Website crashed...
 
Wonder if ALPA websites crash at the end of a vote? Please excuse my ignorance:eek:

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? :eek:

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.

Wonder why 66% of Skywest pilots think that they do not deserve to be the best paid regional pilots in the industry. 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.

Ask again when we have a year under our belts with this TA. Then lets look at my W2. And my QOL. Still better then my friends at other regionals before this TA...

That’s what I have tried to tell people as well, but some won’t listen unless your opinion matches theirs.

It’s the same group of people that complain about everything here. Literally no pleasing some.

Bull-loney
There is no need for a DDOS because every Tom dick and Harry is logging on anyway at the same time.
Same thing happened every 24th when bids were published and we essentially “DDOS’d” ourselves.

Amazing that 14% of people didn't even bother to vote

WesternSkies 10-17-2018 08:10 PM
Thanks everyone for the turnout. It is good to see so many people interested.

TheFly 10-17-2018 09:07 PM
