Personally I like having you around. You're becoming like a comfortable old stinky slipper.

I'm the absolute least of his concerns now.

I'm a "tug slug" now Josh. No Samsonites for the Weez at this juncture in time.

Thought you said KLoader/container work si for old fat and you wanted the workout of bulk loading the narrowbodies.

And the S80 requires a different tug

What concerns me on this at least for the moment is that on wages Delta did not announce any increases for next year? They "may" have put the breaks on direct compensation increases and are now transferring more to variable at risk (Profit) compensation.

Thinking of the business it's actually a smarter way to compensate but for the Employee direct wages is a much smarter option.

Well let's see now how AA Executives react to this news?

at worst, isn't this now Delta +7%. So, a 4% wage imputing from a negotiation perspective? Parker himself costed out this profit sharing as Delta +7% but then tweaked it to Delta +3% after the profit sharing was cut in half. This is good news for our negotiations and shows that the longer we wait the bigger the raise and leverage.

Weez you the push out guy, or towing guy?

Push out. The towing is still currently in dispute.

Thought I needed to give my body a little break. It's a short bid and then I'm going back to the grind stone.

At the very least it is compensation that needs to be considered in Negotiations now.

Bob and Doug respectfully disagree with each other. That's why Bob has decided to start his own Airline and prove all the naysayers wrong.

Push out. The towing is still currently in dispute.

That's a fixed (or bid) position? Do you only push during your shift?

Do you expect a raise somewhere down the road or is the increase P/S going to be it?
