I thought you just said you never drink!?!?

D'ya fall off the wagon today?

 

Sober me is scary enough. Even to me.

And schedulers who call me at 2am. They are probably pretty freaked out over there.

 

A step in the right direction...

I wonder if the 142 who voted against were doing "union work" and on Flight Pay Loss?

Any stats on those who voted against?

I only ask because I'm curious how hard the union is fighting against it's constituents.

 

Yesssss!

And yeah, they were fighting the constituents really hard... the most shameful example of Jim Crow voting shenanigans I've ever seen.
Meeting downtown where commuters have hard time getting there.... oh, of course there's some weak excuse that they tagged it onto another meeting, where it didn't have to be.
Proxies limited to 3, hand carried
Proxies not allowed to actually VOTE on the issue, just GIVE their vote to proxy holder.
ALPA emails sent to all, distorting the claims against SLC chair into a TA issue.
ALPA emails offering to carry only "No RECALL" votes by proxy, not EVERY UNION MEMBER'S vote who desired to fairly cast one.
Numerous emails sent out via ALPA by all and sundry, but only messages from them on "No lobbying for or talking about recall on company property!" messages to address the other side of an issue ALPA itself should be silent on and let proceed fairly.

This looked to me like a dictator using all the power at his disposal to stay in power. I was absolutely, totally disgusted. No single thing I have seen in 15 years at Delta has so turned me away from ALPA.

 

I voted against the recall because I could not find a justifiable reason for the recall. I have never done ALPA work, just a line guy. Sadly at the meeting today many who spoke simply voted for recall because they did not like the Capt Rep or that is at least what they said. While there are several reasons to recall someone not liking them is not one of them. At any rate, I was one of the 142.

 

Your vote, vote any way you want, for any reason you want.

You're paying several thousand a year to vote as pleases you and all those others paying their dues get to vote for whatever pleases them or against whatever displeases them.

 

Joanne's husband dropped dead of a heart attack a few years back...for what it's worth.

 

2 months in a row they've released the captains' side of PBS and then pulled it back the next day. The captains are still accessible via the AUG to SEP back door, still no FO schedule (at least on my category).

 

Usually 24 hours after the captains.

 

I was only making note of the fact they took down the primary means of getting the captain schedule. Just weird that they'd put it up then take it down 12 hours later.
