It could be two syllables but management "streamlined" it. It was a long, painstaking process involving all of upper management and a very expensive consulting firm. Their goal was to make it one syllable but somehow through all the work and expense it ended up being three syllables. Everyone involved was so impressed with the job they had done they are now trying to tackle a memo out to employees on how to correctly wash their hands.

Luis, I won't answer your questions for a simple reason. I don't work for you. Go ask Wood or anyone else on your MEC, they'll be happy to answer your questions. Whatever else your blanket accusation has covered, I'm not sure. Let's face it, you're the troll of trolls, who makes me look like a Sunday school teacher. So I doubt anyone really cares if you don't like me and don't think I have credibility. I certainly don't care what you think.

I don't even know you. I would give you the benefit of the doubt if I ever did meet you in person.

Anyway, it was you who came on here and made accusations. Then later it was you who said that apparently the XJT MEC got the word because now they are meeting. It's only you who is spewing these things. Which is why I asked you. Has nothing to do with who you work for. It's just a simple question that you refuse to answer for some reason. I suspect it's because you don't want to admit you are wrong again. It's not even that big of a deal if you were to be right about it anyway. I just want to know.

We are meeting in May with both sides and the company. No mediator. Happy?

With SKW Inc fixing to report a loss for the 1st quarter mostly in part to the weather related cancellations on the ExpressJet side of the company, I wouldn't expect any real advance in contract talks.

I would expect Inc to finally show its hand on what it expects to do with ExpressJet as the investors will surely be pressuring them to put an end to the loss making entity.

We had two reps resign and the MEC chairman resign (which created another rep position to become vacant), we have two other reps who are currently being recalled (voting ends in a week or so), we have a two new members of the negotiating committee (one of which is a chairman). We cleaned house over hear after being presented with a concessionary TA. It wasn't just one or two people.

Same team? Not sure why any pilot group hates another pilot group as much as you all hate Xjet. I don't get it.
