MEC townhall was bad.

It is not about asking for the moon it is about being realistic.

And rushing a subpar contract leads to MUCH worse.....

Years, if not decades of bad work rules that only become harder to get back.

This is the most leverage pilots have had in decades...and it would be preposterous to let it slip away now.

Seek life elsewhere….

There is no better time to expect to claw back a significant amount of of QWL items along with industry leading pay rates. Those QWL items were lost/given up by a majority of the UAL pilots long ago. The JCBA focused on helping the merger we couldn’t control to achieve an SLI and complete the operational integration to then “get it back in the next contract.” This is it.

If you truly work for UAL, you work for a CEO with a 30% pay advantage over his DL adversary and also got a nice NPS bonus on your hard work……. What did you get.

Im gone in five years. I’ve fought against the missteps of the UAL MEC during the post 9/11, BK, recession of 08 etc. I’m only one pilot though. Fear is a powerful motivator as proven by the history of my career.

Put on a lanyard and get in step. This next contract has to make significant ground to close the gap in what has been lost as DALALPAs did. If you want a TUMI 2.0, SKirby will be more than happy to sign.

Compensation and QWL is way mor than a pay table in Section 3.

I, too am ready for management to stop expecting the moon from us & get realistic with their offer. Their delays are costing each pilot money. Glad we see eye to eye.

Please stay as far away as possible from any role even remotely associated w the NC.

I hope people like this are in the extreme minority. What part of being in the best negotiating environment in decades do you not understand??
