I realize some of the current leadership is very good and we are lucky to have them. But to those that are management lackeys I say we clean house before they get an opportunity to do any more damage.
JA didn't have the authority to go on his own. If he did he should have been recalled immediately. If I remember correctly, he hung on as mec chair for quite a while after. If he did go out on his own, any status rep that didn't immediately call for recall needs to go.

Whatever happened to "the buck stops here"? Anyone that participated in the giveaway should have had the integrity to step down.

Shouldn't be hard to figure out. 4 of the 6 current reps I believe went for it. I may be wrong though so correct me if I am

Been here 9 months. Reserve. This trip, Day 1 was just dh from DTW to the overnight. I don't live in DTW. Called for an alternate deadhead to start the trip. Granted. Called back to ask about the ground transportation provider to get me to the hotel when I get there.
The scheduler told me that by doing an alternate dh, that cancels my hotel room and ground transportation.

1. Is this true?
2. Is this really true?

No but why are you in here asking? Call a rep or someone on the scheduling committee. They can fight your battles for you. We can't.

It does unless you tell them to leave the hotel....

Friends,

I'd like to take this opportunity to endorse a dear friend of mine, MH, for LEC 109 Captain rep. Now, I know that you people are incapable of seeing things my way and that is why Mike would be the perfect choice to represent you people!
When Mike was in training many many years ago, some guy told him that you either "lead, follow or get out of the way!". Well, some guy was right and now you have a true leader just asking that you recognize my qualities in him.
I feel that Mike will understand business much better than the other options, after all, he has several business ventures of his own that get bigger every time I talk with him.... I also like how he was the only guy in your group with the ability to start a helpful petition.
Anyhow, I'm off down to scheduling, to make sure that Mike, Kiwi and friends get no special treatment!

High five kids!

Anyone want to get even more ****ed off about our lack of a contract?


KALLITA F/Os are paid at a higher hourly rate than our CAs!

AWESOME!

I know you are being sarcastic in a way, however it only helps us who are negotiating (f9 guy here), the longer management wants to drag their feet the more it will cost them in the long run.
Personally I was thrilled for SWA contact, hoping dal, jbu and you guys get something soon.
