It's a valid point. My point is that the company's perception was that LCAL pilots not having profit sharing could be problematic (whether it would have been or not) and this provided a rare point of leverage in the process. This leverage was mishandled in my opinion. I would have rather had the better pay and rules last summer.

I completely agree. It was a pivotal point, and management knew it. They played it well with JPos, and we all collectively missed a chance at gaining much needed JCBA leverage. Sadly JPos has set us back years in our collective efforts to unify this pilot group. I hope we can all move past this chapter quickly, and JPos returns to the line, where he can reap what he has sown. :eek: SP |

Most Americans have 'checked out,' Gallup says Seven out of 10 workers have “checked out” at work or are “actively disengaged,” according to a recent Gallup survey. In its ongoing survey of the American workplace, Gallup found that only 30 percent of workers are “were engaged, or involved in, enthusiastic about, and committed to their workplace.” Although that equals the high in engagement since Gallup began studying the issue in 2000, it is overshadowed by the number of workers who aren’t committed to performing at a high level — which Gallup says costs companies money. The poll, released last week, examined worker engagement beginning in 2010 and ending in 2012. The previous poll period covered 2008 through 2010. The survey classifies three types of employees among the 100 million people in America who hold full-time jobs. The first is actively engaged, which represents about 30 million workers. The second type of worker is “not engaged,” which accounts for 50 million. These employees are going through the motions at work. The third type, labeled “actively disengaged,” hates going to work. These workers — about 20 million — undermine their companies with their attitude. |
"Your morale, is not my problem!"

Would you as a CAL pilot have shown up to work when all other employees were handed profit sharing??? I wouldn't.

There are a lot of pilots who agree with you. And that was precisely the point. It should have played out as you describe. It may have greatly accelerated the JCBA process. Profit sharing broke the fever, so to speak, for LCAL pilots and then they claimed an agreement months before it was done. Got them through the summer. And here we are still languishing through another summer under C'02 pending implementation of "joint CMS" and "Joint Implemenation Team."

No job action, but a loss of enthusiasm for sure. And it wouldn't be to recoup what we didn't negotiate, it would be to say negotiate in good faith. I'd rather have more $ per month than $3000 once.

The scorched earth left in it's wake depicts a scene of money well spent. |

To go from agreeing with Moombabeach, to loss of enthusiasm, to checking out, to not engaged is one heck of a back peddle. Believe what you want. I guarantee you that if Feb 14th rolls around and flights had cancelled, someone would be in front of the judge before you could say railway labor act. That, is the modus operandi of employee relations.
