Hope nothing bad happens between now and november. eg. $80 oil, recession, terrorist attack anywhere in the world, war with iran... you get the picture. Anything for the company to say we can't afford to.

Something will end up happening. We need to look as far out as Nov. 2008 because we will not have a contract by Apr. 2008.
Then why not the obvious, use the early opener clause that's in the contract and declare that the contract will be opened in 90 days. 30 days from then call for mediation, and 30 days later call for an impasse so we can truly vent our frustrations by November.

AMFAMAN it's the TWU. It's going to take Dennis Burchette 11 months to get his hands warmed up in the company's pockets before we can talk.
That's right, besides their goal is to soak the company on a liquer bill for 11 months before negotiating the contract.AMFAMAN it's the TWU. It's going to take Dennis Burchette 11 months to get his hands warmed up in the company's pockets before we can talk.
Then they might be in the right state of mind to sell the next turd of a company written contract.
Looks like whomever wrote the press release is already drunk (or stupid):
No wonder these dumbasses can't negotiate their way out of a paper bag; my nine year olds understand that $41 is a 700-percent (not 800-percent as these bubbas say) increase over $5. It is eight times larger, which equals 700 percent. Mastered this in elementary school.
If you can't get the basics correct, heaven help you on the tough stuff.

Can you be born again AND have your hands in the company's pockets? :huh:
Gentlemen,
We all know that the TWU was fully apprised of the KERP/SERP/PUP fiasco. Given that AMR had to allow ECLAT permission to be hired by the TWU, if ECLAT had failed to apprise the TWU of the KERP/SERP/PUP structure: ECLAT would have been in Breach of their Fiduciary Duty to the TWU if they failed to disclose the presence of the KERP/SERP/PUP plans to the TWU Leadership.
The failure to file a Breach of Fiduciary Relationship action by the TWU against ECLAT or AMR is proof positive that ECLAT informed the TWU of the existence of those plAAns.
The TWU would have been able to present an affirmative defense against any AMR Sect. 1113 Bankruptcy Proceeding while pursuing ECLAT for breach of fiduciary duty if the TWU had never been allowed access to the information.

With all due disrespect, can y'all just leave his faith out of the argument?
Mock his actions or inactions all you want, but mocking someone's faith is classless.
Hey and he has a batchelors in something and a masters in something else, thats what makes him so qualified!
Would it be a breaach if the company was picking up the tab for ECLAT, afterall the company used them less then a year earlier in a presentation to the unions. Maybe they got a 2 for 1 deal, do the presentation and the sell later on.

You don't know the story behind it, and nobody asked you your opinion, company man. I'll mock what I want when I'm paying the price. Although I do get a rise out of you crowing about what is "classless" or not. Please....
Don't you have some "high level" meeting to fly to? Hopefully you'll get stuck on an AA 767 you detest so much.
