You can contact IAM DL 142, they are the ones that handled the CO crew rest grievance as the IAM represents CO's FAs.

Bajababe made a great point in another thread. Looking at the Philadelphia screens it seems certain AFA reps are denying blocks to there fellow co workers! You know you are out AFA but you bid a primary line anyway and then drop all the trips? These days it doesn't fly. Don't let them get you down Bajababe they are gone soon as they came.

What do you mean by denying blocks to fellow co workers? If they have dropped all their trips for AFA does this mean they can ETB the hell out of their month or augment if they are a secondary lineholder? I wonder if this is going on in CLT, anyone know???

You got it. I know it isn't happening in my base but I know a lot of people in PHL are watching it scratching their heads. With a little catcrew investigation you can see whats going on.

AFA officials have been doing this for years...they bid a block and it's then claimed PPO---pay purposes only. Take a look at the catcrew seniorty screen---I think it's 40. There's Carol Austin at the top of the list. She bids and then it gets dropped. However, the block is then awarded to another F/A. Pull up under option 20 the block number and you will see the correct amount of blockholders on the block and then an added one that is PPO....so, someone IS getting awarded the block they are not denying the block. the next senior person that wants it gets it.

I know what PPO is. These guys (cough) Dan, are not PPO. They bid a Primany line or Secondary and magic all the trips and gone. Then they build to thier like. Said persons augment like crazy first come/serve on trips they never could hold otherwise. It's take a line away period.

You all are acting like 7th graders and should be ashmed. Baja did more for us in her 30 plus years of AFA service than most of you will acomplish in a lifetime. Anyone who has flown with her knows her work ethic and how much she cares about this flight attendant group. She types what she is thinking and her mind runs fast, so what? I can follow it but then I have had the pleasure of knowing her for 15 years back to the SFO days. If I were her I would walk into the crew room and throw her 2000 contract at all you and laugh my *** off and leave. Look at what we have now. The jokes on us baby not her!

Last round of downsizing brought no offers of buyouts or anything else for that matter.

 

[Travelpro72]

I'll second that. She has more brains than many in their pinky finger. She know the contract upside down and backwards. So she types faster than what her intelligent mind is thinking. Big deal. I understand EXACTLY where she's coming from. I'll also second the 2000 contract comment. How's the current one working out for all of you. Leave her alone already. Cutsie tootsie cutups on here for her posts? C'mon now. Walk in her heels and then talk. 🙄 Never met but luv ya already. 😉

 

[BajaBabe]

thanks all of you who stick up for me. who cares those who knew my work. the company knew who came first ...........The Employees ..........What could be better than to really be a Union Advocate. I am so blessed to have been part of all of your lives.

 

[Travelpro72]

BajaBabe you are fantastic and your passion is something not seen today. Certainly not by anyone in office at this stage of the game. 99.9% couldn't hold a candle to what you know. Hell what you may have forgotten they'll never know. Your the bestest sweetie.
