Yeah, Trenery's A-hole leaves a pretty big stink trail. Keep sniffin, nothings coming.

Well the email finally came out and still no contract. Not that I am surprised. Apparently they made some more progress, but "a comprehensive agreement has still been illusive."

We will hear back once the next round has been scheduled :(

Your raise will come from all the money they have left over after they settle the lawsuits from the Colgan crash.

Lots of luck, at least your tax bracket will not change.

Actually, Pinnacle Holding made it clear in the past two investor conference calls that they're insured to 100% against anything (including negligence and associated lawsuits). This won't cost them a dime other than maybe some lawyer fees.

I might know who King Lear is...pretty sure he might be a guy who got fired before he finished probation...J.S.???

I do smell a contract coming very soon. Now, the problem is, is it going to get my vote. There are many things I will be looking for for it to get my YES. The biggest one is how big is my bonus check going to be. Ive been here for 5 years through the whole time the contract has been amendable. If we were to get retro pay I would be getting at least 25,000 bucks. So, with that I want to see at least a 10000 dollar bonus after taxes. I am cutting them a pretty big break. If I dont see that then its a NO from me.

No more freebee's Its your money that was owed to you and you deserve every penny after Uncle Sam take's his share. I understand the company's stance for the bonus.. but they are still coming out on top. Could you imagine if the contract was voted down because the pilot group wanted back pay.. that 1.2 mil uncle Phil made last year would be recalled by the board. He walked away with over 400K in bonus's.... at the cost of your labor.
