Personal attack and not addressing the message are good indication of the black side (your term) mis-stating and not understanding the issues. There are constant battles with the IAH and EWR LEC's trying to protect the black side to the detriment of a UNIFIED PILOT GROUP. You suggest we move forward talk to the leadership of these LEC's and encourage them to get onboard - recall or voting them out could do the same thing.

Almost scab - Is that what you call your side now? Would you mind telling us how you did that?

 

When you point a finger, there are 3 more pointing back at you. Perhaps you are the problem.

 

No finger pointing. Just the truth................... Many on these forums take cockpit and crew room conversation as truth. How about you?

 

Thread drift...

OMG! Who is the idiot that buys TP for the planes? That single ply stuff that you breath on and it falls apart? Disgusting. Maybe Jeff should use this stuff up in his personal offices....

Now, let's stop this pointless rehash of the SLI and get back to the current crisis involving the dastardly tactics of Jeff and the FA's. Hmmm, I just had a flash back of Clyde Crashcop & Mutley from Wacky Races (bonus points for those who remember Wacky Races Sat. morning cartoons)....Dastardly indeed...

 

Who's talking about SLI? It's about the F/A's getting screwed by Jeff and many on CAL side turning it into a us vs them thing. Jeff holding back on bids and bumps further creating a divide among pilots is no different. Just nobody being put on the street.
As a reference, IAH, EWR and to a certain extent CLE LEC's have continued to act in a us vs them way and I'm sure it's trickled down to the rank and file. You'd think in the past 3 years we would have come together as a unified pilot group. Is it just those blow-heart United guys causing problem or is it the CAL side waiting for Jeff and company to make decisions for them?

 

Well, I'm certain I'm one causing problems. My chief pilot and assistant both said so..

Enforce your contract!

 

You're showing your juniority: Klyde Krashkup was from the Alvin and the Chipmunks, circa late 50s/early 60s. Wacky racers was an offshoot from Bullwinkle (J Ward Productions) circa late 60s/early 70s. (Tom Slick; Penelope Pitstop, etc).


Point made and exemplified. I don't care if you are L-UAL or L-CAL, this FA thing should ^&**%$ you off!! It was alleged this was on-going with the pilots...this is pretty cut-and-dried. They are.

Jeff and Co. will do anything....ANYTHING...to divide union labor.

This is Pearl Harbor. ALPA...UAL....CAL...IAM...AFA: in the words of Ben Franklin:

"If we do not hang together, we shall surely hang separately."

Write your reps. This is crap. The Pass travel survey is crap. It is time to say NO and tell them they can not further degrade this airline. It is time to rebuild it. The only way to do this is coordination between all union groups.

Tell your reps. It may not do any good. But at least you will know you tried.

 

From Wikipedia:

"Wacky Races was an American animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera.[1] The series, inspired by the 1965 slapstick comedy film The Great Race

The villains of the series, in a purple, rocket-powered car with an abundance of concealed weapons and the ability to fly. Dastardly (voiced by Paul Winchell, in a manner that Winchell would use several years later to portray the Smurfs' nemesis Gargamel) is an archetypal mustache-twirling villain; Muttley (voiced by Don Messick) is his trademark wheezily snickering, anthropomorphic dog henchman."

I stand corrected--too lazy to look it up earlier. It was Dastardly I was thinking of. (Right on in the characterization though.) I lived for that show Sat mornings. However, if memory serves, Muttley made it into one or two other cartoons as well. This is waaaayyy more important than divide and conquer union busting tactics. I think Jeff is too young to have ever seen it, all the more ironic.
