We've seen this movie and know how it ends... I wouldn't be surprised if that's what St George has in mind. Won't be rainbows and unicorns for the ERJ side unfortunately.

Comments coming from people on the more expensive per block hour side of the operation, flying the more maintenance expensive fleet, with the longest longevity pilots,... Don't worry about us over here! We need each other to merge or else we really aren't competitive but one side clearly has the advantage here. Keep spewing garbage on here but we are one company and we will eventually be the same team. It is time to tell both MEC's that you are tired of the nonsense.

I am very concerned that some people don't realize that negotiations require give and take on both sides. This will not come down to a situation where the company gives and we take. Reality dictates that we MAY have to give up in one area to get something in another. The goal is to have a better OVERALL contract for everyone, not sticking on one point when we have may have made other gains. This is supposed to be a stepping stone, not a destination. Let's make it a good stepping stone and move on when the time comes.

Please call your union reps. The LASA MEC is not negotiating. They are throwing around ultimatums that are simply not in the best interests of anybody except for the top 5%. They are running a political campaign for their own personal gain and not the greater good of the combined group. We are getting laughed at by management and this really is ridiculous when you hear the demands.

Your guys are keeping you in the dark all for what? To keep guys like your top few in a base from having to work a little more when the rest of us are busted our tails. Yeah, that'll work.
