Default Delta TA in six months, Fedex 5 years, nada

Was reading Delta threads and it looks like they have a TA on the table and the reps will vote on it within a week. Hopefully it is a strong contract. We have been going on forever and FedEx management is still stalling. Maybe this will help them along. Contract NOW that respects our hard work for FedEx!

Our MEC says it took a year but I'm a FNG. Just an FYI and am certainly not trying to undersell your valid point. Good luck.

Keep in mind, they don't know yet if it's a "good" TA. there are lots of rumors of QOL concessions and productivity wins (for the company obviously) in the DAL contract threads.

Yeah, we'd have a TA a long time ago if DW and BC were still handling things. But it would contain PBS and every other concessionairy change the company wanted in exchange for hourly raises.

The length of time ours is taking and the fact MANAGEMENT was the one who went crying to the NMB tells me that for once our union is saying NO to their ridiculous proposals and finally demanding what we are worth.

I think you really mean ...in exchange for DW and BC getting a really big pay raise for themselves!*? Shhhhhhh ... and sell the 757 guys down the river in exchange for OUR really big raise

Or ... PC trying to convince us the FPA TA wasn't really as bad as it seemed? We now know what PC got out of the deal, seems like there should be laws against that?

There, I fixed that for you ...

Full Retro!!! to the penny! No Signing Bonus. This will help for future delay tactics. Actually, the Delay may help this time.

You do know that MANAGEMENT was the one that went crying to the NMB last time(2006), right?

Every contract we have had here has been at best cost neutral.

I know this is a FedEx board, but you could include UPS in the title also.

Delta will have two contracts in the time both our groups have been negotiating.

Delta has a T/A 7 months before amendable date and how many years past the amendable date are we? Makes me want to go the extra mile for the company. Stop $&@king with us and give us the contract we deserve!
