Beats trying to write a book. Kudos to your efforts there. Your points on Jetflyers are always well taken--when your name is visible your skill and intelligent arguments show. When you sling venom at guys going through divorce or being the king of snark hiding behind an anonymous screen name the points fade into just more noise.

My point on the latest was "pick your battle". I have heard another VP will be going to the MD-11 and get a seniority number. I guess we'll see...

If it is well known what is it, six weeks, six months, or six years? And is the VP of Flight Ops a non internal employee? Did the rules change for a Pro hired under one set of rules retroactively? Are any of us privledged to know the package the VPFO was offered when he was hired? Pretty sure he met the currency requirements when he interviewed. What do we lose by the VPFO getting a line number? And once again my question remains, what contractual change in contract 202X do you want to see that will prevent this from happening again?. This was the question that I asked that fired up Tony’s whiney snark machine. He and Pin have failed to answer it.

Tony also fails to answer how a provision that has never been implemented has cost us one hotel room or one sleep room to date.

Done with this thread Tony can tilt at imaginary windmills all he wants.

It's hysterical seeing you complain about someone being a whiney snark machine. Since you are done with this thread, see ya Mr, Q.

It’s unbecoming of you when you get down here and play in the mud with us peasants.
