NCEPT debate thread

View attachment 2682
?‍♂️ Vote different next time? Legit though this is why we need full accountability of the NEB. This “trust us, we know what is best for you” mentality does not cut the cake anymore. People are being screwed time and time again by this school of thought. Everyone wants to be on the “in” crowd and do what is best for them, but who looks out for the smaller facilities and the membership as a whole? I look back at this last national election, laughing at how people thought Zilonis was nuts but then remember he wanted to have open and honest discussions about the NCEPT instead of this “smoke/mirrors with back door wheeling and dealing cloak and dagger bullshit.”

So when you called Mick and voiced your concerns about NCEPT to him, he said "don't worry I got ya bro, I know what's best for you, I'll get your opinion when i ask for it"?
 
If I could have voted against Mick I certainly would have, unfortunately that is not my Region. That being said I cannot begin to tell you how many emails I’ve sent, questions I have asked, talks I have had with people on it. Apparently I am just a shit stirrer as one FacRep pointed out to me from the Mountain Region.
 
I strongly disagree with these changes to NCEPT. It feels like quite a concession on NATCAs part. And the "temporary" tag makes me nervous. Hopefully it's actually really temporary. I also think the yellers on this site before today have been under appreciating the gains we've made in controller movement and how bad the old system really was in certain circumstances for the ERRing employees and the facilities that were trying to add people.

The moment people begin to accept it as the norm, it will become permanent or “improved,” mark my words. People want change? Send emails, make phone calls, get involved, and vote. Have these discussions around the facility, stop the bullshitting, get up and do something about it.

THE GENIUS WHO RUNS NCEPT

Call out the spirits in my basement

Go ahead and enlighten me, which part?

Sure, let me just quote the posts you deleted, oh wait...

Are you honestly saying that criticism of Mick Devine, his history, viewpoints, policy positions and general competence aren't on topic in this thread? Oh, you consider any and all of this to be personal attacks. Wonderful.

The man is takes full ownership of NATCA's involvement with NCEPT. He talks like a total thug, isn't very intelligent, and doesn't even understand the issues that a significant percentage of the people he's representing have with the transfer policy. We're absolutely allowed to criticize him in this thread, and doing so is completely on-topic. It's one fool representing thousands of your brothers and sisters and he's got the FAA's **** so far down his throat he can barely articulate a sentence.

Calling other users names are all the deleted posts were.

All totally on topic. If you can do it with appropriate language. If not, it'll be adjusted.

Also on topic, and won't get deleted or changed.

Wasn't me that deleted you.
 
They called HR and they figured something got lost so they started up on the transfer paperwork and my pay is getting adjusted too

Word ask them if they found that 40 hr TOA my ATM promised me for not calling out sick for 2 consecutive weeks.
 
This sounds like it's going to suck. I won the lottery and got my home facility right out of the academy. But after 2 downgrades and a consolidation it's all gone to hell so I want to get out and these new rules make it sound very difficult. My only consolation is that I'm on a much higher pay scale, but at this point in my life money isn't everything.

CAK?
 
The funny thing is people voted for Mick because they thought Robey was part of "the swamp." Now that it turns out he's out of his depth, all the Zilonis people are acting like they knew this would happen. What timeline was that?

I've defended NCEPT in the past because while it was bad for few, it overall produced much more movement and had actual guidelines, unlike the old system. The changes are terrible. They're crippling to movement, but even if they were good it was obviously negotiated by a donut. There's no built in expiration for the "temporary" changes. Instead of having to negotiate to continue them, now we have to negotiate to end them.

What is with all the case by case and extenuating circumstances bullshit? Are we supposed to submit a narrative with ERR paperwork?

Also, deleting posts continues to be a joke. Everyone here is an adult. Need to use PC language, I don't even do that on the recorded line
