Double Pinocchio

Fahud and Muja time up!! Resign now! Since the pilot's meeting you have done NOTHING!! You guys only think about yourselves! Not only are you incompetent, but you don't even try!! We are still waiting for the pilot's meeting minutes to be published! While you guys take home the sky high salaries just by heating seats upstairs we are facing the same problems we have been bringing to attention for years!!


We are still flying aircrafts without proper maintenance in shitty weather conditions.
We are still penalized or missing one piece of baggage out several hundred we deliver accurately in a day.
We are still pushed and pushed by dispatch and operations unnecessarily to make their numbers look good.
We are still required to go to seawall on charter flights (already informed to DCA).
IAS pilots are still preferred over us for ATR positions. You are doing nothing to increase the number of twin otter pilots and no improvement to starting salaries is the proof for this.

You guys boasted so much that you have total power over flight operations when you took the jobs! But it is all too clear that you guys are PUPPETS of bram!

Iya

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other uses, see IYA.

In Lakota mythology, Iya is a storm-monster, brother of Iktomi the spider. He eats humans and spreads diseases, and uses heads as trophies. This fact, however, does not make him bad or evil; he simply performs a duty and is considered a sacred being by those who consider the old legends as truth. He is the eye of the storm, and offers protection to those caught in his wake. The tornado, the snowstorm, the hurricane or the thunderstorm would all be considered manifestations of this deity. He travels with his storms in a fabulous tipi painted with magical symbols, and when he appears, he is often faceless and formless. His home is said to be under the waters, where he resides with his mother, Unk.
He is considered to be the chief of the North, symbolically encompassing the spheres of winter, famine and disease. He is the guardian of the Aurora Borealis and holds to a rivalry against both the chief of the South, Okaga as well as the thunderbirds, though this is vastly exaggerated in tales told to outsiders.
He is the younger brother of Iktomi, and the pair comprises the two progeny of Inyan, the creator, who is the head of the Lakota pantheon.
