SPOT ON! Contract openers are right around the corner. CD and our comm committee are working hard to streamline and make info more pertinent and more accessible. DJ is ramping up Pilot-2-Pilot with the goal of 1000 P2P reps.

If anyone is interested in P2P PM me or contact DJ at P2P on the ALPA site!

When do we want our next CBA? The time is NOW to start acting like a Union. If people are sending threatening or other inappropriate communication, why don't we start using pro stan for things like this? The receiver of the text, while we do not know the details, obviously contacted someone at the crystal palace first. So in a way, maxKts is right on target, lets keep this stuff in house. ALPA.

If something reported goes out of bounds it will be directed appropriately by the fine folks in pro stan and in the end can save all of us lots of time and money.
Contract or no contract, ProStan should be the first stop - not running to management!

Anyone acting like a Maverick should beware....secondly this message translates into "any keystroke you do in VIPS or any Company computer can and will be 1) archived 2) used against you when you get into the sights of a discipline issue, even if not part of the actual issue at hand"

At least that is the way I read it, I would suggest everyone think twice before you make business decisions while on a Company site, I know I do.
Good advice. It applies for any electronic footprint left behind. If it can be recorded, saved, printed, whatever, then don't do it if it's going to get you into trouble. If you're the receiver of something that may get someone into trouble, then utilize PRO STANDARDS (as someone already wrote above.) Don't make it easy for the company to take us hostage, especially with section 6 openers right around the corner. Unity is the key to winning this fall; distractions caused by stupidity (beer talk) won't help.

You would think that in the Light of Tiger, people would quit putting things in writing, or on recorded media, hell I am scared to be on here. (There needs to be a breathalizer to log on and post). The bottom line is if you need to talk to a dp flyer, walk up to him/her at the counter, and tell them what you need to face to face, without a witness.

Default Friends don't let friends fly DPs

We only have a very few (relatively speaking) of our trips that are Disputed Pairings. Just because you don't hear from me, don't assume that the entire FDX crew force doesn't know EXACTLY who is flying those DPs. And we don't appreciate your selfish actions, which bring current and future pain and suffering to the rest of us.

I think the message is what's important. If you simply inform the DP flyer why we dispute certain pairings, then I can't see how that can be construed to be intimidating, harassing or whatever else the company might want to suggest. If the DP flyer is someone new, then they will appreciate the education.

This is a travesty and just the mere idea that you can be fired over looking up information in VIPS is an outrage .............................. The paranoia continues
