Way to go flight attendants. You've got them where you want them now. Beat them down, don't give an inch. Then they'll have to go out of business. Then you will have WON!!!!! Have fun pointing out the emergency exits at McDonalds.

Holy smoke. I just read in the newspaper that a UPS DC-8 made an emergency landing at PHL due to a fire on board. I didn't realize they had SCABS working on their planes. If they'd have had union employees doing their maintenance, this never would have happened. When will these airlines learn?

CSAR: Your comments will get nowhere with people like groundcontrol. He is a big time union person. He would NEVER do ANYTHING unless he got paid to do it. Your volunteer work is great and I wish more people would do as you do. However, I don't think many pro-union would ever "work" for no...

You're right 3rd seat. It was an AA not a TW. Funny how when AA bought TW I still considered AA as TW. My bad.

The commentators on this board, or any other board for that matter, have lots of opinions. None of us knows who reads this board. Those who read this board may do it for many reasons. I challenge you to make your ideas heard. Take the fictional position of a CEO of an airline in bankruptcy...

There you go again, Trons. When PATCO went on strike, they were, in essence, CRIMINALS! What they did was ILLEGAL! No court injunction needed. If an injunction was necessary, why don't we have to get court injunctions against bank robbers? Wake up, Trons. Anything to spout venum against the...

Local 12: Yes, I do detest some of those in power. Namely those I mentioned. And no, I do not have an agenda regarding Government but I wish we had a much smaller Government. I'm very glad that Pres. Bush has us fighting terrorism on their home turf instead of ours. They did that once and I...

Gee 12: I guess you must be a mind reader to determine that I detest the Government. Sorry to tell you that your mind must have a problem. I have no trouble with our Government as long as it is doing its job, taking care of us. And it is now that the liberals are being kept in their places...

OK Trons" I get it. Just because someone claims that they are a hazard doesn't MAKE IT SO. How novel! I guess your claims don't mean jack! And Valujet and AirMidwest was all because of somebody other than a union employee. Must not have been a union employee had anything to do with UA at...

You guys just don't understand it. If NWA was such a hazard to the public these days, as you say, why haven't they been grounded? Why hasn't the Government just stopped them from operating? Hackman, you say "Democratic unions are needed more than ever." Is that so they can protect your job...

Hackman: PTO is an "at will" employed person. He has a job and does his best every day. The vast majority of workers in this country fall into that category. Union lemmings like you, who do the bidding of their handlers, are sit-at-home unemployed grunts. What do you do with your contract...

Hackman: What are YOU doing with your life now that you don't have a real job? Burger flipper at MickyD's? Pizza man at Domino's? Honey truck driver for the local septic company? None of those? Just sitting around the house while your wife goes to work to try to put food on the table while...

AP Tech: At an airline, there are Management who have never been union and there is Management of union employees, who are union members who hold Management positions, ie. Foreman. The latter types, who manage union people, would not "narc" on a union guy who can't find his butt with both...

I'm sorry. The same misspelled words over and over again are signs of STUPIDITY not typos. If you don't know how to spell, how do you communicate ACCURATELY on a job? If I ever saw a misspelled word on a resume, the resume went into the waste basket. By the way, your "get use to" should be...

You union people are still bitching about who can rig the sails correctly while the ship is listing and soon to slip below the surface. Give it up. The people hired by NWA to do the jobs you didn't want are doing those jobs and not sitting on their lazy asses bitching. The guys who are...
