DALPA Needs to Put On Their Helmets
 
Don't shoot the messenger. What I am about to report is already known to the Company. (Believe me, if someone in a position to know told me, someone in an even higher position told someone at the Company. There reallly are no secrets.)

DALPA has their panties in a wad. The results of the survey came out with a 30% pay increase average. (I put 99%, how many people did it take to lower my number?) It seems that DALPA is all unglued that they may have to actually do some work at the negotiating table. They were expecting to deliver 10% and declare a victory. Now they actually have to do something or lose their FPL.

I'm going to ask Tebow to pray for us.

The girls have their helmets. Do you have yours?

There, all bases covered.

Nobody's gonna shoot the messenger because he posted those pics. I'm gonna shoot his credibility. Cite a source other than just your rumor mongering. 'Till then... naaaaaah ain't buying any of it. It's laced with DPA flamebait.

My instuctor in AI told me that I would never forget the answer to this question. He was right. Now I have a picture to go with it, too.

I was just trying to change the subject.


Ok, let's change the subject.

Giants and Saints tonight? Who's gonna win??

Place your bets!

And on the Wow moment? I would think any DC 9 driver would have one, as soon as he steps into...anything else! :D

Talk about getting hosed, geeze, pushed of a 40 year old DC 9 to a... MD90, 737-800 or A320. Let's see...that's a pay raise AND a newer jet, right?

I wish I could get screwed like that, just once!

Yes, but it's always been about speed. And for now, the airplane still wins the race.

Well.. with a new contract, and better payrates a coming.. and the downsizing that is continuing, you might get pushed onto a 737-900ER and make mo money than you are now. :D

As soon as my last kid is off my payroll, I'll be flying what ever lays over in St. Marten! ;) And I might not make pickup... :D
