Well Flyby, It looks like another response to your response is in order...
The raise issue as you so eloquently stated hasn't been discussed... you are right... to a point. The issue is simple, if we negotiate OUT of the M-T... The issue of a pay raise then becomes a prime issue. Remember Money for Nothin leaves NOTHING... Please don't be so neive that a financial price hasn't been tossed around the table for the MT.
As for your second wonderful statement about the Rigs issue...
You must first understand what it is you are talking about. The Duty Rigs issue IS tied into the pilot group... Therefore if the pilots negotiate DR changes it will effect us. We can't as a collective, negotiate duty rig changes that aren't in line with the pilots. What would be negotiated are duty rigs that are SEPERATE from the pilot group. There is nothing within the MT clause that can't be negotiated seperately. It would be up to the F/A's to decide if it is worth the change. And where you are really wrong is your statement... IT IS A DEAD ISSUE... Shame on you... We are still negotiating aren't we....
Glad to see you are open to better vacation... More flexibility... Thanks to PBS.... See that wasn't so tough...
Now for the good stuff...
How do you know PBS isn't my friend... Have you been using it... Do you know all of the possibilities it can produce for you? You know nothing of what you say... PBS and CATCREW are two completely different software programs. Catcrew monitors your flying... SAP which is a sub-program in CATCREW allows BH to manipulate their sked... This however.... is governed by the MT clause.... Remember... The amount of blocks and open time is tied in 100% to the present pilot bid for that month... Once again a problem with the MT.... The pilots are deciding how many blocks each aircraft has... Not the F/A's...
As for the stability of CATCREW... You betchya... It is stable.... It doesn't do anything other than monitor.... Wow... You are soooo perceptive....
And now for my favorite line... Let me quote you.... "Until you get a little learning about software programing you need to sit back and shut up"
Wow... Flyby....
Keep my mouth shut...
Don't have a personal view...
Don't flex my mind to open ideas...
I am not a robot like yourself... I have a mind, a mouth, and a brain...
I use it... unlike yourself...
I suggest you try the same...
Just my opinion...
How's this for an added twist to the CLT election. Per a CLT eline, they have moved the postmark deadline until 04/15/10 to get your ballots in. Supposedly this was done from AFA international. I do have to wonder if Ann didn't have something to say about it though. I shot out an email to MF asking where in the bi-laws you could allow a change to an election procedure once it had been posted. Once again he stated it was done through AFA's International Ballot Certification Committee. Seems as though the international office didn't get the memo on all of the base closures and wants to give those based in CLT a chance to vote.
Here's where my problem lies, All of this information has been out since late last year. Even the timing of the base closures. Why now, do they want to give the base an extended time to vote? That would be like going to your polling station 2 hours after the polls close and wanting to vote and have it counted. That aint right. I would be sorry for the ones effected, however, It is not the duty of the member to make sure he or she has a ballot.... its AFA's problem.... And AFA has known about this all along... Why now? Why now?
Just my opinion...
Ann petitioned the Ballot Certification Committee. It all came from Ann. She is trying her hardest to manipulate the votes in her favor. Just as she opted for the more expensive paper ballot.
This irritated me enough to finally delurk and sign up for this place.
First they steal from Mike, get caught and found guilty of it. And they call us ignorant? Someone should tell the west negotiators that the internet knows no bounds. Nice they think so highly of us. I actually cared what they thought I'd be upset. The professionalism of the west negotiators, at least this Jeff guy, is overwhelming. Sounds like someone on the west it pissed too. Anyone got the information on what the guy wrote?
How do Mike and Carol deal with them?
Ok Jeff needs to go and he needs to go NOW, TODAY. In fact he should have been gone YESTERDAY! ! ! ! So shall someone come on these boards now and defend this guy? I DO NOT want that man at the table representing me and negotiating. He was recalled and is there because Lisa has gone against the membership and allowed it. SHE needs to go right along with him. I don't care if it stalled negotiations either. I'm not willing as a member to sit by and allow those two to continue with their BS. I swear If I have to bring this to Pat Friend myself. Absolutely NOT.
