I am voting “No” to the JCR Agreement as a “protest” vote to get the attention of both the GC and the Company.
I urge you to do likewise.
Both the management and the GC are ignoring the HK based pilots and treating us with a fair degree of arrogance. Even if voted through, the Agreement doesn’t take effect for well over a year so there is plenty of time for it to presented again when an effort has been made to appease a fairly p!ssed off HK membership.
If it’s never presented again, what have I lost? Return to Gate…. big deal…. Besides, it seems all the Unions have to get the same sh
t deal and this is catering to the based unions, so we get the deal whether we vote for it or not.
What do I mean by ignoring us and arrogance?
• The new GC- who are you? I know you are busy, but a introductory message would have been nice explaining why you are negotiating concessions to my COS, when I voted for you to get improvements
• The SS/WFS debate. The GC surveyed us and then it seems some communication error between the Company/HKAOA/Jeppesen meant it was always going to be WFS, despite the fact the survey said we wanted SS;- just not good enough!
• It seems all the unions get equal voice. So HKAOA with 2000+ members has the same voice as Canada who is 1/20th in size. The based unions out vote us 4 to 1. That’s not democracy, it’s boll
cks!
GC - If you want my vote, you’ve gotta earn it. This falls well short. I suggest both the GC and Company go away, have a think, and then try again.
JCR Agreement, put me down as “No” –
do likewise and send a message.
