Amfa Members

CIO, Are you brain dead or just plain stupid? How did anyone as stupid as you pass the AMT exams? How much did you pay the "crooked" DME? The mechanics in this industry are losers, because of the EVIL TWU,the IAM, and YES voting scabs like you!

AMFA and the IAM can withhold their services immediately. They can quit. The judge isn't forcing you to stay. Then we can bring on people that actually want to be here and not a bunch of people that want to destroy a company.

How about destroying the industry? Finally nice to see a union at UAL with some backbone. The pilots are NO help as they have demonstrated they'll fly for about anything.

Way to go mechanics!!!! The pilots at NWA most definitely know, as you do, when to say 'enough is enough' to management.

cheers

Amfa leaders negotiated a golden parachute equal to 1 million dollars. When the members rejected the terms and Amfa lost the money.

With the 4 month delay, United has no reason to negotiate. The terms of the cost reductions have been met. If anything comes out of the negotiations, you will see the attempts of Amfa to insert the 1 million back in. Amfa has yet to settle a contract in negotiations since 2001. Their lack of abilities are obvious.

As it was said earlier, the prime opportunity to make a point would have been the same day the judge imposed the pay reduction. With Approx. 47% of the members not voting, United would have achieved their goals of reducing head count immediately.

Amfa is between a rock and a hard spot, no confidence from its members and unable to negotiate during the down turns in the industry. I fear the mechanics thru-out the Airline Industry are the ultimate lossers.

CIO,
AMFA represented their Members by allowing them to decide the vote without interference from the International. Your AA/TWU affiliation doesn't allow what the AMFA/UAL Members already have: Democracy.

Individuals like you fear the very act of a free unvarnished vote because it may actually force the TWU, the TWU flunkys' and the AFL-CIO to take a stand. You and I both know that there are enough "TWU Members" that hate the TWU to the degree that such a stand would quickly crumble.

You come to the UAL board, pathetically screaming that AMFA/UAL recieved compensation for the costs incurred during negotiations. Would you care to talk about the financial position of several AA/TWU locals if AA ever called in all of their markers?

Ah yes the documented $3.1 million that AA gives the TWU to conduct "union Business". Lets not forget that Bobby Gless admitted under oath that he continued getting a paycheck from American Airlines while he was negotiating and promoting concessions for the members. Hmmm, conflict of interest dont you think?

Whats amazing is that if the AA is in such bad shape how come they stil continue this costly,if not illegal, practice?
