US Airways Has AA Labor Backing for AMR Takeover: Sources

[700UW]

No company asks its employees how they feel about a merger.

CO and UA didnt ask.

Neither did DL and NW.

AA and TW.

AA and Reno.

AA and Air Cal.

Shall I continue?

You are really reaching on this one, lol!

US employees should be rioting right now after Parker offered AA'ers better deals than he's offering to his own people during contract negotiations.

Coming to an agreement with all parties concerned is a bad thing?

 

[Hopeful]

I cannot believe how devious Parker is being about this. Did he stop for a moment to consider how his own employees would feel about this merger? Did he bother to ask them?

Did Carty ask us?

Did Carty ask us?

To be fair, yes, actually. Management tried to negotiate something starting in January 2003. Everyone thought they were bluffing. People like Owens still think they were bluffing...

DL and US? I seem to remember a "Keep Delta our Delta" employee campaign in that one...

I also don't remember DL or UA giving NW or CO's employees better offers than their own people were being offered at the same time...
