Not sure why you are so negative about this (LOA). It’s not earth shattering with either outcome, and it’s not “United” capping anything. This a proposal from our union to try and speed up the CBP.

Lots of people call out for over 250 straight before they start LTD. Being able to get paid 90 hours a month while you work thru a longer term medical issue seems pretty good to me. I don’t see how Delta’s is any better or worse, just different, I’m not an expert on Delta’s plan though. If there was anything I would like from Delta’s contract it is their green slip construct (especially for reserves).

It's math. It takes us 42 months just to accrue 250 hours of sick time. Almost 4 years for us to accrue 250, and that's without getting sick during those 42 months. Takes them 12 months max to reset back to 250. I can't grasp why some folks say ours is better. It's not. During that same 42 months it takes us to accrue 250 hours, DAL pilots have over 1000 hours available to use.

This isn't on the MEC Chair. This is on the reps that voted in favor. Hopefully the results of this vote snaps them back to where they their focus needs to be.

The MEC Chair didn't sell this POS LOA to the MEC. The R&I committee and the NC did. And the majority of the members of the MEC voted for it, unfortunately. They were too focused on helping the lawyers out by calling another special meeting the day after the LOA was voted on to file BS Article VIII charges against a rep who's term ends in two months. Many of the reps that voted in favor of Article VIII charges were the ones that voted in favor of this LOA. They were too busy working for lawyers instead of working for the memebership they represent.

I don't think any Article VIII charges were voted on or brought in the most recent meeting, nor was a separate special meeting called the day after the LOA.

TLDR: The MEC Chairs do not have as much power as everyone seems to think.
