ALPA AAA MEC Thread for 8/10-8/17

[700UW]

Dear AWA MEC & Key Committee Member,

As far as my background, I am a union activist who has created and participates in a number of Yahoogroups. My writings reach literally thousands of pilots per day and many informed people believe I was the single most important line employee factor in US Airways surviving. Why? I lead the grass roots effort to overcome the actions of the PIT/PHL Reps. during bankruptcy.

Yea, your a union man all right, NOT!

This is what your own union wrote about you!

MEC CODE-A-PHONE UPDATE

July 26, 2002


This is Roy Freundlich with US Airways an MEC update for Friday, July 26, with two new items:
Item 1. Today the Charlotte Observer published an anti-union editorial from one of our pilots, titled "Unions can Sink US Airways," that aggressively promotes management’s objectives on achieving concessions from other labor groups. The editorial goes so far as to suggest that the CWA union leadership, who represent customer service employees, is misleading their members on their negotiating activity, and implies that management’s side of a dispute is more accurate.

This editorial does not in any way represent ALPA’s position, understanding, or sentiment, on other unions and their sincere efforts to represent their members. ALPA has received no reports, nor would it assign any value to reports, that suggest that any union is misleading their membership. The pilot author of the editorial holds no union position in ALPA. The anti-union public statements from one of our pilot-ALPA members is regrettable.

We urge all pilots to contact their reps or the Comm Center for accurate updates on restructuring negotiations and the activity of other unions. We also request that all pilots refrain from promoting any management anti-union propaganda or chastise other employees in the media. There is little to be gained from such activity other than embarrassment for yourself, your fellow pilots, US Airways, and ALPA.

Describes you to a tee!

Especially since it was written about you.

It appears the AWA MEC and their vocal supporters have gone under ground. Where is AWA320, Junebug, Prechillill, etc.? Considering recent exhanges with the AWA MEC and their communications I believe the AWA pilots got the message that their correspondence, email mesages, and posts where increasingy the resolve of the US Airways pilots to never, ever let the Nicolau Award proceed.

Regards,

USA320Pilot

So, I don't post for a day and I go "under ground?"

I'll always be here checking every thread you post.

We are always watching you. And your little article in the U-Turn went over like a lead turd.

Later Rodney D!

I guess now that USA320Pilots hypocrisy has been exposed, he understands the futility of posting here.

And check out what the editor of U-Turn posted about him on the AWA Boards:

"Is out to lunch? Maybe. And he has flip-flopped on a some issues over there. The latest being his on-again, off-again support for removing ALPA as our CBA. But changing conditions require changing positions. To lock ones head in one direction is the sign of stupidity. Look what happened to the East with their absurd DOH position in the arbitration. They got their lunches handed to them.

does have a lot of support from the group known over there as the "GAGers" (the Get-Along-Gang). "

GAGers -

Moderator reminder:
Even though most on here know who he is, do not post names. Name has been deleted.

Name removed by moderator...see above ref. using names.

GAGers -

What I can't grasp is why he thinks sending mass email via his yahoo news group to our MEC is going to do anything at all. He claims to have this huge following of membership however if that were really the case why say it at all, why not just do it??????? Sept 25 is just around the corner Junebug and all indications point to management extremely tired of the east antics. I will make like my east buddy Nostradamas and predict that bases within bases will soon open!! Talk about getting kicked, this one is going to feel like they got the boot by a mule...

And I'm senior to him!!!

Ya gotta love that!!

GAG stands for Give-Away-Gang, and yes, he is one of their heroes.

Amazing how long a line pilot can pretend to have the perspective of an investment banker and still have people buy into it. :down:

Only in your fantasy world.

Tell your great grandchildren that you "had a lottery ticket" that you could not cash.

Oh, and tell the girls they really should keep a razor around, to trim that upper lip as I assume it is genetic and not because of excessive steroid use.

Hey, and being young enough, the best part is you might get drafted in the morons global war against genetic defects, or something like that.

Good one ninja-puddin'? You shook me up with that last post. Don't know if I can respond.

Anyhoo, break any of your fellow pilot's arms lately? And what up with the TSA? Did ALPA get your thank you card for getting your job back?

Just wonderin'.

You lost your edge, little girl.

Is that C-4 under your Halloween ninja suit, or just fat. and the fake weapons. Bet you have an excellent time getting those through security, oh, do you commute from PHX? Well, that would explain everything, the fact that for five hours, no one is screened. What a great system you are a part of.

Oh, an the bottom part of the picture seems to indicate that you are looking forward to meeting me. Sorry for you, I am not that type. Try your local Republican.

 

[Dog Wonder]

He will be back.

Watch cacti grow? Fry eggs on the asphalt? Stare at the spinning electric meter?
