Thanks for the civics lesson. Once again, alpa has the penultimate government. I wish the USA could follow alpa's lead in all these kinds of things since it is such a perfect organization...

Not trying to be the grammar police, but the word "penultimate" is probably the number one malaproriately used word in the English language. It means almost the exact opposite of what most people thinks it means. But perhaps you ment it that way.

Tsquare,
Telling PG to stick isn't productive - although he is usually WAY OFF BASE (and I don't think he'll ever come off that position) on his whole commuting is a choice position (Ask all our DFW commuters (or any of the other LARGE bases DAL has closed over the years)). |

I also have no problem if we, as a pilot group, negotiate for more generous moving expense allowances. But when a guy gets hired, and continues to live in Timbuktu, then calls in sick because he can't catch his commuter flight, and our sick leave hours get cut as a result.... yeah, I've got a problem with that.

So it would be better for the company and/or the pilot group's pool of available company money come contract time if every single pilot availed themselves of the company paid move every single time they are diaplaced/base closed/etc? What would that add up to be and would it be more or less than the total cost of those portions of sick calls that could be fairly credited towards that kind of behavior?

Funny, I never heard anyone say anything like that....the paroxysm of the self absorbed to view those who disagree with them as lazy, stupid or uninformed is alive and well here. Well you must live in a closet because that is a very common statement/sentiment among the masses. |

Absolutely.
For proof you can look at the UAL/CAL scope proposals. They propose to return UAL's RJ scope from unlimited 70 seat to 50 seat jets. If you're not. Then PG has to body paint Alfa and Reroute.
