Most UAL guys are intelligent and pragmatic. Then there is the 5% factor that thinks all arguments are settled by exclamations pointed at the overwhelming size of The Whale. Funny how DAL doesn't seem to have this problem. They'll be gone as soon as the A350 shows up in numbers. Fortunately the whale and the 350 will pay exactly the same even though the 350 isn't quite as 'premium'. Get over it dude...

Changing the subject, I could be wrong but it appears on the snapshot that a UAL hire is holding the 787 in LA.

Wear your hat or you could be sent home. Maintenance comes into cockpit to argue. Ben, you have been assimilated into a culture that would not recognize the vast amount of control over you.

The best you have for a company is management/labor/customer relations? Everyone can be signing hand in hand but if the company isn't well run, it's going under. Driving away premium business travelers does not make for a profitable company.

Some groups fight for what is right and some get bent over refusing to file grievances. You must be pretty limber.
Everything you stated above is wrong and not sure where you get your info. 8 yrs I have never argued with a mechanic. If we want it fixed it gets fixed. Don't see the reason to delay pax for an auto throttle inop when it can be fixed on the overnight. Some things come up like weather, and we choose to have an Mel fixed. When those situations arise I never heard a thing about it. I don't even know what domestic I'd check is. Drop a copy of my medical in the v- file, never thought of that as a problem. I have never even owned a hat. Please don't get me started on driving away customers, the only thing I have done sense this merger is apologize to customers that they are now flying on UAL metal. What else you got?

Yep, looks like one U hire will get onto the 787. I believe this is permitted as he would be fenced onto the CAL side.

Looks like a few secondary vacancies on the 747 in SFO. Five FO's going to GUM to be Captain.

What he posted is just some of the crap that we now have to endure as a result of Jeff's team running the show. We're being unnecessarily and punitively micromanaged while water floods the hold. All of it designed to get us to capitulate.

Note I used the term, "some". He took it easy.

Eight years and you don't know what a grievance is? I think that's pretty good evidence of the difference in the two cultures.

As far as driving away customers, many of the long time UAL high rollers are now flying DAL. That's a revenue problem, not a cost problem.

PS That's "since" the merger.

"Not sure what you mean about filing grievances. Is that a right of passage or something?"

The company has been giving us reasons all along.
