Hmmm, walk away from your job then whine that you can't file unemployment fast enough and that GWB has a hand in it...... I'm sure the CIA and Special Forces have been monitoring your picket sites...don't see how they couldn't because everyone knows AMFA's all powerful, all knowing...

Who the hell are you?? Your really starting to piss me off. Your not an A&P and you stated you do not work for NWA. Why stir the pot. Don't you have anything else to do on a Saturday night?

Isn't it amazing how everything is always the government’s fault? It's never the individual’s fault that is sitting in the predicament.

"I walked off my job making 3 times the national average and now I can't get unemployment." It’s the government’s fault.

"I'm poor because I dropped out of school and never got a trade." It's the government’s fault.

"I spent all my money on crack and now I can't get out of the way of a hurricane." It’s the government’s fault.

"None of the other hurricanes hit us so we had a party and got drunk instead of evacuating." It's the government’s fault.

"My union, that I pay dues to every month lied to me and convinced me to strike, now I have no money." It’s the government’s fault.

"I knocked a girl up and had to get married and I can't support my family." It's the government’s fault.

"I had a hangover and didn't make my welfare appointment so I didn't get a welfare check this month." It’s the government’s fault.

"I work on airplanes I'm better than any other mechanic in the world. Airlines cant operate without me that’s why I should make more money and if I don't its the governments fault."

Your an insult to the human race

No I'm not, I'm just a realist. I don't believe in political correctness because it clouds the facts.

Play The Odds,

You are one sick cookie. I doubt you're a mechanic. From your postings, I suspect you're a hired scum union buster. Ever read a book by Marty Levitt, I believe the name was. He was a "professional" union buster, hired by corporations to either prevent the election of a union or bust ones in place.

Eventually, poor Marty became an alcoholic. He knew he was scum, taking money to deprive honest working folks a fair shake in the workplace. He finally came to realize the guilt of doing something so grossly evil was eating him alive.

He joined a 12 Step program, one that required total honesty and that one make "amends" to those harmed by his disease. As his "amends" to the working people, he wrote a book exposing the tactics used by companies to beat down the workers.

You seem to be following his play book. Shame on you. It's disgusting.

Eventually life will catch up with you. You will always be alone, except for the management types who will befriend in their schemes but secretly are as disgusted by you as any worker whose livilhood you've damaged.

I hope you get some help soon.

DEA,

Do you think NW would pay someone to help bust NW AMFA and then have this person post to a bunch of AA employees?

Perhaps he is a TWU Consultant out to insure that AMFA isn't elected there next year. It seems that to TWU supporters and AMFA supporters at AA that each of them consider the other lower than a scab.

The only other possibility is he Al Qaeda out to destroy the american way of life.

Hey Scab lover,
Why don't you answer WN Jetfixers Question;

Who the hell are you?? Your really starting to piss me off. Your not an A&P and you stated you do not work for NWA. Why stir the pot. Don't you have anything else to do on a Saturday night?

 

[PlayTheOdds]

You guys are killing me with this identity crises. My position is just what I say it is I am a proud Scab for Northwest. I’m in this hotel waiting to go home. As soon as this is over that is where I will go. I get to take this little Kennedy toolbox with me. Plus an additional 1000 dollars.

If you guys were walking the picket line with the spotlight, you saw me. I really do miss the spot light. Why don’t you guys try a bullhorn so I can hear you?

 

[PlayTheOdds]

OH-Yea thats right, GAME OVER!!! Do you guys plan on walking the picket line still?

You know I actually figured out a way to beat these company's and this is how you do it, first the members act tough like they are going to strike if they don't get what they want this hopefully drives the stock price way down, like it did at AA, NWA,Cal, etc. then you invest alot of money in the stock i'm talking alot of money over 20,000 then the members vote in the concession whatever it may be cause the company is gonna get it anyway, once all the concessions are voted in the stock shoots way up to 3 time what you bought it at or more at AA it was 10 times what it's 52 week low was this happens within 2 months and bingo you can make up to 10 times your 20,000 or more that comes to 200,000 dollars for a 20,000 dollar investment at AA ,we lost about 12,000 a year for 6 years that comes to 72,000 you still come out ahead by 128,000 you win.
there is more than 1 way to beat these Airlines you just have to think outside of the box, If Northwest does not go to bankruptcy as I think they probably won't( but Katrina and the high gas is hurting the Airlines pretty bad so they might) but if they don't then I think their stock will go back to 12.00 a share in a few monthes it is around 3.00 now, the AMFA Mechanics could buy a bunch of stock and then vote for the contract they could make 4 times their money in just a couple of months which could more than make up for their wage concession, look at what happened to the other Airlines stock when they signed their concessions this will work, you come out with alot of money and you still have a job to boot, The Pilots do this all the time that is why they take stock options when they vote for concessions, if you can think outside of the box, you can win even during a bad situation, another example, everyone complains about how they hate the high gas prices, everyone except the people who own oil stock they like high gas prices as it makes them money, you too could own that oil stock, then you would not hate those high gas prices, think outside of the box and you can go far.

Just my little tip for the day, most people cannot think outside of the box but for the few who can there are $$$$$$$ to be had.

This is something to think about cause we all know there really are not alot of high paying jobs out there, and if you don't have alot of education you probably will not be one of the guys getting the ones that are out there.
There is alot of competition in the real world many of us have been working for an Airline for a very long time and have forgotten this but reality has a way of biting you on the but when your out of work.

I do wish all the Northwest Mechanics the best of luck in whatever decision you make , I would make sure that whatever decision you make is yours and not someone elses cause you and your family are the ones who are gonna have to live with it, you can't blame the majority for whatever happens to you cause it really is your decision alone.

Think outside the box 😉

I'm not into calling people names, and I won't start here. Skilled tradespeople in the northeast are making over $35 an hour. The second rate outfits at the airport are breaking $18-$20 to start. The LCC's are paying in the upper $20's. Why on earth would anyone sign up with an outfit that obviously will have no problem contracting out everything within the near future? We are hiring off the street with top pay over $28 an hour and we are having trouble attracting qualified people and we aren't even a+p's. You guys are selling your souls for chump change.

If that is really the case then why not tell all these out of work Mechanics where you work so they can come there and make alot of money to ?

I suspect it is not true. <_<
