Couldn't agree more. The only way to get the sCO FA's to vote yes is to put them under duress in some way or another so voting yes is better than voting no.

Voting yes, for ANYTHING, means they get bumped down the food change, for the rest of their 70 year careers. They will never vote yes voluntarily. EVER.

I've even talked to new hire UAL side FAs have been sucked in and reeducated into CAL vs UA bs.

Yes, I have/do and mostly senior UAL F/A's. What do we pay OM for? It's his responsibility to fix the rift created by JS and that includes post merger employee contracts. It cost money to run and airline and OM's people are trying to do it on a JS cheap side.

I don't blame the CAL F/A's because they'll get hosed on senority and in the same respect, I don't blame the UAL F/A's for not wanting to work under a rah rah start-up airline work-rules contract. OM can't find middle ground? It's his job........

Did anybody else notice in Permalink #38 in this thread, by the guy that goes by a boat name trying to disrespect a former members wife. He disrespects the boat, United Airlines, the pilots of United Airlines and all APC members. Earns the tool of the day award.

No, he was just disrespectfull to Staller, and the poor woman that at some point thought Staller was worth marrying.

Disagree, in every aviation community I've been involved family members are off-limits. If that's the way you two think and treat other employees and their families maybe you should stop posting all together - sorry, you can't defend this unless being just as guilty. I don't know if it's misogyny but it's pretty close - do you have a hard time dealing with the ladies at work?

Flamer go away again for a couple weeks. Things are much better here without you.

Maybe you should stop the bulling and attempting to intimidate. Where did you learn this behavior?

For those who only fly with subU F/A's....a little reality check. Married to a 30 year subCO F/A.

She makes more per hour, has more productive work rules, (which includes the option of working as little as 1 trip per month), and hasn't been on reserve since 1986. We both find the sentiment that Continental F/As are some sort of lesser partner laughable.

Here's to an industry leading combined contract; splitting the F/A's by tail number, six years in, is ridiculous.

I think we would all agree with the last paragraph.

BTW - the lesser partner comment - I have not heard from UAL F/A's.

Some of the sentiment is right here in this tread

"I don't blame the UAL F/A's for not wanting to work under a rah rah start-up airline work-rules contract."

Start up airline?
