Carl can ask for whatever he wants. Changes to our vacation, sick bank, and other work rules is a nonstarter.

That moron doesn’t seem to realize this is the best pilot market in decades and he is in no position to ask for concessions. I’ll vote no to any TA that has concessions and isn’t a home run for this pilot group.

That was a huge give back to the company. It has personally cost me thousands of dollars already. Yet nobody seemed to care when a few of us brought it up prior to the vote.

Very true.

It has also cost me many thousands of dollars.

And all of the give backs were rationalized with arguments very similar to the arguments that were used very recently by the Alaska pilots to rationalize their yes votes. It also didn’t help that our former SWAPA president, who many in our group fanboi’d over, told everyone he was voting yes: “If it’s good enough for JW, it’s good enough for me “ and “What? You don’t trust JW?” became somewhat of a mantra in response to just about any questioning or critiquing of the TA.

Good thing he destroyed what little credibility he had left with me with his last drive-by on the other forum. Some people never seem to know when the moment has passed.

Plan on more give backs. I am willing to bet my left nut our sick time will be reduced.

Why give back anything?! It’s simple. Exhaust the provisions of the RLA and then walk. They can’t keep us from walking forever.
