Retro will hold up TA

In all fairness, unless you are an Airbus or Guppy FO on reserve, you probably chose to be where you are. Choosing to be a widebody pilot or narrow body captain and commute to be on reserve as opposed to being more senior on something a little less glamorous doesn't find much sympathy. If you are looking for it it is right between Shiite and Syphilis in the dictionary.

I guess I'm just old school. I'll believe it when I see it.

I want real information, real facts.
Tired of rumor this, and rumor that.
Tired of the "unofficial gag order."
Who ever heard of such stupidity? Really????
Why are over 12,000 pilots blindly following our reps, who are blindly following Piece?
Why don't we go for a freedom of information act request on all communications between CAL MEC, UAL MEC and the NMB to find the real scoop on this so-called gag order?
The NMB doesn't have the authority .............HELLO! The NMB can't unofficially order a cup of coffee. If they did, would the barista unofficially prepare it? Come on..............were the lemmings, not the knucklehead FO rep in LA.

As an FYI, the LA F/O Rep doesn't blindly follow Pierce at all nor does the other LA Rep or the IAH Reps. They've been fighting the ridiculous gag order the entire time its been in effect so you might want to do some fact checking yourself Knuckles.

..........Here is what I heard from a guy who's sister is dating a chief pilots cousin and she flew with a guy who sat next to a flight attendant who heard this from a guy who knows a bunch of stuff about this deal. "All of the retro is going to the LUAL side. The LCAL guys are going to be stapled to the bottom of the list and they will take a pay cut to boost the LUAL guys pay rates. Also all L-CAL guys are going to have to forfeit any future vacation time for the next five years so that the L-UAL guys can have more time off. And finally the L-CAL guys are going to have to pay for the L-UAL guys medical and dental benefits. Also the L-CAL guys are going to have carry not roll CARRY the L-UAL guys bags to and from the hotel van anytime they are ridding with them and that the L-UAL guys are getting better uniforms than the L-CAL guys."
You can take all of that to the bank because you read it on the internet..

Wait a minute.........wait just a damn minute! What do you mean we have to ride the hotel van with LUAL pilots?

He or she who works "harder" is irrelevant to the "retro" question. Retro is retro. Simply the difference between the old contract/s and new contract at amendable date/s.
