Taking a ride from ORBI to the GZ is less scary than seeing a bunch of 76's on the ramp.

Not being an @$$ but being brutally honest. Plus the amazon flying doesn't seem to be coming back into play the way it should be.

Only time will tell what happens and I've seen this movie before. It's long and drawn out with lots of plot twists. It will take a good amount of time for it all to play out.

Nothing will bring management to the table faster then a hit to the bottom line. Well done ABX pilots for having the stones to walk. Someday, hopefully all of our executives will learn that it's cheaper to treat the employees well vs. trying to hold them down.

Amazon won’t resume work with one of its airlines until it’s sure the pilots won’t strike again http://www.cnbc.com/id/104143557

On Nov. 23, a judge issued a two-week, temporary restraining order that forced the pilots back to work and to negotiate with the airline while working. The two sides have not yet come to a resolution, and it's unclear if the pilots will attempt to strike again at the end of the restraining order window.
"We hope very much to resolve it and not have to go down that road," Jewell told Recode. "We hope that this period here woke up the company enough that they're willing to work with us to mutually come to an agreement to move forward."
A spokesman for ABX Air's parent company says they expect "these minor disputes to be resolved without further work stoppages."

So what is the status?

Amazon is holding flying until they are confident?

Is management working with the union for a resolution or are things stagnant?

Will there be another strike at the end of the 2 weeks?

It would seem management would be under serious pressure to work this out quickly. Are they sweating?

I would be pretty nervous at ABX right now.

If I were ABX management I would be. The union has made their demands clear....comply with the contract.

PSSST, tell your MEC they could be next. Only one guy runs the show if you haven't noticed.



Your right on the above

I think after the holidays it's going to be a free for all between you guys and management. Until then I think they want to lay low.

I thought the judge only gave them 2 weeks on the RO. After that they could strike right before Christmas right?

If that is the case I would think management better start making moves to make people happy.
