Did you just agree with a quote from yourself? I enjoy a good conversation with myself as much as the next guy, but I don't do it on the internet. Advice for the WJ rivet bangers and wrench turns….head to the open market if you think you deserve more. And mechanics are (were?) heading to the open m...

Copied from another post, because I couldn't have said it better myself. People are... "Tired of living in the most expensive cities on the planet eating "shrinkflation sized" boxes of Kraft dinner so the rest of the bills can be paid" ...while watching executives continue to rake in record compens...

Not enough guys. You should have held out and bled them a bit. :roll: :roll: Blah, blah, blah…..hold the line….ask for more while doing less…..cause more to eventually get outsourced….raise prices for your customer……someone doesn’t like it, go somewhere else!!! Get out with your negativity. Your un...

My god your a fucking douche. . Two can play……If anything, this post should get someone banned. Admins: please review the above for harassment/ personal attack / vulgar language. That is clearly against the rules of this site. If you want to report me - fine. I don't care. I said what I said..... B...

How long before we see more WJ mtc outsourcing. Heard research has been accelerated. Only so much budget for maintenance…..think AC and Aveos. My god your a fucking douche. .

Ha….but you two took the time to reply ;) :D Show me the rules I broke to be kicked off this site and I will leave myself. You two and many here, just like to hear your daily affirmations and to rub each others……um, backs….to make you feel better about choices you were involved with at WJ and to fee...

Best article I have read in a while: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/commentary/article-westjet-mechanics-strike-delays/ Need to remember that it’s 2 years of technical school, not a University Diploma or an MBA here. Followed by 4 years of apprenticeship. 4 years?!!?! You must be a WestJe...

May I remind you….Canada is a democracy….you selected: WestJet as a job (and could / should ask about compensation and increases during your interview…..the door is not locked….you are not forced to work there if you are not happy), 2: the liberals, and 3: your union representatives!!

Appreciate the support for people like me with opposite views. I’ll exit this thread if it’s hurting the card carriers feelings that didn’t get their way. As it was said, you should have known this would happen…..the card doesn’t mate you invisible! Later.

https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/westjet-starts-cancelling-flights-as-mechanics-prepare-for-possible-job-action-1.6941381 I’m still laughing and wondering the union kool-aid you are drinking. What he said was fact. There was still three negotiations scheduled?!?! Union postured….and you lost. Hahaha Admi...

Great....now we will see mass layoffs. What a fucking joke. https://www.amfanational.org/?zone=/unionactive/view_article.cfm&HomeID=923754 Haha. You all don’t get it. You need to think big picture and like a CEO. There is a budget and pool for wages and compensation. It grows, what are they to do?!...

He said the mechanics are being represented by a U.S. union trying to make inroads into Canada at the expense of 250,000 Canadians planning to travel on WestJet this weekend. "They deliberately chose this weekend to create maximum damage," he said. https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/westjet-starts-cancelli...

Years and years of fat cats getting fatter. The folks actually doing the work getting a smaller and smaller piece of the pie. Go get what you deserve! You've got my support, WJ AMEs. Pfff….these guy ‘fat cats’ steer the company and fall hard when it fails. I feel you should get something but this c...

There’s fair and reasonable and then theres AMFA. I’ll be sharing with everyone that it is the AMEs and not WestJet. Westjet was doing what they agreed too! You don’t like the compensation, find a new job! Quit hiding behind your union. Your Union is a bunch of lazy dinosaurs….this is an embarrassin...

Comical... WB international flying is WB international flying….whether teal or red. 7 x 787s is a lot different than 90 widebodies going to all continents (Antarctica doesn't count) with many more on order WJ is not a Flag Carrier. Air Canada is. It's apples to oranges Well, compare AC to Delta and...

Comical…..union dues well spent . Pilots are united when beneficial to themselves but turn on each other sooooo quickly. Trash them and then tell them they have to join you in the picket line for support.

Someone’s panties are too tight!! Haha…..I’m saving this to quote in a couple months. Delta pay…..Haha. Good luck. I got no skin in it but your tone and aggression is hilarious and just shows how a union card helps the small person grow a foot…..just like a small dog; all bark, no bite! Me tough…pay...

If you take a look at pilot pay for a 172 and a 737 you can get a rough idea of how the industry values the increased complexity and responsibility. Even with conservative numbers if you say a 172 pilot makes 60k and a 737 pilot averages 120k you can see that 35 an hour to fix 172s equates to 70 an...
