The company will try to play the game of modest increase in rates lowering the rules - be mindful of that. And if you think if we'd ever get these rates back - think WE should and WE can. It will take a fight, which will only be harder if too many of us feel "how lucky they are to finally make it to the majors!" I think we should all be prep'ed for a couple of NO's on the first TA's and maybe a little walking off the job. P.S. Sorry, overheard an inmature conversation in a crew room and had to vent.. |

Just a friendly reminder to all the drooling exRJ drivers out there.. The rates a great, but the rules are a million times more important. You can negotiate the rates, but once you loose the rules they are very hard to get back.

Heyas,
You have to remember that a lot of what gets posted from a certain crew is nothing more than "unofficial" crowd control. Nu We are still bent over. Certain participants are mainly here to provide a dab of Vaseline. |

And don't forget about when he compared us to janitors. :mad:
And this wasn't necessarily in his testimony... but don't forget about labeling our potential strike a "murder/suicide"... and then the whole turning the other employees against us thing. I could never have imagined that anyone could have such a complete lack of respect for what we do. :mad: That was a very dark time and I'm glad it's behind us. The attitude towards us by the other employees was absolutely appalling. By far the worst thing I think I've ever seen in all of my career. I hope none of us ever see anything like that again. EVER.
