?

We could end up with 150 757s some day and they can save lots of $$ paying those at a NB rate.

Having a folks sit reserve for both 757 and 767 at NB rates is something they want too.

Fine. Separate bid packs then.

42Go,
Are you serious? Do you really believe the union didn't or doesn't know about the company's desire for PBS?
This kind of post amazes me. Just ridiculous.

Maybe the lawyers didnt want them to tell us they knew. But they knew, that we knew they knew.

If we get PBS we better get 100% pay raise, double the vacation, double sick leave and unlimited drop.

Hey Mem,

I know you're being tongue in cheek, but not even those changes would make up for the irrepairable harm done to the entire pilot group for the REMAINDER of their career.....IMHO, it would make age 65 and 4a2B look like a walk in the park

Do NOT let the camel's nose under the tent.....sorry for sticking my nose where it no longer belongs......I'm a bit sensitive after the last 5 years under PBS.

Best regards,
BG
