We'll really get 'em next time."

Tinfoil hat might be getting a bit itchy there, Carl.

I don't remember ever seeing an entire opening position being made public. Tidbits are usually let out, but that's it.

Oddly, you chose not to mention him hopping on the "rumor express" either, WHICH IS WHAT THE REFERENCED POSTS WERE DISCUSSING!!!

Grow up.

But TheManager did indeed mention it in his post. That's why I reposted it for you and bolded it. I'll do it again:

Since you didn't respond to that at all, I viewed you as selectively responding. If you didn't mean to do that, then I apologize for thinking you were selectively responding.

Don't think so. I said this because it is exactly what happened at NWA. Right down to saying that we'd have to have new elections. It was a good strategy for NWALPA. It scared a lot of people into voting YES.

We've had a point by point document showing exactly what we were asking for.

You are correct, he did mention it in a post. It happened that it wasn't the post that I referenced. I have neither the time nor the inclination to respond to every comment of every poster every time I respond using a quote.....You don't do that either.

Apology accepted.


In summation of everything Carl and Shiz say to each other:

Carl: I want a better contract, ALPA can't get it done.
Shiz: I want a better contract, DPA can't get it done.

I just hope I can sling gear for you at least once after that dang fence comes down!!!(and I'm senior enough to bid it!:D)

Take a look at UCAL. It might not be the entire opener, but it's pretty detailed. No, we probably won't see the whole thing, but you can bet there will be enough "strategic leaks" to get a picture of what's going on. Neither side will want us to see the whole picture, unfortunately.

If it wasn't clear (it likely wasn't), that is what I'm saying. :)

Awesome resolutions passed in dtw, hopefully the mec takes it and realizes it's a serious issue.

7. No Scope Relief----That the Delta*MEC commits to not granting further scope relief, including in the upcoming contract negotiations. Passed

It had better not get to them and there be "no action taken"!!!!

The MEC might just make that policy. Pilots need to be SURE they make their wishes known in the contract survey.
