Default FedEx ALPA Exex VP Picks up DP

"Holy cow Batman"

Looks like JF picked up #835 2Jan.

I guess it is OK to fly DPs.

Oh OK, I guess he did not get the e-mail from the SIG, he won't do it again. He told he friends he was sorry so it is OK

It is the same old song. You would think they would pay a little more attention to it. Maybe not flying the line and getting their trips bought for makes them forget...ANC treasurer did the same thing less than a year ago. Unbelievable. I am done preaching to people about disputed pairings. Have at it fly them at draft pay! I am so disenchanted. I need to go to bed since I am on a trip that used to be a dp and was flown 3 times and now is one of our pairings. Need some sleep before I go fatigued. Thanks for being so concerned and all the help.

Whatever, enjoy the time off. Still goes down as a hit wise a$$ (or is it Dutch See the next post link) with scheduling on someone volunteering for it. I guess we probably will not hear from you again unless you can weasel your way out of this.

Nice second post. I could respond with some name calling too.. but I won't.

Here is a link to your first post. You will have to scroll down to #75 to read it.

I guess you were too busy with ALPA National issues to worry about us back at the ranch. Maybe you should take a break from the ALPA National business and call your Dutch Uncle.

By the way, you do not have my support.

Have fun in Paris with Ben your FO. I guess we can't really blame him. I'm just bitter because I did not pick up the trip with the sweet front end DH. Next time I will.

By the way you are still on the trip as of 0609Z, must not be enough reserve coverage for you to drop it, so I guess you will just have to fly it. Darn the luck, you tried though, right? I guess that's all the really matters.

Your lack of attention to this very important detail and your response to being called on it are precisely why so many of us have lost confidence in you and the others that are supposed to be driving the ALPA ship.

Your actions give us clues as to how so many items were overlooked in negotiating the LOA.

As an EVP....you should know better. You should have made it a point to ensure that you set the example. At least you apologized, DW has never apologized over anything.

Actually it was my second post not my first.
Funny thing, if you actually go and read what my first post was about.
I am pretty busy with National issues.
I do not care about your support or lack there of.
I will not have fun in Paris because I will get rid of the trip.
I said I screwed up, what more would you have me do?

Now that sounds like ole DW and his cronies...Age 60, LOA, schedule issues, LCA/flex issues, domistic solve.....Is anyone over there not too busy to care? We are off to a good start with some new folks on the MEC, perhaps we shouldn't stop there.

Default We all make mistakes

Guys, I say cut him some slack. I have the upmost respect for JF. He and a very small number of others are the reason that we have representation here, in the first place! He screwed up, he's fixing it,...lets move on.
I'm ready for the incoming.
Happy New Year to one and all and I hope that you'll be where you want to be. I won't, but planning on making the best of it

Nothing more to say Dutch. ALPA National, blah, blah, blah. Forget about us little people at FedEx?  LOA, AGE 60?You are right though he said he was sorry...Makes me feel better about it.
