Once the Global execs found out she was gone, a few of them made some phone calls and helped her out. It was a big deal as some of these accounts packed up and left United as well. The shares fiasco made it real difficult for the good CSRs to take care of the best customers. Something to do with making sure that CAL premiers were not disadvantaged over United global customers when it comes to upgrades. She was a victim of all the IT changes that came with shares...

As long as the membership gets to vote on the distribution, and approve it, so be it. If the contract states we will sort it out later, "at the discretion of the MEC". No way. UAL side has seen this movie before.

POS CBA'02 covering "PBS specifics" at the time of T/A ratification = "T.B.D."

The distribution, if it can't be worked out, has to go to binding arbitration per the ALPA regulations. This was put into place to prevent another stove piped job like we had at UAL 10 years ago. The real issue is how does JP see this playing out?

Both MEC's are in PHX today to vote on how to determine the signing bonus to be arbitrated and final decision NLT 5 nov. Also the same date that the TA is supposedly complete.

RETRO PAY is NOT a Signing bonus or Lump sum.
Retropay is the difference between the pay rate of the new contract and the pay rate of the old contract, calculated from the effective date of the new contract back to the amenable date of the old contract.

Can I get an AMEN? Anyone who votes for an agreement that doesn't include 100% retro is a sap and is willing to sell their skills for pennies on the dollar. 3-4 years this time will equal 4-5 next.

Amen my brother. Rule #1 says never negotiate with terrorists. I know James knows why.
