Please tell us that this was a flame bait post, and you’re really smarter than this.

I’ve been flying for 37 years, and I see that this thread has devolved into the same old crap. What a surprise.

Maybe this will help.

My sources tell me OBAP isnt happy about AVIATE. They are PO'd about the "financing piece." I guess they want zero APR, or free money or something. OBAP REPS....Please provide your comment and put this to bed. Evidently there's a big meeting with OBAP peeps and Kirby. Would love to hear a recording of that meeting or the notes. If my intel on this is wrong please comment.

makes you thankful for the HR folks..this thread is ridiculous.

HR? The people who brought us the working together guidelines?

Bingo. Thank God we work at an ALPA represented carrier and can’t get steamrolled like some folks can by HR.

I think the steamroller is coming. I'd bet money on it. Let's not forget all the great pilots sh1tcanned by "entrance exams" over the years. Another HR wet dream.

Meanwhile, the cheerleaders cheer (and self-gratify) while admiring their paystubs and W2s.

Good point. I was referring to HR in the broader sense: meaning how they can come after employees who don’t get on board with some hair brained policy. At least we get to have a rep in the room to combat the nonsense.

Death by a thousand cuts comes to mind. And by a thousand votes. Checkers and chess. Over and over......

what scenario does the steamroller approach this time? Consolidation?
