Anyways, this sucks. My wife was gone last night and most today but she ended up coming home earlier than planned and caught me in the act. And I mean caught me. There was nothing to say. I just admitted it. Explaining it felt good all last night and today got me nowhere. I'm sad, because I really liked it.

But now I have to say goodbye to the thermostat set at 72 degrees. Man it was great.

Maybe by using the term subcontractor he is referring to DCI's only. The reduction of 148 DCI aircraft would then be a reduction in DCI pilots by only 1,184 to 1,480 instead of 2,000 and an increase of 1,100 mainline pilots.
I was referring to all part 121 subcontractors across all major brands. I'm avoiding the "R" term because in my opinion North America is more of a continent.

No mandatory, and no trigger.

Words mean things.

This language is ridiculous. My favorite part is "if they are found" as if mgmt doesn't know what's happening.

Seeing how they operate the ratios with our JVs there is now doubt they will push the limits as far as they can as long as they can. This will not be in our favor. How some folks think mgmt is going to be honorable when they don't have foceable language to do so is shocking. When mgmt screwed the pilots during bankruptcy and then gave themselves a bonus, that was the fool me once. Fool yourself again and there is nobody to blame but yourself.

My NO vote was enjoyable to submit. My only worry was that I did it too soon. There is no question ALPA is watching the numbers daily and if things are not going their way expect to see more folks in ops. I suspect if ops gets more crowded with ALPA folks the vote is not going as planned.
