My summary:
It all adds up to why we can't get a JCBA is because the LUAL won't compromise (read takes reductions in work rules) from our current contract...

This constant berating of Captain Pierce is extremely misguided. The securing of PS was sanctioned by the L-CAL MEC. Some of you folks just can't accept that fact and have decided to wage the most illogical war against Captain Pierce.

You seem very unhappy. I know that there are a lot of moving parts right now e.g., TPA, JCBA, SLI etc. etc. but it's okay - we'll get through this episode in our careers. What is important is that we remain focused and professional airman dedicated to providing the best service possible to our passengers.

Try to refrain from calling people names or impugning their integrity only to justify an incredibly weak argument that somehow you have been disadvantaged. Instead, take the high road and keep a smile on your face and a spring in your step.

That is all - now get out there and help make UAL the best airline in the industry.

Hopefully you're pulling our leg, or you're absolutely clueless and DANGEROUS. Yes, I do blame MC Pierce AND the CAL MEC. I also blame dipsh!ts like you who allow this to happen. Just so you know, I'm not angry with you, Pierce, the MEC, or the company -- No anger issues here. Unless you are a flight manager, a flight doctor, or a crewmember, you should keep your questions about another pilots fitness to fly securely inside your cakehole.

You might want to start thinking about what you can give back next year to 'negotiate' profit sharing for 2012. Unless you think we'll have a JCBA by then...

After all the crap and disrespect we've been fed over the last 10 years, the very last thing we should be doing is helping this management in any way whatsoever. They get absolutely nothing but the minimum of safe operation from A to B. No JRM, no waiving the contract, sick call when sick, fatigue call when fatigued, no CH 9, every MX discrepancy written up, etc. And that has been my "normal individual working schedule and practice" for those of you worried about the injunction.

When we have a CBA with industry-leading scope, pay, and work rules, when Smisek and McDonald have been shown the door, then I MIGHT consider trying to make UAL the best. Until then, let them reap what they've sown.

Wondering how you would feel if our MEC went behind your MEC's back and secured a deal? A deal that will probably negatively affect the JCBA.
