I understand the way the grievance was worded and Pierce surrendering it would likely have a negative impact on you guys. You should look at that! Don't worry about the "tin hats".

The SLI is a "lil-ditty" that follows something called a JCBA. You may want to save your energy/focus on that....NOT attempting to police the 'other sides' perceived 'negative impacts' on it's OWN future SLI implications. However, we on the L-CAL side appreciate your concern on such the topic :rolleyes:

Food for thought.....Without those 'four' ratified letters-JCBA, we will NOT be seeing anything by way of an SLI as the letter of the law presently stands.

Horse before the cart "amigo(a)".

1) Capt Morse had a path that would have leveraged the company into a JCBA

2) Pierce is a side dealing (explective) who boned all leverage to get a JCBA

3) Pierce did this because he has a dubious past

THUS

1) Pierce was probably promised a management job by Abbott for getting Cal PS

2) Pierce will take this job in the near term

TO PREVENT ABOVE

1) Pierce must be thrown out by Cal pilots some of whom are scabs but nevermind the majority of Cal pilots will never 'get it' unless Pierce is tossed

2) Pierce will hold no grudge against Cal pilot group for throwing him out after securing PS thus will not go to management out of spite

3) Pierce will learn lesson and fly the line for the rest of his career

THUS
Company will cave and Contract completed in short order

However, to suggest that Capt Morse had some path to a JCBA is the joke of the year. The reason we DON'T have a JCBA is because Capt Morse totally dorked up the handling of our involvement with the DOJ at the beginning of this merger. To suggest that if Capt Pierce had acquiesced to the UAL MEC's preferred method of dealing with profit sharing we would be on the doorstep of a new contract is WAY out in left field. We might have an extended TPA, but it's RIDICULOUS to think we'd have a JCBA. Come on....

We don't have a JCBA because of Wendy is a stretch - Where was Pierce again?

Good to hear from you, again, I'm sorry I offended you boyfriend, LAT/LONG - No harm right? If you leave your address and phone number, I'll take it off my XMas card and contact lists.

Thanks - I'm surprised the company makes that database available for all to see - How about Phone# and addresses are they there?
