Default vaca canx

I’m going to be very careful here so that I don’t get into anymore trouble. Help me understand something: the company is asking for help for the month of October, and at the same time asking for contract concessions? Can this be true? Asking for a friend. oh, not to mention the hellish two years we’ve been thru, some of our boys overseas living in some sort of prison hell, in my opinion, our domestic boys extended seemingly every single day, our parent company making tons of dough, and I’m really not believing the reality we’re living in. I must be wrong with all of this. It can’t be true. back to football. go Clemson.

The value of taking vacation cannot be understated. Rest and relaxation is needed, in my personal opinion especially after this crazy last 18 months! Those 757, 767, 777, and MD-11 CAs and MD-11 FOs figured it out!

Is the company actually asking for concessions or is that hyperbole?

Political hyperbole. We are in negotiations.

If you believe this, you aren't listening. The company asking for concessions isn't just political hyperbole, just ask PM.

I was on that call, heard what PM said. Don’t want to rehash the specifics here in anonymous land. Sounds like a battle for sure, but overstating what was said to stoke political fire doesn’t make sense to me. I didn’t hear what you heard apparently, and that’s ok. I’m seriously invested (as we all are) in knowing the ground truth and making data-based decisions.

Frankly I’m glad he’s in the seat.

I heard him in a round about way saying he hears the anti pancake group and wishes we would be quiet as it ties his hands at the table. I hope this is true and the company hears it also and says "Why are you asking for pancakes if the crew force doesn't want it? Why are you wasting yours and our time?"

Frankly I wish he would resign also.

I kind of expect the company to have that or current book as their opening position. They aren’t just going to “give” us anything. We will have to work/negotiate for it.



Under no circumstances would I expect or vote for contract that has concessions in it.
