Default To sum it up...

Nein, non, 没有, όχι, нет, ノー, no!

Does this also mean that we'll keep our parkas?

Side note, I hope the translation app was correct.

Mark what I think they "Know" is that our Neg. Comm. and MEC have said its a non-starter. They are waiting to see who stands behind them on this. I will be.

"What is in the other hand?"
I want to know this as well.......

Your 100% right. They know most, if not all, of that junk is a non-starter.

They shovel you know at us then "some" of us feel like we don't need the necessary improvements anymore as long as we don't suffer any givebacks. They just want to keep the bad stuff away.

I am personally insulted by the openers.

Guys,

I promised I wouldn't comment on this again, so I'm enjoying crow, stewed in my DAL hat.

Allowing any shape , or form of PBS on the property is the single most damaging thing that that could happen for the rest of your entire career. Age 65 would be a minor blip compared to the damage done by PBS to every aspect of your career.

After 30 years at FDX, then 5 with PBS at DAL, I believe I have a good perspective on the comparison.....and DAL ALPA has had a number of years to unsucessfully try to recover all the give backs.......bet your bottom dollar that FDX knows more of the details of PBS than FDX Alpa......no offense intended to the hard-workinng NC.

Best of luck,
BG

Whoa, how old were you when you got hired at DAL?

I don't think I've ever heard of anyone who has done it quite that way, must be an interesting story there somewhere.

We're giving PBS too much airtime. Just say no.

Apparently the hidden truth is they do NOT want to negotiate a contract with us. Which means its only a matter of time, long time?, until we take it to mediation.
If they were really serious about PBS/PIBS, don't you think that they'd be making sure that VTOs would going senior?
