I loved the message from the company. Our illustrious leader sent out an email blaming the union (big surprise) for not being greedy and making a grab at the money. $500 extra per day for a duty day over 16 hours looks good on paper, except gateway travel doesn't count towards duty day (nice little gotcha for the unsuspecting pilot).
Did anyone else notice that our big boss said that they addressed certain issues but not that they had any resolution to them?
They carefully studied to see how low they could go with pay and then leave a threat on the table to intimidate the union. I know they were shaking in the boots while surrounded by the braintrust in Tulsa. Thank God, they at least saw the light and stopped TW from going to the things. I wonder why that happened, could it be that she got caught in one to many lies?
It boiled down to "here's a bunch of money for the junior pilots and we will continue to screw you on every other thing we can and have been doing." That is the companies "comprehensive package."
The main thing we have going for us this time is that that tub of lard that sold us out the last time is gone and we have good competent negotiators this time that know what we want. I really wonder how much he got paid to push that on the pilot group. Of course they aren't going to send a piece of garbage out to vote on, WE DESERVE A LOT MORE THEN THEY ARE OFFERING. This is our time to stand together and make this place a better place to work, even if it means that those sitting at a desk don't rake in all the money their greedy little hands can try to get.

Dude, I owe you a beer if we ever layover at the same place! Great post and spot on.
He is more concern about his personal stuff than he cares about pilots or work. He only answers his phone if beer is involved! From my friends that are still there they tell me he never answers his phone. When he was in transition training he should have been the best student the instructor had ever seen, but he never showed up knowing the memory items or flows.
Fixed it for you. Couldn't happen to a better person. He wasn't even qualified to run a jackhammer let alone be the Standards Captain before. He is absolutely a f'kup and the DO keeps covering him like a jimmy hat. He most have dirt on someone!
A quote comes to mind.
"maybe I should be a truck driver. Hey Mav you know the name of that truck driving school, Truck Masters I think it is. I might need that number" well here you go 1-800-328-7448
Ass kickings will continue for him unfortunately! I flew with him when he was the union EXCO. His phone never stopped ringing! He was constantly trying to keep pilots out of trouble and save their jobs. I'm sure that is what he is doing now. He is the only one qualified to be in management there now!

You continue to be so pathetic to believe that TW gives a crap about you.
He was one of the first to laugh in disbelief that a hack like you could get hired at Fed Ex.
I guess maybe it's not too hard to believe because you are just showing the same kind of misjudgment you always displayed in the cockpit.
TW is as much qualified to be in his position as you are to be in a cockpit.
Keep drinking your delusional kool aid some day it will catch up to you.
And if WhereRwe was to ever find himself in the same layover city as you I hope he is smart enough to run if he sees you coming, you were always such a pain in the a.. To be around cause you never shut up.

Those in said positions meet the qualifications of the ownership. That's the deal. Unfortunately the location of the corporate office limits individuals that are extremely capable of considering such or applying for those positions.
