Is AMFA threatening to let its members vote again? What is this, the fourth, fifth proposal thrown out there? I thought the last one was bad. Hell it even had a couple hundred job positions in it. Is this what union members have to look forward to by letting the unions negotiate for them? "We will take you off strike status and put you on lay-off status." 
Give me a break. Did NWA or AMFA make this proposal, or did both of them write it with AMFA on their knees under the table? Give me a freaking break will ya? Is this actually going up for vote? AMFA should simply accept it and not put its members through this embarrassment. They are just trying to save face, which is insane because they have already lost it all. Praise to the almighty unions.

This is just too much for me. Where is this going to leave the other unions on the property? Is there any type of damage control out there to keep this fiasco from affecting the negotiation power of the other unions? How is AMFA going to be able to effectively represent its members at other companies and how is this going to affect other unions negotiating power? Is this the end of union strong-arm tactics? With out the strike threat what power does unions have over companies? Are unions doomed to become overpaid babysitters?
This strike is going to have a very crippling effect throughout the aviation unions. Will union members continue to pay dues to unions that have been rendered ineffective and powerless?

Well 'Cods, you think your immune from the NWA hatchet man? Your next!!!Is AMFA threatening to let its members vote again? What is this, the fourth, fifth proposal thrown out there? I thought the last one was bad. Hell it even had a couple hundred job positions in it. Is this what union members have to look forward to by letting the unions negotiate for them? "We will take you off strike status and put you on lay-off status."
I heard ol' Neil "the butcher" Cohen stated the replacment workers (scabs) make too much, excellent news I'd say.
Guess what? You not going to have a vote on anything NWA feels like doing to your dumbass, your an "at will" employee, along with your scab buddies. Your just going to get bent over, and you "will" like it, (That's a good dog, now roll over, speak boy, pat on the head....). You rail against honorable unionists that stood up to the NWA criminals because you know you never will, your cowardice wouldn't allow it. You have agreed to work for less, and it will only go down from here, what a fool. The strikers won...period...no more Scab Air BS. NWA knows they can yank your scab chain without a whimper, just like clubbing baby seals, so easy. This vote will be a sound NO vote I believe. The new-meat clowns like you at failing Scab Air just don't know what's coming for them. The former iam scabs should know better, just too dense I surmise. Enjoy the ride down 'Cods. http://www.duluthsuperior.com/mld/duluthsu...cs/13391331.htm

Pto,
If I may be so bold as to offer you a bit of advice: Start training for a new career now.
You see, you are too expensive. Even by your minimal standards, if the WTO (World Trade Organization) has its way, you will be replaced by foreign workers who will be brought into the US to take your job.
I don't know who's going to stop this. It seems the Bush Administration likes this idea. It's good for the global community. It doesn't really matter if it screws up the national economy.
Do some "Google" research. I recommend you start with "Insourcing" and "World Trade Organization."
Very scary stuff.
Seriously, check it out.

Just in case you ever wonder why folks think union members are brainless thugs, just look your post then look in the mirror. You are so helpless that you have to make threats. You are like the play yard bully. No brains and no talent. Perhaps those the requirements to work in a union?

As if this is different than any other year I have worked in SOC. Someone fakes in sick, I find a hapless line holder who shows up for work like they are supposed to and I will reasign them (hopfully not adding moe than 1 day to their skd) and the process will start over again. I cover what I can, cancle what I can't but I get to go home after my 8 hours. Same thing as every other day of every year.
But I fail to see what any of this has to do with a union puke making a threat to another employee. Is that something that you condone? Have you done that before? Are you one of those bitter FA's who walks around with a scab list from 1993?

Its no wonder people think management criminals are greedy liars that would screw their own mother for a dollar. I fail to see where B.O.B threatened the scab POS, in fact he stated he would hate to see it.
You want to talk about brainless DUMBF**k management kitty? This is a classic to end all classics. This Sawis CEO McCornhole is sure a high roller with the company credit card. Must have been some kind of corporate elite party. Of course, he never made the charges, and he never had to authorize every $10,000 he spent. I hear now the stippers and bottles of Dom cost him his $600,000 a year job. Gee, thats too bad. Its no surprise corporate upper management today are so reviled. Just a bunch of lying, cheating, greedy a$$holes. http://search.netscape.com/ns/boomframe.js...ml%253F.v%253D7
