CAL doesn't pay for uniforms. Maybe our new contract will fix that. CAL uniforms are better than UAL's because we can buy black pants at JC Penny and save $50 a pair On it. Black is easy.

13-A. Partial Termination. Unless the Parties agree otherwise, the Airline Parties may jointly terminate the provisions of Sections 4-D (Domiciles), 7-A (Furlough
with regard to United Pilots only), 7-C (Flying Ratios), 7-D (Domicile and Base
Protection), and 9 (ALPA Travel), individually or collectively, at any time on or
after December 31, 2011, if the parties have not reached a tentative agreement on a
JCBA by that date.



13-B. Termination by Agreement. The Parties may terminate this Transition
and Process Agreement whenever they shall agree to do so.


13-C. Termination by Notice. An Airline Party or ALPA may terminate this
Transition and Process Agreement on fifteen (15) days notice delivered to the
other Parties at any time following termination of the Merger Agreement under
Section 8.1 of that Agreement.

13-D. Effect of Termination. Termination of this Transition and Process
Agreement will not affect a Party’s obligations under Sections 3, 7-B-(iv), 8, 11,
12, and applicable definitions in Section 1, nor will it affect any outstanding
payment obligations under Section 15. A Pilot who has been employed pursuant
to Section 7-B will continue, at his option, to be employed by the employing
Airline in accordance with that Airline’s collective bargaining agreement;
however, two (2) months after termination of this Transition and Process
Agreement his pay rate going forward will be adjusted to reflect only his accrued
service credit at the employing Airline
True, but 13A is still possible.........it doesn't require ALPA approval. And what damage can UCH do if they start downsizing UAL in favor of CAL ops?

I'll let you imagine the potentials.

Frats,
Lee

Wow, this thread has gone all over the place. From, a rumour to yay to it sucks so bad who would want to, to how much pay, etc. I am a 12/99 UAL DOH with 5+ years off for good behavior. I would love to get back to work, and let my wife stay home with the kids like she's wanted to since 12/99. I just need to know exactly what pay I am coming back to, for planning purposes. Should I figure 7th year UAL 320 pay or what? We could use a decent health, dental plan etc. with 3 kids. I know the current work rules at CAL suck, but, it can't be that way for much longer......right? We have to have a contract within the next year. I imagine, the way my career has gone thus far, that I will be stapled well below the CAL guys in the SLI, but, starting in 2012 all the clingons will be leaving, no? So, the hell should only last so long. I am so confused!!! Shed some light on me oh great forum gods.

Whatever you are currently doing for employment is better than coming to CAL. If you are unemployed, this is also better than coming to CAL. I said the exact same things that you are saying about 4 years ago: "surely they will get a contract soon" "i know it sucks but it can't be that bad." You can read about how **** poor our work rules are all day long, but until you experience all the little nuances that they exploit on a daily basis here, you will not have a complete understanding of what you are getting into. I wish I could convince you to change your mind as it seems you are decided and looking to take a job over here. Perhaps your wife should talk to mine before you commit to this. Please think twice, and think hard: this isn't as bad as you are thinking, it is actually much worse. As for health coverage, I am unsure if you would get it from the start. New hires go 6 months before it coverage begins. Perhaps a good plan would be to come over,get the 737 type, or get current if you already have it, quit, then go to SWA.

I don't qualify as a great forum god, there are many others who believe they are.

However, you need to do what's best for you and your family and spend less time with this blog board stuff. It isn't vetted.

No Lee. We were talking about 7-B (job opportunities). 7-B is NOT included in 13A and so the company CANNOT cancel 7-B without ALPA concurrence (TA termination). IOW, the UAL furloughees that take a CAL job will still be paid their UAL furlough rate. I am well aware of the 13A potential, but that was not the point.

Poor wording on my part. Scheds cannot "decide" to waive your rest. They cannot assign you another trip with less than 14 hrs block to block unless you are the ONLY reserve available. In the last 5 years and 4 months of straight reserve I have never had this happen. 14 hours in domicile between trips is WAAAAY better than 10 or 11 at CAL, wouldn't you agree?? As for the pilot not being able to waive the 14 block to block...I agree. Sometimes this is a pain in the arse for aggresive pick up. If you block in from an assignment, and you want to pick up a trip that departs 13:59 later, no can do...even if you call scheds. They cannot waive it either if there are reserves available.
