Negotiating updates
#61
I like staying home on days off. Pretty soon it’s golf season. I’ll make a post. Hit a couple drives. Check the forums. Make a post. More drives, maybe a 3-wood or chip if there’s time. Go home and drink a beer.

2 engine taxi with the APU running is no where near “illegal”

Dude, I am on your side.
If the company can convince a mediator that a job action is taking place we will not be released to strike. Taxiing 3 engine with the sole purpose of "showing them" is a job action. Understand?

Gentlemen it is simply greed with some of the guys that want to help out sprinkled in. I can’t tell you how many times they called me this summer to do a turn out of DCA not once did I call them back. If you think this greed is fun wait till we have a TA. I have a feeling it won’t favor the top guys as much as they think (vacation bidding and all of that) should make for some good debates but I would be glad if we were debating that vs this.

I think the “that’ll show them” was sarcasm... but that’s just how I took it. But yes i smell what your stepping in.

Being released to strike will be another 2years of zero progress in mediation. That’s a big pill to swallow. Guys that have 20tl give at a Legacy are gone by the time that happens. Maybe that’s the the company negotiating strategy. Get the middle earners to leave.
If we had a TA I’d say pick up and help out who cares. This is a labor dispute. If you were in a dispute with someone would you be helping them out?

Can’t some kind of protest claiming non cooperation be sent to the mediator? Even if it does nothing immediately, can’t be used as official evidence later down the road? I would hope our people do not let a single opportunity to inflict a Papercut go without action.

I hate to break it to you, but the NMB flat out said to Spirit that they will not release anyone to strike.
You are under a rebublican administration and if the NMB did release you, it would look like a failure on their part not to have done what they are supposed to.

Who knows who will be in the White House in 3-4 years when we are still negotiating and vote for a strike ;-)
