It's seriously scary we have people who talk the way you do. Your a grown man for God's sake. You married? Kids? Would you want your kids talking the way you do? It's downright embarrassing man. No one is lying here, both sides are being stubborn. I hope my kids never speak the way you do ANY situation. We are supposed to be adults here. Sure you are probably speaking to a lot of kids who are immature on here...but we both know you're very much an adult Tony, start acting like it and take the high road. You're making us all look bad.

Yes. You are a liar. I'm a fair, though. Show us one example of your group moving off the position of retaining your PBS or nothing, and I'll reconsider. Otherwise its only the XJT group that has been re-educating its group on the merits of leaving behind the old system. We have nice, colorful Powerpoint presentations courtesy of McKnight...I want to see the ones your MEC made.
We're in no hurry, so we will just stick with our popular PBS system and watch you guys wrestle with SmartPref....

Wow! Amazingly CaptainTony, you and I agree on something! This push for SmartPerf has gone on too long. They have been telling us that we will be using it for Phase Two bidding since November last year. Over a year later we still haven't used it as it still isn't ready. If we are pushing for SmartPerf or nothing then we are shooting ourselves in the foot.

I have done just that. Twice. I was impressed by its capabilities, but so far it hasn't actually worked in a real world scenario. We can't get the system to work with our training schedules. That doesn't bode well for the future. It's an unproven system and as of now it still hasn't been tested with a full bid of 800+ lines plus reserve.

Whether you like it or not, the Pipe represents your pilot group. If they are a vocal minority, then it is the job of the majority to police them and take them to task. If you don't, then they speak for you on the Pipe.

This is what I heard. Back when ASA wanted to go to pbs, Management would not allow asamec to research and find the best system for them. Management basically shoved this program down thier throats. FFwd to now. ASA management suddenly wants the asa mec to look at different pbs programs and the asa mec is basially telling management that they made their bed and to lay in it. probably a fabrication, but it sounds very plausible.
