The US Airways AFA MEC Chairwoman cares NOTHING for the interests of MidAtlantic flight attendants and relies on Bobbie "I don't know my own butt from a whole in the ground" Riggle to do her cow-towing to the company. The AFA likes to throw around the phrase "contractual language", but yet there is no published copy of the MidAtlantic agreement in its entirety! I guess if they had not wasted half a year negotiating a "flow-through" for the Pittsburgh dinosaurs (which clearly none of them wanted in the first place), perhaps then we would have a copy. It then occurs to me that the AFA is more concerned with protecting the "rights" of senior, bad attitude employees who do nothing but further tarnish the US Airways image, than it does in protecting the junior employees who are being sold down the river at MidAtlantic. Are people aware that MidAtlantic is being sold and with it, our furloughed employees are not guaranteed seniority, pay, or ANYTHING? We would not have come to work for MidAtlantic if we had known we wouldn't have AFA representation (we are SUPPOSED to, but we are the proverbial "forgotten red headed stepchild"). The AFA needs to step up to the plate and protect ALL of her members, not just the ones in Crapsburgh. Contractual language or no contractual language, as a member in good standing, I demand the AFA fight for what is right!
