Look you guys you don't get it and prob never will. Me getting to work only hurts my chances in ever moving on to a Legacy, you think I like this idea any better then you...well I don’t. What else can we do to stop this proliferation of regional and substandard pay? Strike---never gona be approved, fly safe---waste of time.

But when you can directly affect someone’s operation by refusing (politely I might add) someone the JS in the hopes to send a message to management, I say lets do it. I'll find another job...

Hey, Legacy guys you can leave me at the gate anytime you want to send a message I'll do what I have to, I’ll survive!

Read my last post Capt Tony...I know just about as much about nothing as you do...Creds, tell me where your leaving from and what gate I'll meet you there and I'll let you refuse me the JS...how’s that tuff guy, would that make your chicken chest fluff...

Look, were the idiots and management is laughing all the way to the bank. They want us at each other, it plays well for them...I have no beef with any other pilot, of any airline but this is a plan that would get there attention and have them shiiting in there pants...no Railroad Labor Section on this little nugget...and hey, "I tried to get to work just didn't work out"...Unity!

I’m not contemplating a JS war here just a strategy...think about it

O-well it’s the weekend and I’m up way to early so I’m out of here. Enjoy!

Wow. That's all I can say... just wow. I'm really looking forward to sharing a seniority list with you. :rolleyes:

XJT pilot

You're such an internet tough guy with way more internet braun than brains. Yeah, let's really give it to our parent company, who's actually profitable without a cost cutting program called Operation Greenlight, by starting a jumpseat war with OUR OWN COWORKERS! Are you f'ing kidding me?? Thankfully you are one of a kind and will most certainly fold like a little girl when you meet an actual SKW pilot in the B terminal. Hopefully you aren't a captain and are far from holding the left seat, but if you are one and deny me a jumpseat based on your distorted worldview I will gladly report you to your pro standards committee. Misuse of the jumpseat is grounds for termination so on second thought, deny anyway buddy.

BTW if this is flamebait, well done sir.

You can crash in one of the empty rooms at my McMansion that I'm able to afford because I don't give 1/2 of my income to the state of Illinois. Just bring a case of Shiner and throw a squeaky ball or two for the dog.

I'll have to take you up on that when the time comes :-)

I think there will be more than a few SKYW folks willing to go to IAH. When there was a small Brasilia base there the crews had a good time and Continental liked the product. I personally think it's silly for regionals to get territorial about their flying. After the Comair strike this is the reality. The flying will continue to be dispersed between different companies so that there is never a single regional covering all the flying out of a hub. I think the bigger and more serious issue is that United is having SKYW do 70-seat flying out of IAH. To me that sets the tone about how United management feels about Scope with regard to the merger.
