9E picketing; Whos walking?
 

A lot of y'all talk the talk. Are you walking the walk?

Vast majority voted for striking correct? Has there been any preliminary dates set for the event that has been disseminated to the pilot group?

This Friday at the Memphis Airport is the first scheduled picketing event. It is set up by the Pinnacle MEC, but everyone is welcome.

I am on a 4 day trip (not through Memphis) otherwise I would be there.

I start a 4 day on thursday and will miss it also, hopefully one of the events will line up with my schedule and I'll walk with you guys.

Yeah. Walk around in circles at the airport for a few hours on your 1 day off for the week. That'll show 'em!

FLY SAFE! ;)

is there an echo in here or do you just like to hear yourself type? We know already, ASA is better than pinnacle. Stop ****ing on our parade. Literally.

I never said that. Lose the attitude. I told you to learn from our MISTAKES and gave you a road map to success. Picketing is useless. It just "rallies the troops" and gives people an avenue to vent their frustration. I used to be a rep, and that is directly from ALPA's SPC playbook! Hit them hard and fly safe. 6 years is too long!

Didn't they just hire a bunch of new pilots? If they aren't union yet and picket, will they get fired? How long does one have to wait after getting hired to join the union? I am assuming it's the typical 90 days to 6 months.

A new hire will become an apprentice member when hired, 1 year after start of class they become an active member. Apprentice members are welcome to attend and help out but will not walk the line to ensure they can't be negatively impacted.

We encouraged probationary pilots NOT to picket.
