In this case I am told (by web board sources) that a negotiator and MEC Chair accepted a deal that was below MEC direction. However, it is significant that the MEC then accepted it. The MEC could have struck it down and the pilots could have struck it down. None did, so it is a deal.

I see this as more of a demand, offer, and compromise agreement. If the counter offer is accepted, it does not much matter what the demand was.

Since there is nothing we can do about the past, other than learn from it, then you need to provide guidance to your Reps. If you feel the protocol issues (perhaps engaging in negotiations outside the scope of one's authority) is significant enough, perhaps you might tell your Reps that you don't want that person to serve in a similar capacity, or in a position where they are in contact with senior leadership directly representing the pilots.

My point is, the past is the past. Better to look forward.

Now you've done it.

Pulp fiction was one of the top 10 movies of all time. In fact, Tarantino hasn't made a movie that isn't in the top 50...except dusk to dawn and that was Robert rodriguez's fault.

Sorry. I didn't find any redeeming qualities to the movie whatsoever. A guy getting his brains blown out in the backseat if the car is not comical by any stretch of the imagination. We will have to agree to disagree, but you can have the last word on it.

Ps. Tarrantino is a talentless hack.

From the Crew Resources Update:
Total block hours are up 1.6% from January 2012 to January 2014

From the Bid Monitor Report:
Total pilots required under the staffing formula January 2012 -- 9,219
Total pilots required under the staffing formula January 2014 -- 9,817
Total pilots required is up 6.5% from January 2012 to January 2014

What am I missing? We were told at the roadshows that C2012 would cost us about 125 jobs, given a static number of block hours.
