Transformation Plan Formal Announcement

StatioRat:

StatioRat said: "If I was so unhappy with where I worked I would hit the road."

USA320Pilot comments: Agreed. I have found that the people who complain the most are the people who have no other option. Why? If they were so miserable they would leave.

Respectfully,

USA320Pilot

Then why did you not take your own advice when you hated dave and US when they terminated your pension and told everyone on here that you had a foreign flying job all lined up!

Dont have the gonads?

700UW:

I find your emotion and lack of decorum interesting. You’ll see, but the IAM is largely irrelevant. If they want to cost effectively provide overhaul they can. If not, I understand they will be eliminated, thus they will be irrelevant.

The company HR people are indicating they have the A320 grievance won and it’s a slam dunk. You read the tea leaves. Management has indicated it takes US Airways mechanics 18 days to do a narrowbody overhaul and a contractor 13 days. That’s more costly and 5 days the aircraft cannot produce revenue, which is a burden the LCC’s do not possess.

Do I like this? No, but it’s a fact according to the company.

You and your colleagues will do what they want, but according to Bronner it will not matter one way or another.

As far as leaving the company, my pay, expense money, stock options, and DC Plan payments currently pay me over $200,000 per year, which is sufficent. Furthermore, that excludes benefits, therefore, you do the math. It has nothing to do with Gonads. I'll stay until other opportunites are more rewarding, which may or may not be around the corner.

But, with all your complaining, why don't you leave US Airways employment? No Gonads?

Regards,

USA320Pilot

Wonder what he'll say when they want to give his Shuttle flying to Mesa or one of the other contract lift providers...

I am calling you out, prove to the boards who you talk to and who in the company believes it is a slam dunk?

Funny they thought that about the court case too, two rounds won by the IAM.

(Edited), Lets wager on the airbus outcome?

You won't cause you have been proven to be nothing but a sham, your posts are blantant falsehoods.

Prove your facts about 18 days, since one was never done in-house and MAE is averaging over 20 days as we speak and that is not counting three of the planes that had to be taken out of service due to shoddy work by MAE.

You are nothing who thinks you are someone important, remember you are not the ceo or any management you are a employee who knows Zero about what is really going on. You have been proven wrong so many times I could retire if I had a dollar for each one!

700UW:

I do not have to prove anything nor will I destory the confidence in people who talk to me. Go and talk to senior management, do some homework, take some initiative, and find out for your self that what I posted is true.

We see management in LGA regulary. For example, Ben Baldanza, Neal Cohen, and Bruce Lakefield all flew through the station on Monday and we regulary talk. Would you like the record locators or can you find it for your self?

As I said before, the IAM may become irrelevant. It's up to the IAM and its members.

Respectfully,

USA320Pilot

PITMTC responds:
The company was just as confident went the first aicraft was sent down to BFM. However, if you remember the work was stopped as the issue of "minor vs major dispute" was unclear.
Confidence is o.k., but it is still under arbitration as of now. We have just as big a slam dunk confidence as the company.

 

[700UW]

You know you are not telling the truth.

The IAM has 54 years of evidence, even letters of waivers requested by the company. And Mr Bloch awarded the IAM 401K matching grievance which the company lost and the Attendance Control Policy which the company lost, so keep trying, if you repeat it enough you will convince yourself that you are the all might knowing diety! You are so full of it, it is so funny.

We are still waiting for your explanation of the "painful" clause, been three months now.

Do we show you how many times you have been shown wrong, it would take up most of the bandwith on this board, everyone sees you for what you really are.

I bet you would throw your own mother under the bus as long as it put money in your wallet

OK folks, enough of the images. We've deleted one today.

When Mesa publishes 737 pay rates that are far less than the AAA ALPA rates on the same equipment, will you be happy either matching that rate or having all narrowbody flying sent to Mesa?

Until you answer that with an affirmative, it is not really kosher to make the comparison you have made with regard to the IAM-M.

 

[savyinvestor]

I'm not saying "who" , but what a pathetic human being. :down: Savy

 

[BoeingBoy]

For the record, this is what the ALPA route committee said about the time for overhaul at STE:

"The maintenance track on those A/C is reportedly 17-21 days and all should be complete by the time you take action on this agenda item"

If anyone doubts that "those A/C" are the planes going to STE, I'll post the entire paragraph this was taken from.

And equipment?

They are equipped with some of the best in the industry because we have worked on so many different type aircraft over the years. The U mechanics are being sucked up by the LCC’ s because they realize they are a real asset unlike U’s present wall street management does where money rules and the human element of the equation only gets in the way. You cannot posses any better equipment to answer your question. It’s too bad this management see fits to let that asset being frittered like they have with so many other assets over the years. I don't see this airline surviving, period. This is a corporation constantly chasing its tail and it's almost exhausted to death going in circles. This is the reason why the IAM membership is no longer willing participate. Like some other poster likes to state: It’s just the facts, accept it or not.

And what will management do when the mechanics tell 'em to pound sand?
