Default Website crashed...

Wonder if ALPA websites crash at the end of a vote? Please excuse my ignorance

I have no idea how this garbage could pass!! We are supposed to be the best pilot group in the industry, yet we accept lower pay because management sends threatening emails during the voting period. Wake up Skywest people.

SAPA is still trying to figure out how they can swing it...

Several “sources” claim it passed. By what margin I’m not sure.
I wonder if the ALPA website crashes after a vote?

I have it on authority from a high up source at SAPA that they are currently dealing with a DDOS attack on the website originating in Utah that they are trying to track down. Waiting on confirmation from IT specialist.

No, I don't think the company provided "adjusted total pay numbers" equal industry leading pay. The only way you can guarantee your pay is through your guaranteed hourly rate, not some fancy math that is predicated on company performance.

We just voted to accept pay cuts each year for the foreseeable future as inflation eats away at our income. Brilliant.

Please feel free to educate me on why I am wrong.

Well it would have to be someone who didn’t want the vote to pass, so probably not the company.

Expressjet had issues on their last vote, the site crashed when the vote was ending. They happen to be ALPA.
