FCFS Handicapping System

You know what if AA decided to pay you $10 an hour?
 
What would you do?

You don't deserve a response!

Hypocrite.
 
Its in the IAM FS CBA, its contractual, just as is your pay, so if AA paid you $10 an hour what would you do?

Coward!
 
You have missed the whole point of the argument...bug off!

 

[700UW]

So as long as you got yours screw everyone else.
 
Great way to build solidarity between AA and US workers.

Dude, your comprehension sucks...plus, you love to chastise and then run and hide when your wrong.
I have "zero" need for anyone who cannot man up after badmouthing someone. Don't waste your time with me because I'm sure as hell not gonna waste anymore with you!

 

[700UW]

So its ok for the new AA to violate PMUS CBAs and you dont care as you got yours, we all see your true colors, no wonder they the union movement is suffering.

Only because of two misconnects.  Had they shown up, I would be left standing there, while two non-revs (one who worked for a wholly-owned less than a year), who could not have possibly listed before me, flew to destination.
 
I can only hope it happen to you on regular basis, especially when its the last flight out.

Maybe the gate agent made a mistake?
My airline boards by FCFS and it works out fine for me, although we don't have a 24 hour check in window, it's only 2 hours. And jumpseat is only one hour.

Sounds like the way the US people are trying to force their non rev system on the AA people.

No one is forcing anything, they are wanting their Collective Bargaining Agreement enforced.
 
What would you do if WN just said we arent going to match your 401k anymore?

Still can't admit you were wrong I see.

 

[700UW]

The language is what it is, I believe the arbiter is wrong, and there are two more grievance going to arbitration where the CWA and the IAM language is tighter than what the AFA had.

 

[jimntx]

Well, while you are determining that the arbiter is wrong, why not look up the definition of binding arbitration., or get an adult to explain it to you.  At this point it doesn't matter whether the arbiter was right, wrong, or a ham sandwich.  The binding decision was in favor of the company.

I'm not arguing that it shouldn't be grieved. I agree that it should, but non rev travel is much more of a grey area than compensation. There's nothing stopping the company from charging for travel, or from revoking it from everyone. I don't think that should fleet/agents win their grievance, DOH be instituted as the way to travel - they might have to keep the two systems seperate. That way, the company gets it's synergies and the workers don't- sounds grand. Pay vs travel benefits are apples and oranges, one is a major dispute and you know that.

Now you sound like a USAPA supporter.

Its not binding arbitration, binding arbitration is for Contract Negotiations.
 
The AFA can take it court if they choose.
 
And like I said CWA and IAM CBA language is tighter and specifically states DOH will be used for boarding.
