IMHO, we had WAYYYYYY more leverage prior to DOJ approval than we did when Pierce signed off on the B767 Grievance. As to where Pierce was during the DOJ process.... dunno. Good question.

Seems to me like there is PLENTY of blame to go around with leadership on both sides of the union house. My response was to the suggestion that Wendy had us on some sort of perfect path that was derailed by Jay Pierce... which I find ridiculous.

Based on your past posting & grenades, the "Royal 'We'" is not something you should use. Unless you have more than one voice in there......

If you are trying to pick a fight, I don't have time. See if somebody else would like to play!

dexim,

It is an internal company database. It is essentially an employee directory that shows name, department, photo, company e-mail address, work location/mail code and the contact phone number. In the case of the phone number, for pilots and flight attendants it is the number of their direct supervisor. There is no "personal" information in there to worry about that I can see. There is no access to my home phone number, my home address, my personal e-mail account, social security number or other pay or benefit information.

Dex,
No, I'm not. I'm simply saying that with your unique personal opinions, you should not attempt to speak for anyone else

The only "personal info" info outside the items mentioned above would have to be inserted manually by the employee them self. The ONLY item that the employee is able to self-enter would be their "Cell Phone Number". To date, I have seen VERY FEW (Pilot's) who opt to add this info. However, there is a field for a thing called a "pager", but the last time I saw anyone use one of those devices was decades ago when most likely Dex had a full head of hair

As stated earlier.....There is NO PERSONAL information (outside of name, photo, BES, and supervisors contact) unless added by the employee them self by way of a Cell contact.

Another Conspiracy adverted.

That information was used to create a list of known scabs at CAL. What is the purpose of allowing access to other employees?

Don't see a need for a open database like this if it doesn't serve a purpose.

So, the Capeesh are the good guys? See you are on the 757 - Plan on staying in EWR or moving down to IAH.

Depends on who talk to regarding the data base....
As it's available to EVERY L-CAL employee, anybody can look up anyone regarding their employee picture....No different than the photo on the front of your ID Badge. I've even heard of some pilots argue the fact that it serves as a second layer of "safety/security" in which to verify "someone" if there's doubt of who someone presents them self to be w/in the L-CAL system....Again NO personal into as mentioned earlier.

As far as base, how do you know I'm based in EWR to begin with??
