The tyrants have finally been taken to the townsquare and hung! The nightmare appears to be finally over- but one detail remains- I thought the whole point of this was to get rid of that Neg. Cmte that screwed us. Now I hear that that's not gonna happen?

I hope its not because of the whole (150%) Why some of our guys are so hell bent on having the ability to work more/harder is beyond me. Focus on pay rates @ 72hrs, not having the ability to ***** your self out to make a comparable W2 to your peers..............

Well that's too bad. Fort Lauderdale still has an outstanding resolution on the table to remove the entire committee of negotiators.
Contrary to what certain members of the Spirit union cabal want us to believe - this group of negotiators IS replaceable.
If you like your 18 hr four days, keep these negotiators.
If you like to fly a red eye turn on day three of a 6:00AM start four day, keep this team.
If you like flying for straight time, blame their masters.
If you want to move past the era of "we know what's best for you" finish the job and replace this team, and everyone associated with them.
The same people have been running the union for 16 years, it's time for a complete change.

Well either way, if the Negotiating Comm remains intact and our new MEC Chairmen supports them, we all should too........

I thought they (JA, RP, TC and crew) were gonna clean the house, Not just the breezeway. That's why a lot of us backed their play- I'm starting to get that squishy feeling- AGAIN. We are going to need more than razzle dazzle videos and updates on VX at the NMB (most of us don't care about that crap)- We wanted to see results with a clean sweep.

I emailed my reps in support of this change and continued to encourage them to get some new people on the negotiating committee, I don't want another repeat of the 2010 concessionary contract. Hopefully we will finally get a contract that is at least parity with other airlines.

"Sign this or we'll be in NO MANS land"
"This co will never IPO, we don't want their *^#{[{}%*## stock even if they do"
How's that for a start?
And YES IT IS ALSO ABOUT 150%. Giving away 150% shows that the MM led negotiators believe that gains will never happen, they accept that "you gotta give to get". That idea is total BS! In this economy we dont need any of their weakness
You gotta get out of ACY and stop listening to their obselete Allegheny tactics
