Multiple personalities? Which one is the pilot?

Well Georgie, enjoy the new found wealth if the TA passes. The aftertaste may not be as sweet. After you get the pool built, what do you do?

It really is a shame that the company/Jay Pierce used a segment of the LUAL pilots to their benefit. It's even more of a travesty that the new United MEC is using the LOA25 guys to get a questionable TA passed. JH should have demanded LOA25 be settled and the pilots made whole before any discussion on the TA.

Most people have voted and there is nothing written on this or other forums that will change a vote, but by the vote, the company will know how to deal with the pilots going forward.

Oil is going south of $30 a barrel and we are turning our backs on Section 6.

No concessions is BS. How much does a vacation drop cost? How much does vacation accumulate at? How much are you paying for medical? How much does the reserve system suck? How much sick leave do you accumulate per month?
C2012 is the product of a merger of two dissimilar contracts. We did not get to keep the best of both as the company got to chop things too. These things are supposed to be addressed in the next section 6. 13 percent is not enough for me to support living with the warts in this contract for another 4-6 years. Voting NO.

You do realize we get more annual vacation than DAL right? Just saying. Every no voter chest thumps pointing to DAL and their SL and training. Yes it's higher but there is more than just that. Please vote no. That's your right you've earned as a UAL pilot off probation. But accept the fact that others disagree and feel it's what's best for the pilot group. I'll accept the vote either way. I just hope others will too.

It'll all be over next week and we can move on to *****ing about other stuff.

Ok we all give, I could have purchased a Ferrari but bought a Toyota instead. Both are good cars but you know I had to make concessions.

This thread is great entertainment.

I have not had the pleasure of meeting this Gent, but will say that this is one very impressive post. ( Not because it's also the longest one I've ever seen)
Well written. IMHO the pay rates and making furloughees whole by far outweighs the lack of other issues not addressed. But then I don't pretend to be the sharpest tool in the shed. I voted in favor.

You should have purchased the Ferrari. Much better driving experience. YOLO!
