It appears if we vote no well just have to go to the crew rooms to do it.........that's basically it. distance learning is coming regardless of the vote.

(This is how I interpret it)

Whoever screamed "oh my god" over the potable water needs a case of beer. That was awesome,lol

Yeah, someone asked "what will happen if we vote the LOA down"

Bendo answered that basically they still move ahead as planned and pilots will have to come into a classroom in base and work on their iPads in the classroom.

Also no base openings or closings in 2015 but things will be "reanalyzed" for 2016.

I see no reason to think they won't follow through, so the question now is, can we vote no and get another LOA restoring days off?

Agreeing to this LOA and thereby 'taking home' this work is their goal.

Our management will not give us a cent unless their collective backs are against the wall. Guess what, they signed this LOA because they are getting the better end of the bargain.

That's why I don't bother to listen to the calls. Always someone asking about airplane cleaning, etc.

I couldn't believe he asked that. Then I thought, well maybe he was just asking such a question to try to be funny? If not, I'm sure he is a bundle of joy to fly with lol!
