Fellow Spirit Pilots:

National Mediation Board member Puchala, assisted by senior mediator
Zach Jones, recessed negotiations at 10pm this evening. Regrettably,
no agreement was reached. We now look to the NMB for direction in what
comes next.

We will pass along additional information as soon as it becomes available.
Fly safe, fly our contract.


Fraternally,

Your MEC

 

$60/hr. Capt. 27/hr.FO. maybe good for a 250hr. ERAU grad that needs 100hrs. of O.E. Just hope the public doesn't mind a a Buffalo incident every now and then. I think they lowered the bar so much that even the 2%'ers won't cross the line!

 

My new heroes!

COPENHAGEN - Scores of Carlsberg workers walked off their jobs in protest Thursday after the Danish brewer tightened laid-back rules on workplace drinking and removed beer coolers from work sites, a company spokesman said.

The warehouse and production workers in Denmark are rebelling against the company's new alcohol policy, which allows them to drink beer only during lunch hours in the canteen. Previously, they could help themselves to beer throughout the day, from coolers placed around the work sites.

The only restriction was "that you could not be drunk at work. It was up to each and everyone to be responsible," company spokesman Jens Bekke said.

Carlsberg had mulled a stricter drinking policy for years and finally decided to impose the new rules on April 1, prompting protests from the staff.

Bekke said around 800 workers went on strike Wednesday and around 250 walked off their jobs Thursday, resulting in interruptions to beer transports in and around Copenhagen.

Carlsberg's truck drivers joined the strike in sympathy — even though they are exempt from the new rules, Bekke said. The truck drivers are permitted to bring three beers from the canteen because they often don't have time to have lunch there.

The trucks have alcohol ignition locks preventing the drivers from driving drunk, he added.

 

Ummmm, Okay. Release?!?! Hello? NMB? what is taking the Board soooo long? frustrating

 

You must be from the instant gratification generation. They discuss previous weeks events on Tuesday.

 

previous weeks? I though this was 'get it done now' negotiation session? Luby said if nothing got done those two days, release would (most likely) come real soon. Its obvious mgnt has no interest in coming to the table with anything worth while at this time; and the mediator is labor friendly. So my question is; what's the deal?!? we don't have a contract, no progress this week, lets cut the crap and get this going already!

 

I guess that I should type very carefully.

On Tuesday the NMB meets and will discuss what happened this week during negotiations. Then they will decide.

 

And... the following THR they'll call for another and FINAL meeting to see if we are getting released.

We will get a final word, the day that NK has vending machines to take a leak or crap on the AC's.. SOON!!

 

Actually I should probably READ carefully! But its pretty obvious nothing happened, so Tue huh? Okay, thanks
