That’s a terrible analogy - wearing jeans on a DH harms no one, FedEx brand and reputation included. Smoking in someone else’s car, you’re liable to get your ass kicked.

Ah so you were the guy who asked the random person in the airport lounge (that just so happened to be our CP) if he was "the uniform police?"

 

No No No .. first I start off in my brief by telling them I do everything by the FOM and I expect the same of them.

Not sure why my leadership is coming into question by asking my coworkers if they're supporting the union. Wow.

 

You have every right to talk about union support on the flight deck.

ALPA just had a meeting today at the AOC. On FedEx property….. It’s part of our job. If people don’t like that then leave to a none union airline.

 

You are an absolute clown. UPS has the highest pay rates currently. End of story. Simple statement. We are not talking about forward projections but current fact’s. A projection isn’t what shows up on a pay stub. An actual ratified pay rate does. You’re constant divisive drivel is amusing and shows who you truly are. The laughing stock!

 

So you don’t poke a finger in their chest like you do on here. Imagine that you take a more civil tone when you’re face to face 🤔

My point is that if you address your crew like you do here you’re setting a terrible tone and likely pushing them away from supporting OUR team. You said yourself you’d fine a guy for not showing up at a union meeting (without asking why) or kick them out for not agreeing with your view. Cancel culture mentality.

 

Don't like that analogy, ok. What if you told them not to eat in your car. They did anyway. No food or drink was spilled. Nor residual odor from the food. The only reason that you found out was you found part of a straw wrapper in the car. The person you loaned your car to thought your rule was stupid, so they ignored it. No one was hurt. You and your cars' reputation weren't harmed. Would you loan the car to them again? Feel better now with a different analogy?

 

Says the guy with the big red nose.

United's last pay rate was effective as of January 1, 2019. Their contract has been amendable since then and they are still in negotiations. If they agreed to a 1% pay increase per year for the 777 since the last pay rate, they would be ahead of the final UPS pay rate. If you don't think that matters, you have achieved the impossible and made me think you are even more stupid than I thought possible. What you are suggesting is that if it takes three years to get a contract, we should only consider pay rates that have been ratified, regardless of how old those rates are.

Oh, you still haven't told me who I am. You say you know, but won't say. I know why, because like everything else you say, that is bullsh**.

 

My gosh, did I have to list all of the acceptable excuses for an absentee as well as detail an appeal’s process? LOL. It was an idea.

No. I never said I’d kick someone out of the union for not agreeing with me.

I said, if I were Chairman, I’d make these big meetings mandatory. Of course people will have valid excuses. My point is, if you don’t do what union members are supposed to do, why be in the union? Why should the union afford you the protections they provide if you’re not doing your part?

That’s my point. And I don’t think it is unreasonable.

I recently flew with a pilot who was pro pancakes. We had a good discussion about them. After our discussion the flight landed safely without any degradation in safety. This is what adults and professionals do.

I challenged FXlag because he knew more than he did. He played the, “I’ve got a secret” game why throwing the union under the bus. I’m not an apologist for the union but understand the challenges of why our meetings are not electronic. Let the process work. But in the mean time, get involved. These people volunteer. Yes we pay them but they put up with a lot more than I could eve deal with. And they do it to make sure the company doesn’t steam roll us. All I’m asking is that when they ask us to show up for a meeting that is held like once a year, we show up.
