It does not show up on your schedule but it logged by the computer. Checked is different than "viewed." Persnickety lawyers.

I'm not too optimistic for a whole lot of piggybacking for this round. Except, of course, SWA plus reasonable premiums and scope. That's a given.

Who knows, the wheels seem to be coming off the bus, and then I talk to one of the Reps from each side, and they paint a totally different picture than we see. They are untied against the company on getting a good contract. We will see if they cave or keep on fighting.

Can we get ALPA to hire some of those to help us (not us and DCI....just US)?

Why should we need to wonder "if" he has any intestinal fortitude?

Do you mean to say it's possible that our chairman might not have it? The fact that there's any doubt whatever at this stage is pathetic...and don't think the company doesn't know it.

Time for another bargaining agent.

Trying to get this stuff done while sitting short call!

Give Huey a call in ALPA training tomorrow
