Upcomming negotiations

Post by linebacker35 »

Ok, so Air Canada just posted a very large profit... so what is managments reasoning behind claims that they need to reduce labor costs? :shock:

In the wake of profits in the states managment of airlines like United, American, Delta, and so on are preparing to give large pay raises(not by choice) yet in Canada managment says pay cuts are needed... it doesnt make any sense

Troll alert.

BTW, if a city happens to have fewer fires for a year or two or three, should they argue that firefighter salaries should go down on as well? Hey, fewer fires, fewer calls (even from your alleged and laughable "busiest pumper station in NA"), might as well cut the pay, right?

Moron.

Another BTW: I realise that alleged wannabe astrophysicists might not need to have a great grasp of the English language, but it might serve to at least spellcheck your posts. "Upcomming" indeed.

You can't even think up your own troll. You just ripped off Main Gear's troll from the Jazz forum.

Did you know that AC is still in the bottom 1/4 of NA airlines in terms of profit margins? An airline AC's size should be posting BILLION DOLLAR profits to be considered "healthy". You've got a ways to go.

Thanks Tony. I wouldn't expect you to counter with any logic. After all we went over this very same topic months ago and you couldn't wrap your mind around it then, either.

BILLION DOLLAR profits are achievements of only a handful of airlines around the world to the best of my knowledge. And certainly a rare occurrance in N. America. You would have been more correct had you lowered your profit expectations of most airlines the size of AC and hence avoid being called a moron. Your constant obsession with the "health" of AC is consuming you. I would let it go.
