2015 Pilot Discussion.

[EastCheats]

 
 
P.S. I see the best that "sparta" can again ever offer in response is a devastating minus vote. Sigh...In lieu of decades of aerial "dancing"; I suppose it's a true pity "you'se" can't just pull out an XBox or Playstation online here, and truly show me just who's who and what's what instead.  Just FYI: My generation had no foolish notions of giving "trophies" just for "participating", and I really couldn't possibly care less about your many-times-made-clear and basically pathetic, "self esteem" issues "EastCheats".

P.S.
Are you the weird guy in the neighborhood the kids avoid? You seem like a grumpy old, bitter man.

You are on a one way trip to a heart attack.

Chill.....

Chill.....

 
"Chill"? Well "Dude"...My bad then. For a moment I'd thought you were trying to at least impersonate a Pilot. Silly me. My mistake. Have fun with the XBox and Playstation kid.
 
Here's a thought though. "You are on a one way trip to a heart attack."...? Well then; one must now assume that it's only from tender concern that "you'se" won't accept a recreational flying encounter wager...? I suppose I should be grateful for such mercy. Umm...If I promise not to have a heart attack, while of course being unimaginably dazzled by your aerial "skills", would that make the wager acceptable?
 
Apologies, but one of  the nurses in here gets fierce at times, and I must get my rest now.
 
PM if "you'se ever gain some/any spine, or actually functional fantasy of really being a "Pilot"....I'lll hardly hold my breath for that to ever happen punk. We both fully know "you'se" would prove a pitiful joke aloft. If the sorry likes of "you'se" didn't know that; you would be all over that offer in a nanosecond. "Wow!...Look at this fellow "spartans"!....An ancient eastie's set himself up for global video humilation on the internet!"...."All I gotta' do's go AWA him!"....So what's your problem kid?
 
P.S. (Must go and "chill" quickly..the nurses in this hospice show no mercy)...If "you'se" need to run any wager acceptance by the self-styled "Supreme Commander" of "you'se" little Fantaysland "army"...well....tell that pathetic, greasy haired little pimple I'd much prefer him accepting the wager anyway.

 

[EastUS1]

.the nurses in this hospice...

 
Apologies to all. Very poorly attempted humor on my part for any of us that've seen loved ones pass in hospice care.

Did you sober up a little between the last two posts?

 

[Metroyet]

So why again is the Nic not being used?

Mainly because USCABA insisted upon being the most vastly under compensated group of pilots in north America. If delaying the use of the Nic COST the company over $1 billion instead of SAVING the one billion dollars, you can bet the Nic would have been used long ago. But being you all insisted up on living under loa93 the company played stupid.

Don't worry. I promise you you'll be seeing the Nic again shortly. Right about the same time some
That some random, pointless LLC from NC attempts to be "the new Nicolau".

Btw, Where is that combined DOH list and USAPA provided JCBA?

 

[nycbusdriver]

Don't worry. I promise you you'll be seeing the Nic again shortly. 

 
 
....closely followed by howls of belly laughs and guffaws from the arbitration panel.

 

 

[AWE Dog]

Hope you guys didn't need the back pay real bad, No January or December. Plus no Vac payouts for floated days. WTF The 17th stub is in paperless pay.

Checked my Paperless Pay stub for Feb 17.  It reflects the new pay rate.
 
I imagine the company will plead their typical IT difficulties for the other things.  Rest assured, they will eventually be paid, and it will be a wonderful surprise to your great-grandkids.

 

[AWE Dog]

Checked my Paperless Pay stub for Feb 17.  It reflects the new pay rate.

yea, the rate rate is there but it was to include January back pay for the new rate. Who knows when we see December??? So ironic, the bait to vote for this thing was retro pay, then they hold out on it.

If you add up the "Total Earnings" line for "This Period" (first line highlighted in yellow, and being paid on February 17) with the "Adv 30th Pay" (which you got at the end of December), you will have the total month's pay for January.
 
If you want to check their math, just divide that sum by your hourly pay rate, and it should reflect the number of hours you flew/claimed in January.

 

[PullUp]

Although I haven't heard anything from the company or APA, my bet is that a separate check will be issued for back pay. I believe the IRS rules make the company withhold at the higher 'bonus' rate for payouts like these.
I don't know how the vacation thing works....I put in for 5:00 of float time and haven't seen anything yet.
Cheers.

You have no chance of sitting in a 787 or an A330 the rest of your career.  The East pilots have nothing against a 10 year 787 fence minimum for American Pilots. 
 
American Pilots only want to keep what the brought to a merger, East pilots only want to keep what they brought to a merger.
 
west pilots do not want what they brought to the merger, they want everybody else's piece of the pie.
 
west will only get a humble piece of the pie.

I think they are all aware of that, they would be happy just to bid out of the desert.

Good song for the westies

 

[Claxon]

west dues scofflaws allowed THE FOUNDER to be elected USAPA president to preside over their affairs. Very fitting, the one who created the magnificent organization shall see it through to the end. He organized the destruction of the Nicolau and will see it to the end.
Cheers and a toast gentlemen, to Stephen Bradford!
