By the way I like you say it will be GJ pilots that will be screwed THIS TIME.... so you're agreeing that TSA was screwed the OTHER time huh??

And from what I have heard from GoJet pilots, alot of them wouldn't mind picking up the 145 flying from TSA. You guys strike and that might be the end of TSA. Yeah they might call us scabs and stuff, but if GoJet was to get all of TSA's flying, I seriously doubt that they would turn it down.
You guys might be holding the line, but don't realize that you might not have a job if you strike. While you guys are on strike, all the flying will be transfered to GoJet and you guys will all be on permanent furlough.

If GoJet had no future, then why would ASA endorse it and recommend it's furloughed pilots to go there. United- their union tells their furloughed pilots to go there. GoJet has been around for a couple of years now, despite all the so called talks and being called scabs. If I was a betting man, I would say that no merging is ever going to happen and no strike is going to happen as well.
Yea, they might call us scabs and stuff...
...and stuff?! Is your view of this industry that myopic? Please tell the peanut gallery how many GJ pilots you've actually talked to and and how many share your point of view?

From a Trans States guy, i don't think the line is that blurry....And if we find ourselves on strike, it'll be even more clear. Personally, i'd love to add a few names to the scab list, just to see who goes to work...

My point was misconstrued. A strike is not blurry. But this guy says he'd set the brake and walk if it came to that, yet GoJet pilots continue to fly knowing the story as it stands.
There was never a strike - so no one is a scab per the definition. But my point was to cast some light on the blurry nature of the fact that these guys continue to fly - and even worse, TSA furloughs are going over there to fly.
If I had to guess, it was popular to complain about GoJet while at TSA, but now that they've crossed over, all of a sudden it seems so much more defendable.

[quote=Purpleanga;576838]That is absolutely not true both sides have been in talks for a long time, their union has no interest in taking over TSA, but up until now it was the TSA side that never wanted it. It's becoming apparent though that Hulas doesn't want to give a fair contract.
And frankly GJ pilots don't really have a say, the "union" minions work for Hulas. If he says the word, it will be done. Both sides need something. And yea the union thing is a joke. Which union is going to support you guys, the local trash hauler, car dealers, tire sales union? I'm sure they care a lot about you guys.....[/quote]
...and you can plainly see what YOUR Union did for you about...let's see...what was it......like almost 4 years ago????

I work here and can definitely say BS to this statement. YOU may fly struck work but there are a helluva alot of people here that WILL NOT. Speak for yourself and NOT the pilot group mmmmmmmkkayyy
