We totally have the company by the balls!
Do you really think that they aren't five steps ahead of us? The RLA puts us at a distinct disadvantage and management is playing these negotiations like a fiddle. This is not the first labor dispute that Indigo has dealt with. We will be voting yes on another industry bottom garbage contract.

Explain the ideology, please. I'm not getting it. He already advocated illegal work action, as well as some sort of "new-age" path to a contract that he didn't care to elaborate on. So, basically, he's advocating accomplishing nothing, while damaging our bargaining position with the NMB...sounds like a winner to me.

They unilaterally reinterpret our CBA and we grieve it. We step a mm out of line, the company gets a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) in civil court - not an arbitrator - to stop us from behaving badly, and can take out their anger on the union's bank account. Ask any of the APA pilots who took matters into their own hands, violating a TRO in the process, during the American Airlines sick-out of February 1999.
The anecdote I've heard from someone who was close to the case was that, after the pilots defied Judge Parker's TRO, Judge Parker asked an APA rep what their assets were, and assessed an award essentially equal to that amount. "At the conclusion of the hearing, the district court announced its decision from the bench to award $45,507,280.00 in compensatory damages attributable to the defendants' conduct."

It's stressful being on this side of the RLA, but it must be followed. We talk about "unity"; we need to walk the walk behind our union leaders. Be ready to strike, but now is the time to do our jobs and wait for eventual release for self help.

Yes it is. Cincy is a great airport. So is the area... Greaters, Montgomery Rib Inn, LaRosa's, Skyline, and GoldStar. Love to see us expand big time there!
What would be fantastic is if they'd let me do the FA recruiting. I'd recruit on the UK Campus in Lexington just like a former Cincy airline once did...man, those were the days. Good times...and now back to reality
