Mesa and 418 pilots SUCKS

No pay raises

HELL NO *** guys no F'ng excuse

JO must be thrilled

 

The race to the bottom continues. Good job to the fabulous 418.
Last ditch effort by the pilots before Mesa goes belly up. At first I felt bad for Mesa pilots. Now I really don't. Who do those 418 think they are?

Only 5 more days til they are delisted.

 

Thanks man, what a refreshing point of view. Maybe if we had more people in this industry like you we could could actually start making some changes around here.

Let this thread be proof that just because we work for Mesa doesn't mean we're all bottom feeders trying desperately to undercut the industry and steal everyones jobs away from them as we are often made out to be on this site. Many of us (400 to be exact) want drastic change and are trying to force such change from inside the company. If anything I would think Mesa bashers would sympathize with many of us as we are trying to exact change around here and
make Mesa a decent place to work. Most Mesa pilots that regularly post on this forum have spoken here, and all have said they voted no to the ratification of this TA. We're trying guys and working to improve something is much more meaningful than sitting behind a keyboard and bashing it hoping it will go away. I just don't see Mesa going away anytime soon and even if it did, I guarantee you there would be another to take it's place. There always will be. So although we may have lost this battle by 18 votes, the war still rages on and will until this place changes for the better, or goes under. I'm proud to be part of the Mesa 400 and proud to see other Mesa pilots who have stood up for what they feel is right and just. I can assure you I'll keep at it as long as I'm here.

 

How much truth is there to this? I tried finding info but couldn't find anything.

 

They aren't going to be de-listed. Nasdaq dropped the de-listing requirement temporarily until Jan, even then JO will be able to pull a rabbit out of the hat just like he has done with every other Mesa issue. Mesa I think will be around anyways even if they downsize, they're too cheap not to have around.

 

too bad Mesa is on the NASDAQ

 

ALPA seems to think it was a good deal.

Mesa Pilots Ratify New Contract with Significant Gains: Financial News - Yahoo! Finance

 

Listen, I just play the game. I have no control over what management does with their money and capital. The only thing we can control, I would have truly voted no. As much as you think the idea of whining behind your keyboard and calling anonymous people scabs help you, it does absolutely nothing but separate pilots. We have to be united to get anything done. Look at what has happened with this TA, the boards made it seem like it was going to be a landslide NO, 20% of the eligible pilots didn't even vote! And the rest said YES!
