No one cares about SWA. You seem to have real difficulties seeing that.
Wanna bet? You are the one that has real difficulty understanding that people do indeed follow the industry and do care what comes out at SWA today, guarantee you this...
 
Have you guys reached 7 years yet? That vote of yours seems to be taking an awfully long time.

Don’t answer. I don’t actually give a chit.
Like I care Weazz! You Fleet guys would be done if you didn't have maintenance in your contract talks. Our TWU ramp seems to do o.k.

Then why did you ask? You really are a clown.

American Airlines Sues Mechanics Unions - The Wall Street ...

Same thing happened to us guys. Don't let it bother you, just keep doing your legal and ethical jobs. Don't let the co intimidate you guys...

OOPS!! I meant to post this in the mechanics thread where it matters most and they care...
 
That is awful. If our proposal is now the United contract then we lose most everything union related. The Association will make out like a bandit though with the unlimited part time. Virtually doubles the membership and dues overnight.
Who's we?

Who's we?

He seems to have made up a new scenario in his mind from something I wrote that was said over one of the TWU Podcasts by I think Gary Peterson.

He’s made a posting on his FB Group page using my real name saying that I’m an advisor to John Samuelsen and that the Association has demanded to take the UAL Fleet Agreement for us to vote on.

The longer this drags out the more this kooks mind seems to run away from him.
 
Thank you for informing me caller. Yes it really has been Months now that they’ve been trolling me to no avail or response.

Again I just really have no interest in people from other Airlines who for some reason feel the need to try to get heavily involved in our business at the Airline we work for. Particularly when they have their own issues they should be concentrating on.

If they’re using the tactics and behavior you say they are then they’re becoming amazingly desperate for my attention and have reached a new level to try and gain it.

It's called sharing same industry news. All groups share their contract info just like all the management at each airline shares with their management. It's so the co. can not BS it's employees like AA use to do, but now too social media informed and can no longer do it. SWA use to do it here too.
BTW here's the latest weez. Hope this helps you guys and the mechanics get to a ILC JCBA...

It's a no brainer. When your representational union brings an offer that the members wanted you get great turnouts and big results. I never seen a contract pass by so much until now.
