People are reading too much into the red clip. How about the "Ex-CON" stuff? How about the guys who are wearing the CONTINENTAL AIRLINES ties still? Works both ways. I wear my red clip, I have the old yellow Flight manual bag tag(because I wasn't given the new blue one), and an old United (tulip) bag tag because I wasn't given a new one... And if I wasn't such a fashionista, I'd wear my blue overcoat, because s-CAL didn't pay for a black one (I am going to write off the one I bought on my taxes)... Now for the pilots wearing old United wings with the CAL uniform.... that's a little over the top (IMO). I would wear my old United wing tie clip if it wasn't such a pain to remove/ put back on everytime I did my tie... Good post. Just please keep in mind that the only pilots that have had their uniform paid for by the company are the sUA guys, every CAL pilot has had to pay for every piece (including the overcoat) since I've been here. Ridiculous to be sure, but it is what it is. |

As far as the ID Tags go, at the end of the day, to each their own. Having recently spent time in IAH going through a "long course", there were plenty of "Red-Tags" abound. However, the one I couldn't help but noticing (felt bad for) was the guy who used a "red sharpie" to color his ID Clip. I honestly wondered when "Brother Bluto" would come rolling around the corner, next to the second floor coffee machine, and start issuing some kinda Delta-Chi handshake & Red ID Clip to this poor guy. |

I think we should take it a step forward have the scabs wear a different color.

As I mentioned... the red clip and the negative perceived attitudes at the school house are connected... but I don't think it is that big of a deal...
Wow... so how do YOU define yourself? By them? ? Just saying each side has their way of "identifying" who they "used to" work for. So why actively choose the red clip if there are plenty of other passive indicators ? 'Cause it was free and I wasn't given anything else to clip my ID with while I was down there. Some pilots were only given one pair of CAL wings with that creatively lacking square globe logo.... and the embroidered wings are too "MIL/Flying Club" stupid to even consider... would you feel better if they just wore no wings on the shirt? IMO.... |

Welcome to the new USAIR. This greviance is just the tip of the iceberg that the UAL MEC has planned. The contract is finished, the sUAL pilots got the lions share of retro pay, and are now focused on grieving any and all parts of the contract that they did not get to manipulate through the normal negoiating processes. sUAL has now proven that they have no intention of proceeding with an amicable integration or representing any pilots other than sUAL pilots. This attempt to circumnavigate the agreed upon bid process is nothing more than the sUAL MEC holding the sCAL pilots at gunpoint to get what they desired but refused to do so in order to start their self-righteous pity-party as a means to an end. :mad:
