Don't forget "it doesn't matter how we got here". They teach that one at all the best MBA schools. Managements around the country live by it. We're just the first to have had it vocalized.

haha I saved that in my personal email so anytime I forgot how they viewed employees here I could refresh my memory. Now for your viewing pleasure

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The staffing and our operation has reached a critical mass this week (ie maintenance issues, increased flying added at the last minute, commuter clause users, sick calls, personal issues, extended training for some pilots-new hires and upgrades, ground damage, weather, too much open time left from the original bid run, PBS issues, people not following the FOM policies, etc.).

We have recently caught the attention of both of our mainline partners at the highest level. It is important that we all work to pull the operation up this week and weekend.

I would not be asking for your highest attention to this issue if it was not critical. I know at times it may seem unbearable recently to come to work but it is important you push through this and help to improve our operation now.



It doesn’t matter how we got here but we need to show ASA runs a quality on time, reliable airline to our partners without delay. You do a great job and your attention to our operation is appreciated before, now and in the future.

Jerry is in denver. Possibly a TA being finalized or maybe our negotiating committee proposed something in the contract that involves Skywest SAPA. Something is going on good or bad.

I miss SH's 11:00pm post cocktail hour e-mails. Considering the late time they were received, I actually understood them. It wasn't until I sobered up that I realize that they made obsoletely no sense. :eek:

And YES, best quote ever is the "Doesn't matter how we got here..."

Seeing as how the MEC put out an update that negotiations have been slowed significantly due to all the "recent changes in the industry lately", it decreases the chances of a TA, or an AIP.

Never mind the fact that all the JNC updates STILL showed the most important sections STILL in negotiations.

Too bad your side doesn't understand how negotiations work....Now the industry standard will be even further south of what we currently have...Watching the legacy XJT folks is like watching amateur hour....

In this case they are...I think everyone can admit that the XJT side of the house is the more militant side and wants more out of the JCBA...Problem is, that isn't how things work in the real world......Industry standard is moving backwards while these cry babies stomp their feet in the corner...Oh well, they will soon learn....
