Which specific provisions? Not much left in red of the color coded contract.

Then agian I do not think we should be in a rush to add stuff like a day starting at 0100 and involuntary junior manning, but thats just my two cents.

I do read the updates. Someone mentioned 36 grievances filed. In the updates we may hear of one or two wins in the grievance process. It would be nice to see a score card of the grievances filed and the reason along with the decisions and awards. As far as I have been able to find over the years I have not seen such a document. If it is out there then please point me in the right direction.

Where are the wholesale non-compliance issues? I am really interested in what sections of the contract, as has been stated in this thread, are outstanding and non-compliant. If it is reserve issues I would like to know those also. Fortunately I am not on reserve but we are all most likely all a bid or downturn away from reserve.

System Board Awards are here. That's a start.

Asst CP in DC told me that he spends two-thirds of his time fixing payroll shorts.

I don't see how this is a problem with contract LANGUAGE.

We have some leverage at this moment. Use it for a couple shillings and the myriad of other contract issues will never be resolved in a timely fashion during section 6.

Not a language problem, it's a compliance problem. When they don't pay you according to the contract and you have to file a pay claim, I know you'll agree that's an issue.

There is also a serious issue with Reserve abuse. Although everything is legal the intent is being violated big time. I don't think it's a coincidence that this abuse has popped up only within the last 6 months and now it's one of the 5 items being discussed in the extension. They are trying to beat 1/3 of the group into a yes vote.

How awesome! No raise since 2012 and now.....

"Southwest expects discussions under the National Mediation Board to resume in spring 2016. Its pilots will continue working under their current agreement until a new deal is reached."

I do agree with the SWA pilot's decision. Code share language was scary. However, I will judge any deal our NC might reach on it's own merits. I don't care if DAL and SWA voted no.
