WD you make it seem as if the US pilots were DIRECTLY responsible for the shortcomings of their Corporation. Pilots are married to their respective airlines. We operate Co. aircraft and provide safe transport for OUR customers We do not decide on business practices or capital expenditures..
You accuse the East pilots for choosing to work at US Airways, as if WE were directly responsible for the alleged demise of our airline...Therefore we should settle for a disparaging SLI that punishes those that have sacrificed so much in order to keep their airline afloat??
If in fact the Nic award is "FAIR", why has the west demanded its implementation at ALL COST??, while forfeiting a better cba and advancement possibilities.
Be honest with yourself and those that read these posts..Who brought the biggest POTENTIAL/ASSETS to this merger??
Seeing only that which you want to see and nothing that even resembles the truth. I accuse you of not honoring our agreement. Who you decided to hitch your wagons to is your business.
The east argues about fairness but had two years to put together something they felt was fair and did not. The east held on to DOH at all costs and that was even after the arbitrator said that was never going to happen. Then you come after the fact, after the you failed to get DOH and say lets make a deal? NO WAY JOSE not gonna happen!
I give you guys credit though you it costs millions to Seham to stall the process and cost many of the east pilots time and money. I use to hear many say " we dont want the money if the nic is involved" Well guess what, you dont have the money! Then you spend the last 5 years stealing what you failed to earn in arbitration all the while begging Parker to raise your pay to at the very least what ours is. His answer, NO WAY JOSE, contract or you get NOTHING! So you fully aware of the situation chose nothing.
Now in the end everybody on the planet except the east knows that the NIC will be the list submitted in any SLI with another carrier. Should no merger occur well then you will stay on LOA 93 until there is a contract and with that contract comes the NIC. So basically this is all really up to you., accept move on and get paid or stay and the bottom with the industries worst contract in the history of aviation.
