Today, Pat Friend, President of the afa-CWA, held a webcast for the Delta Organizing Drive. It ran almost two hours.
There were a couple of items that might be worth mentioning because they are applicable to the APFA.
First, Pat stated that it is the afa-CWA's goal to represent all flight attendants. (after 1:19 in webcast)IMHO, this means that she will stage a Raid on APFA if she is successful in organizing Delta.
Second, she discussed the seniority integration and stated that she was working with ex TWA flight attendants to legislatively extend recall rights (sometime around 1:19 into the webcast). IMHO, this will be the group that she uses to justify an APFA raid. Expect this quote "We were asked by a group of AA flight attendants to step in."
She actually used the term "watched in horror."
If you want to see the webcast, go to afa-CWA Delta Organizing Webcast . It has been archived.
Yes, I am stirring the pot a bit.
However, if you like APFA's representation, you should pass this link along to your leadership. Fighting off an afa-CWA raid will be very, very expensive and they should start planning now.
ah
