Kudos

Agreed, well done and thanks for posting Lerxst. Don't worry about anyone IMing you without a sense of humor. Their loss.

Yes it was, well done. But I can't seem to edit it and panties do seem to be all twisty so I'd like to ask the Mods to please pull this thread.

Boring.

Pretty dang funny...

Unfortunately it's not up to ALPA, it's up to a panel of three arbitrators.

Maybe: "once again pilots fail to recognize it's not up to ALPA to decide which side was right"

You bring up an excellent point that will never change in the history of pilots and the world...it is always ALPA's fault (at least, something or someone other than themselves).

Supposedly the Merger Committee chairs only have seen the list as of 11am Eastern time. I assume we will see it after the MECs start their meetings.

Twas the night before SLI and all through the house,
not a pilot was stirring, not even their spouse.

All their futures were strung up by both proposal lists,
How could the other side think that? I’m really, really pi**ed!

All at once by their computers, the message boards erupt and they clamored.
quick, one poster says, there’s been a leak, we’ve been screwed and we’ve been hammered!

NO! NO! someone says, it’s just more bad info from Swindells and Ringel.
then calm again returns with a text and a jingle.

Should have known, someone says, from the crew room hall.
Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!

Then all the sudden, CCS messages appear,
don’t panic, don’t fret, none of us should fear!

So off to their redeyes, many pilots took flight,
while all the senior papas bed down for the night.

The next morning they arise to discover their fate,
only to see a memo stating ISL will be late!

Lawsuits, lawsuits, lawsuits abound!
NO NO! They all cry, it’s enough to put me underground.

And so the years go on and on, with endless legal fights,
as ALPA once again FAILS, to do what is right!

The pilots all hung by their iPads, with beer
In hopes that no Nicolau soon would be here
