If we are going to attack(and rightly so ) the management negotiator for not being available for schedule talks, and purposely missing schedule meetings then we best not be hypocrites. We have been delayed long enough....

Somehow I don't think they are going to cut me a check for past due wages for what is coming up on 3 1/2 years. Grrrrr.

Our other labor groups have "ME TOO" clause in their contracts and this is a way around that...I am not saying I buy all this bull$hit but it sounds as though they are looking at ways to get this done.

Well, I for one am seeking FULL retro..and being just back from furlough and a solid B scaler, it is not a dollar issue for me..it is simply an ethics issue..if you are not gonna pay back retro..then why even have an amendable date on the jcba? these clowns have dragged this out WAY to long...get a big ass subway sandwhich, a couple gallons of starbucks..lock the door and you COULD have a jcba in 3 to 4 days! jmho..

I love it. JP has turned his back on us multiple times since the engagement yet the one time JH makes a move you're "looking forward to our next unilateral action."
Sometimes unilateral action is better than inaction. I am sick of working for slave wages while JLo lines his pockets and ruins the airline.

It is - Thank You!
Why is it that JP is always the last to know and the last to the party. Does he really think this gives him some kind of advantage over the process. He's played this card several times now and at best he comes off as being very slow. Why don't you ask him to get involved with the pilot side of the process and to stop working the company side. He's used his position to delay JCBA and as a result kept money from going in our collective pockets.
He works for Jeff - Not You!
