PB's Letter - DALPA? Anyone? Bueller?
 

So what now? It's been a month since the special MEC meeting in ATL on Oct 27-28. We are to be uncompensated pay auditors for the compnay now in addition to being pilots?


We are still not being paid correctly for work we've provided to the company - Darren. When are these "solutions" (other than telling us we have to provide free of charge pay auditing service to the company)? You said tehcnology advancements? Dude we are still using a DOS based program for the majority of our scheduling functions. Meanwhile while we are NOT being paid for our work performed, the company is taking advantage of that float and pumps up their numbers for the street so they appear more favorable. What IS the solution Darren? I've not been properly compensated for work done over 9 months ago. I guess when I do finally get paid, it will be at 2022 rates????

Also, why did the "Union Letter" thread get closed? The synergy between C44 and the 4th floor is highly suspect. I question DH's motives. Where is the action from DALPA??

I've wondered the same thing (assuming this is for BP's memo). Is there really nothing forthcoming? If so, that's beyond disappointing.

FREE BEER! Tomorrow!

Since 2022 we have 38,100 (according to the ACE app) Ace reports filed. Also since 2022 we have 74k hours recovered. How much $$$ was involved here? How long did the company get the float on our unpaid wages for work we provided yet remained (intentionally) uncompensated? How much more unpaid wages are out there yet discovered? For mine, it was 2022. A GS (Int'l 6 day trip) that's some coin I didn't get paid. it was also paid at 2022 rates.

the lack of interest on this matter - at least here on APC - speaks volumes. Especially DH and his leadership. What are they (MEC) doing? What actions are being taken outside RLA and "educational videos"? At least from those crews I fly with, they are all concerned about this. Anecdotal yes, but I am curious, and concerned, about the apathy.

What did your reps say when you asked them about this?

HK has said before talking to reps is a waste of time. APC outrage is where it’s at.

Im not happy either. But I’ve talked my reps. There are irons on the fire. I hope they pan out, if not, you can bet I’ll be asking them on what’s the next step.

Did they give you a time frame for when these irons will be taken out of the fire and used? I think HK is somewhat correct here in that - meetings and emails and videos have gone out that amount to nothing over months. So calling my rep is going to fix this?

Everyone I talk to is concerned as well. My rep gave me an answer to my concerns alluding to a multipronged approach that will roll out in the coming weeks. I'll see what it is and judge from there. So far, not impressed with the messaging. I asked my kid whether DH's video looked like he was pretending to be angry or really angry and she said he's not pretending, so he's got that going for him. I'm less convinced.

Exactly this.

OK sure but didn’t we hear this months ago or at least a month ago? So “coming weeks” is how long? So far the roll out has seemed worse than milquetoast.
