Please, tell me who you think I am! I unblocked you for a time to see if you would answer how you know who is picking trips up at draft and AVA by watching open time since only management has access to the pay code for the trip. Still waiting for the answer.

To point out the obvious, Fedex pilots are the only unionized group, at least in the USA, this gives an even great incentive to the company to ensure that we, the black sheep of Fedex employees, do not win at the table what the company can (convince) the rest of the non union team, we could have had without a collectively bargained agreement.

Well, the MEC chairman stated that the NC chairman was free to negotiate what he thought was best for retirement. This was said in a PUB meeting in July. If you don't believe me, ask your rep if they told the NC how they had to proceed with regards to retirement. Believe what you want.

Yeah, of course you were.
Then you know that the question that was asked was something like "when will the MEC vote on our retirement proposal to send to the company?" Again, the answer was something like "The openers were the proposal and the NC has the latitude to pursue the path they think is best." So who is steering the retirement ship? The MEC voted to include industry leading rates of pay in the openers, not industry leading compensation. They can be specific on that, but when it comes to improving our A plan, they are passing the buck.Still waiting on your answer about how you know that a trip is picked up at AVA or draft over OTP, M/U, or some other code?

it’s actually fairly easy to do. For AVA a lot of times right after the AVA 7 day window opens those trips get picked up. I mean sure someone could all the sudden pick up a trip at exactly 7 days at straight time. The other thing is inside the assignment window a trip goes to closed time and that persons calendar doesn’t have reserve or a sub bar. CRS will also sometimes put a REL bar leading up to a trip on someone that doesn’t sit reserve.

DIND DING DING DING……. We have a winner. Or just look at that pilots calendar if it not blocked due to the embarrassment they would face when called out.
