Question. What is the over/under rule? Does it have to do with what we wear over or under our uniform?

Not clicking. Too busy doing other things anyway...

I don't know who "contract administration" is but they aren't that smart. Red Threat! Red Threat!

It's the manager that is in charge of contract admin.

It's really simple. They are setting up for the arbitration that will occur when we don't accept their offer of PBS. They will try to say they worked diligently "reaching out" to us. Of course they will never admit they are making outrageous assertions. That the thing they want requires our management culture to completely change. A change that is not going to happen under any circumstance. Managers must be practicing their most naive and surprised look in the mirror for the "are you kidding me?" moment.

How the head of contract admin can preach PBS is good for us yet be ignorant of how scheduling works at FedEx tells you much about him.


From ALPA -

COMPASS PILOTS HAVE NEW CONTRACT

Pilots at Delta Connection carrier Compass Airlines have a new contract. The new six-year agreement is a combination of contract sections negotiated by ALPA and the airline, plus a handful of issues decided by an arbitrator.



They have a pretty good track record in arbitration (slimy arbitrators) so they are willing to take a chance. Apparently management has come to the conclusion there is nothing to lose but all to gain by stalling negotiations. A time honored technique from some seriously old school managers. If they could just convince us of that "fact" all will be well.

Do you think they respect our negotiating process? I don't. What we've got here is failure to communicate.

Question is, can we speak in the language we know they understand?

It is AND not OR.
Those with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or greater and a neck circumference of 17 inches would have to be tested for obstructive sleep apnea.
