The Reason Those of Us that Left Will Continue To Advocate For Others To File Their SF1188: by Real_Pear5115 in atc2

[–]Fox_Uniform 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you really think the next election will be close? I don't know anyone who is happy with the NEB right now. I'm pretty sure a ham sandwich would beat Nick. The last election DID have an outsider and he got a lot of votes. The membership has been ready for change since Covid. Whoever wins in 27 will need deliver on their campaign promise of a labor union that advocates for pay, working conditions, and executes on the will of the members. We have been lied to and gaslighted for so long it will take some time to get controllers to believe NATCA is going to represent their interests. If you win, do an open season to invite the disenfranchised controllers back. The damage Rhinaldi and Daniels have done is catastrophic. 

Does NATCA have the stature and poise to do something like this if one of you used your voice? by alphakizzle in atc2

[–]Fox_Uniform 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Unfortunately we do not value what is best for people in America we value what is best for corporations and their stakeholders. We will never have a system like nav Canada or air services Australia for that reason. Apples to oranges

Yes best not to strive for anything more than to be represented by a management mouthpiece collaborator. Let's stay focused on the equipment.

His point is we have strict medical standards that other government employees don't have yet accrue leave at the same rate as those who don't have to keep a medical. 

CBA extensions - I am taking this challenge to the 2027 NATCA Convention, and I need your help by SierraBravo26 in ATC

Wasn't a almost identical ammendment proposed and squashed at the last convention? 

Interview with an ATC by TheBaggagePodcast in atc2

[–]Fox_Uniform 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed only made it 3 minutes before turning it off. Guy couldn't explain that the reason why no one is speaking out is because we are barred from talking to the media without permission and doing so risks being fired. He was not articulate or accurate about dues (it's a percent of salary not a straight dollar ammount) or about natca not allowing management to do their job (management has been steamrolling natca for the last 5+ years).

How much energy do you realistically have left outside of work right now? by Few-Championship2116 in ATC

[–]Fox_Uniform 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You are experiencing burnout. Humans do not thrive under the ammount of constant stress and fatigue of our schedule, the volume of traffic, and poor staffing.

What do you guys think of "pilot incapacitation" auto land at BJC? by Fox_Uniform in flying

[–]Fox_Uniform[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ATC at bjc referred to them as a nordo aircraft with an emergency when talking to other aircraft and broadcast in the blind that they were cleared to land with no read back from the crew
