Default Someone tell me how this makes sense? FDX

Would someone please tell me how it makes sense for some of our ALPA Reps to be bidding the 777 while a pay rate dispute is underway? How does this contribute to unity of purpose? This is an example of leadership?

So if I am ever asked by my Rep sometime in the future for a personal short term sacrifice...I am supposed to say what now?

I can't wait to hear the answer.

Default Outrageous.

This is quite possibly the dumbest thing I have ever seen! Instead of *****ing, or in addition to *****ing on here, everyone needs to email ALL of these guys and get some answers. Hold their feet to the fire.

I'm chilled, but no self-respecting Union Rep should have his/her name on an A/C that we're STILL negotiating pay rates on! Not even a practice bid. It's the principle of the thing.

It IS a practice bid, but it does show a trend, and now would be the time to let our reps know that we don't appreciate them doing something that disrupts whatever unity remains in this union.

I am with Joe and FBH on this...

"Common' sweetheart just let me stick the tip in. It's my first time."

Oops doesn't cut it on this one.

Lead by example.

I stand corrected, they already have over the past year.

Hey! My grandkids read these posts. Seriously, a little crude for your first post.

Gotta start somewhere.

Sorry JJ. Earmuffs for the kids.

Lot of truth to the statement though.

Hey, I thought he was talking about jumping in a swimming pool. Seriously, maybe I'm wrong. I am just as confused as everybody else here.
