Since Kittens are not preferred, how about a puppy?

I'm with Index on this. Keep digging, Bar. (not that you have anything to worry about with moderators :rolleyes:)

Oh that's perfect. "Retired to pursue other opportunities." Always the consummate politician, that ACL. :rolleyes:

I looked just for fun. When it closed, there was 1 bid senior to me. That's not the case like on the 800 where I'd be a mid-senior line holder, but there were numerous pilots senior to me bidding it.

Why is that a problem?. If you owe someone $10/year for 4 years just because you give them $10 in year 4 does not mean all is well and good.

Wasn't the company supposed to maintain a balance all along? A balance that they contractually agreed to maintain?

Seems like an easy fix - if we averaged 3% behind for 3 years we should now average 3% above for 3 years - not just be "in compliance" going forward.

I liked an idea that was in the DPA survey. Anytime the JV balance is out of compliance then everyone gets an immediate 10% raise which stays in effect until compliance is regained.

Would you prefer; "has more important things to do" ?

So, we can stop flying as part of the JV; ie no Atlantic Ocean crossings, for a 10% raise? I'll take NFW for 10 Bob.
