What the hell are you talking about? I am flying a three day trip at the end of this month that has nine hours block but pays 15.45 due to the ADG. The FAs are flying the exact same trip and it pays them 13.45. We get two hours more pay for the same trip for one reason only--we have a contract that stipulates it.

Do you always find the black lining in a silver cloud?

(My NO vote is already in, by the way)

No vote in. I don't like the "selection not displayed to preserve anonymity" on the receipt page. Looked at the eballot website and it has varying levels of transparency including a fingerprint trail. I would like all the reps get to look at the fingerprint trail. I can't believe that it would cost anything.....it is part of their service. Of course, I also can't believe that I am this paranoid about my own union.

How LAME is this MEC? Totally incompetent.

I want to see a list of all the names on the Strategic Planning Committee, and the NC. ALL of those guys, MD and the YES voting LEC guys need to go back to flying the line for a few years, see how the other half lives.

Some of these guys probably have some serious concerns about their medical given the new neck size and BMI metric. Might be another reason for the crying and yelling.

Let's look at the bright side. If this POS gets passed, the next TA DALPA comes up with will probably make this one look like the gold standard.

If we had 4:45 min day you'd see 8 + 4:45 + 6 = 18:45

What perzactly "Field Grade Moon" mean?
