It is ludicrous beyond description and a perfect microcosmic illustration of how this company's management operates. Every day is like the first day in business at RJET.

My opinion of Jeff has nothing to do with the point. However, since you brought it up, I will say that opinions vary ever since he has taken it upon himself to become the face of the company's union-busting message; including lecturing recurrent classes on a certificate on which he is NO LONGER chief pilot for the sole purpose of spreading anti-union propaganda.

In my mind, this caused flashbacks to management telling us that we are advising our mainline partners on how to implement part 117 because Republic was "industry leading" on the topic.

The audacity of RJET management in insulting the intelligence of the pilot group never ceases to amaze me.

Regardless, the damage has been done by RJET's management. You can shear a sheep many times, but only skin it once.

Unless the sheep likes being skinned. Congrats to all those who pick up open time and help the company out.

Man if RAH pilots put as much work into getting a new contract as they did B******* on this site they would have the best contract in the industry!

Troll alert. RLA has us confined to never strike. Right now the company and union are working out a TA through private mediation. Word is that it will be fairly decent, despite the concessions at Endeavor, and PSA. If Eagle and Exoressjet hold the line we at RAH can get an increase to help raise the bar. Of course why do I even bother? You're just an ignorant tool.

Good god, you are crazy if you think that! We are only negotiating a handful of sections in our current contract. It's going to be a trainwreck. The "word is" it will be a big disappointment for anyone but FOs so they can get new hires in the door.

Put down the crack pipe! I've been here over 6 years and the eventual TA will be sh*t. No doubt about it.

I'll believe it when I see a TA that the pilots can vote on. Any "word" on a timeline for this to go through? Not a troll just trying to get a sense as to why nothing is getting done and all I see is a thread that is filled with nonsense and hardly any facts.
