Re: Congrats Wasaya
Better start wearing those ties and obeying every rule in the ALPA bible. Have fun with that and the ALPA psychos that think they're just the best thing ever.

Re: Congrats Wasaya
ALPA? Isn't that dogfood? Pilots should eat better than that...
Drinking lots of coffee lately, at a nice safe jungle desk, wishing I were flying......

The ALPA code of ethics espouses professionalism .. and you see the problem where????
Ask any pilot in any ALPA airline what they think about the union, and I would wager pints and chicken parts that the majority are happier than when they were when they were not represented.
Geez .. can't even send well wishes without getting flamed ...

Re: Congrats Wasaya
Reading their code of ethics I note that only male pilots are bound by the code....no mention of female pilots.
The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no
After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.

Re: Congrats Wasaya
A company gets the union they deserve. I keep hearing about how management is nickel and diming the boys and girls up there over the last godknowshowlong years. Considering there is a pilot shortage…not a smart move. And see what happened. Another example of a company thinking they can hose the pilots and get away with it.

Re: Congrats Wasaya
There are woman pilots? Heh, what are you going to tell me next, Mexican pilots?
Seriously though, working for an alpa carrier was my most pleasant experience yet in this industry. I'm sure there are good owner/operators out there, I've unfortunatelly yet to meet one.

penis fish
This fish is feared to attack humans and swim into an orifice (the vagina, anus, or even the penis—and deep into the urethra). Because of spines protruding from the fish, it is almost impossible to remove except through surgery.

ALPA ...i can take them or leave them.

Re: Congrats Wasaya
That's it, no more f*****g Avcanada with coffee!
Remember that Larson cartoon with the bear standing there in front of his wife, he has a dart in his ass and a tag on his head and she's ragging on him for being late? I have an image of a pilot in a uniform with penis fish sticking out of all the orifices with the dispatcher ragging on him... oh gawd...

Just a professional at AvCanada. Now, when I'm in the air, that's a different story.Canoehead wrote:That sounds professional.
If someone is that relieved when ALPA moved in, maybe they should'a moved on a while before? Was it that bad?
Hey, where'd the penis fish thing come from? The more you read about it, the more you can scare the hell out of any kid from peeing in the pool!
Skycoupe, I wasn't flaming you.

Re: Congrats Wasaya
EI
I guess there are people at Wasaya that decided to make a difference, and make some changes to get some changes made. And it's not just "someone", it is the majority of the pilots that voted the union in.
You weren't flaming me directly, but since I stated that I was in the ALPA family, and you were flaming ALPA, then indirectly ... ahh .. no hard feelings

The ALPA code of ethics is an excellent read. It had me in stitches. (And I almost blew orange juice out my nose)

Re: Congrats Wasaya
Does this mean Wasaya pilots now have to pay Union dues?
The only three things a wingman should ever say: 1. "Two's up" 2. "You're on fire" 3. "I'll take the fat one"
Re: Congrats Wasaya
Yes, but they will likely more than make up for the dues through improved wages and working conditions.
Re: Congrats Wasaya
Just sit back, open a beer, and enjoy...
