Read your own post you bitter twisted old F*&k! Why do you think ACPA did that? It is a continuation of the whipsawing and fighting that has become the reality of our airline!!! With the current situation, everytime one of us goes into negots or before an arbitrator, I have to be looking over my shoulder wondering if it is back to the right seat, or maybe another pay cut. What you just described above is exactly the situation I would like to avoid in the future.For Christ sakes idiot read the fu$KING POSTS, acpa JUST went infront of
Teplitsky and tried to reduce the Jazz seniority list by 40%....................and you blame me. Your a moron traf, keep up the butt licking.
Let me ask you this mr. airline know-it-all genius. What happens if the company tries to move D8s to GGN/CMA? Do we fight it? DO we scope them? Do we just let them go? Tell me smartass, what is our move when faced with this problem?
You can't tell me that ACPA is currently doing anything that we wouldn't do faced with 25 hulls being passed down to the next group?! Don't even think about telling me otherwise! The fact is, when ACPA scopes, they are assholes, but when we do it, we are just protecting what is ours. Well, which way is it? I scope bad or necessary? Scope is a reality because without out it, you would be making 50k/year as a skipper on a big Jet working for GGN.
I am not going to apologise for wanting to put your 20 year old fight to bed. It is playing into the company's hands like a well oiled plan and we are the ones taking it from behind. The constant bickering will simply promote more days like you mentioned with ACPA and ALPA meeting in an arbitrators office trying to decide who gets what next year. Sorry, I have heard your "be afraid, be very afraid" speech too many times and frankly, I am starting to wonder which side I need to fear the most. Is it the side that will do anything to put a nail in Jazz's coffin with scope, Jets are US, arbitrators or any tool they can get their hands on. Maybe it is the side that refuses to look into the future and will do anything to get revenge upon ACPA even if it means shooting themselves in the foot to do it.
You call me the idiot ,but what would you call a guy who is being played by the company like a 2 dollar fiddle and will not consider any options at all if it has to with ACPA even if it means lower pay, lower pension, more work days, less benefits etc...? Dumbass comes to mind!
If asked in a crewroom, I would say the same thing. It is foolish and dangerous for the Jazz pilots not to consider every option out there to stop the company from cutting us a new hole in 2009. Just because we talk to ACPA, does not mean anything has to happen. Our last round of GS talks is a good example of that. I know they were close but for some reason, it didn't happen. No skin off our noses now was it?
I don't even know why I bothered to reply to your post. You have your mind made up already and will never consider even looking at a solution because you are only interested in getting even, no matter what it costs!
