There will absolutely be an election, of course the timeframe continues to be undetermined.
probably when,
1. The NMB has successfully satisfied the request for a YES/NO ballot.
2. Some feel secure enough to finally proceed with an election.
3. Vocal Union advocates attempt to try and discredit enough of their colleagues.
Ah, a month away and I see nothing has changed.
As to:
#1. Correct....so why in your earlier post did you ask the question "How much longer can an election be delayed, due to a non-filing with an S.O.C. already in place is the interesting part to consider." ????
#2 If the NMB doesn't make a ruling for a Yes/No ballot, the union will probably never feel, as you like to term it, "secure." So they will just file...there would be no motivation or reason not to.
#3. It works both ways. Check out http://nowayafa.org/ and follow the Facebook link to the Discussion group. There you will find a plethora of postings by those with the following initials: D.B., K.J., with runners-up B.P., J.J., R.S and S.A. Talk about trying to discredit their colleagues! Talk about disrespect!! Other members and/or Admins of the site have been caught in lies, deceit, and have, in internal emails (under the thread title "Is Management Funding and Advising NOWAYAFA?") suggested to Mr. Anderson, Ms Smith and Ms Gordon that "laboratory conditions" may no longer be in place so DL should give PMDL f/a's a raise, lower our max duty day to coincide with NW's, give the 5th week of vacation back to those who lost it and more. All in an attempt to thwart the union drive. Our leaders were smart enough NOT to take the suggestion of this barely 2-year FA. (BTW, our VP IFS got back to his email within record time...just a few hours.)
Bottom line: There are less-than-savory and objectionable actions/attitudes from BOTH sides.
