January 10th

Who were our negotiators for the 2007 contract and for the bankruptcy concession contract?

From newsletter #36.......



As you know from last week's MEC Special Update, we have discussed management's bad-faith bargaining, ever-increasing pilot pay patterns (cemented most recently by JetBlue), and the NMB's unwillingness to take the steps needed to conclude mediation with a company like Frontier Airlines.



WTF......
so JetBlue is no longer our “peer” .......

I didn't the see the word "peer" until you said it.

Lol - so our newsletter would mention another company they DON’T view as a peer?

What would be the point of mentioning them at all?

Can someone clarify the voting process? Can a person change their vote throughout the voting process, up to the January 10 deadline? Or is it such, that if a person casts their vote on December 20, they are unable to change it?

I’m just curious if significant information were to come to light during the voting process, if a person could change their vote up to the January 10 deadline.

This is the exact kind of thinking that will keep us stuck at the bottom of the industry.

Leslie Chow

I’m pretty sure you can change your vote.

Don’t worry, you can still tell everybody on the line you voted “no”.

I can honestly say, I have never met a group that is so self deprecating as this one. You will never get Delta pay. You will never get B6 pay. Be happy we got this deal, nothing left on the table. That is what our own union tells us. I don't know if everybody has Stolkhom Syndrome or what but I refuse to believe I'm anything less. Certainly with the attitude the union has they are correct in that assumption we will never get paid more. We've been played by ALPA national, Indigo, and sadly our own union. WAKE UP PEOPLE! We fly Delta 767 in terms of passengers, our profits are nearly the highest in industry, and you can't even pay us more than industry bottom? All while having zero outside support. Poor mtx, poor ground crews, poor dispatch, you name it. And while we are clamoring over our 75 mil bonus, Bill and Barry are lining their pockets.
