Hey ... isn't cool for once they're giving us advance notice? Giving us an opportunity to chime in and be represented?

I say BRAVO!

Here's the problem with that Hockey. What good would it do to have remedies and consequences built into Section 1 when the company violates the current language at will, and DALPA gives them relief for the violation? Wouldn't DALPA just give them relief for the remedies and consequences if management asked? Maybe even without management asking?

By now it should be clear to everyone that we are now operating under the culture of Northwest Airlines...not the late great Delta Air Lines culture. As such, we need a fNWA type like Ken Watts to enforce every single word of the contract. EVERY SINGLE WORD. Unless and until we enforce every word in the same manner management enforces every word when it's in their interests to do so, then additional protective language will protect nothing.

Seems that the discussion of these terms should have been negotiated before temporary approval was granted by the MEC.

That's just me though.

Notice the dates on our "waiver". Gets the company through the summer.
How convenient.
Seems our MEC is scared of having too much leverage.

I'm going to say this again. Bar, you are a good man and I like you (not in a man crush way...just as a person) but you are deeply conflicted in your allegiance to an organization that doesn't represent you very well. Oh btw I am going to egg your house and steal your car....you can thank me now for communicating my intentions giving you the opportunity to chime in and be represented:rolleyes:
