it's free, but the "Taylor Made" Alterations aren't! lol

I think the great majority are getting match colors slacks of better quality. So essentially we pay again, new hire or not.

They do reimburse you once finish your 2nd year. You just have to go through the interns in the crew room. So at the end the first one is free as well.

Does anyone know where to get preliminary info about the new health insurance if you didn't get to go to the meeting?

I was wondering the same thing. Maybe someone should call the new com chairman.

ATTENTION! Someone that doesn't mind getting screamed at, please contact the com chair and report back.

Thank you!

Excuse me? Your comm chair is your guy isn't he? Why would you be afraid of getting screamed at by your union guys?

You would have to know him and our union to understand. His reputation is to get worked up and yell before gathering all the info. So its ironic (and probably a little sad) that he is our new comm chair.

Yeah, but it was funny watching Sam get spooled up. I'm always afraid this guy is going to pop a vessel. Someone asked about flight pay loss at a 109 meeting once, i thought the poor guy was going to stroke out right there.

Who knows, maybe print will be more his medium.

Haha, did you see or hear about the email exchange between him and a furloughee? She went directly to the ALPA president before emailing our own union so she was way out of bounds there but the response he sent her was also way past necessary.
