While the TWU promotes the Frontline BK video, the APA says bring it on. What's wrong with this picture?

Interesting and scary all in one.

Another good question would be, is AA ready for a new mangement team?

And so what is the deal with the dispute over $17,000.00 worth of vegatables anyway?

Please Pay For Your Veggies

Just keeps getting better.

Is this a private produce stash hiding under the name of AA training?
Not only is the total only $17,000.00, if you look on the Exhibit B receipts, the quanities of each produce order is very low if you are supplying produce for an airline. It looks more like a regular grocery store purchase.

The delivery address is the training center - isn't there a restaurant there? It looks like salad bar/continental breakfast/etc produce quantities.

Surely one of you management defenders can get a vaild answer.
Asking another question is no longer adequate management defense.

Yep, there's dining facilities there:

You work for AA, don't you know that when AA isn't using it, it's rented out like any other hotel with conference space?

Assuming that I'm a "management defender," what does a $17k produce bill for veggies delivered to a hotel owned by AA but managed by Dolce have to do with management? Or "defending management"?

Do you want AA to pay bills that the bankruptcy code says it may not have to pay?

Since you're a management hater, have you considered self-employment? That way, management won't screw up your future, since you'd then be "management" as well as "labor." One would hope that labor-management relations at that business would be very cooperative. :D

I'm guessing it was the DFW employee cafeteria system?

Something that both the underlings and the uber - employees can have access to.

It seems that you and many others on the American Airlines thread are surprised when some, including me show little trust in anything the company and in many cases the TWU does?
 
The TWU Brother and Sisters of Local 100 are showing the solidarity we need.

Special Action at Mass Membership Meeting
Local 100 Pledges Support

For TWU Members at American Airlines and American Eagle

AMR Corporation, the parent company of both American Airlines and its regional carrier, American Eagle filed for bankruptcy in lower Manhattan on Nov. 28, 2011. Those two carriers employ well over 20,000 TWU airline division members across America in Fleet Service, Maintenance, Cabin Cleaning, Stores, Flight Dispatch, Meteorology and more. Other airlines have used bankruptcy proceedings to decimate collective bargaining agreements, destroy pension and health plans, and slash union jobs especially in overhaul maintenance. Local 100 members took time at the union’s Dec. 3rd mass membership meeting to recognize this threat to our Brothers and Sisters at American and American Eagle by unanimously endorsing a resolution of support. Prior to presenting the resolution, Local 100 President John Samuelsen said that the bankruptcy filing “is an enormous
challenge for our entire TWU International union. It is crucial that we as an organization pull together in a truly unified fashion to meet this attack on TWU members at American and American Eagle.” Following is the text of that resolution. It was unanimously endorsed at both the A.M. and P.M. membership meetings on Dec. 3, 2011. Resolution in Support of Our Brothers and Sisters At American Airlines and American Eagle TWU Local 100 Mass Membership Meeting Dec. 3, 2011

WHEREAS, AMR, the parent company of American Airlines and American Eagle, that employs thousands of TWU members throughout America, has declared bankruptcy, and

WHEREAS, such bankruptcy filing endangers the jobs, contracts, pensions and health benefits of these workers and retirees and thousands of others employed by American and American Eagle, and

WHEREAS, all unionized employees at American, including TWU members, the Pilots and Flight Attendants, agreed to significant cost savings agreements to keep the carrier out of bankruptcy in recent years, and

WHEREAS, TWU has been bargaining in good faith with American for successor agreements for several years without success,
now therefore be it RESOLVED, that the 38,000 members of TWU Local 100 offer our full support to International President
James C. Little and the leadership teams of all American Airlines and American Eagle Locals in this crucial battle for the families of so many thousands of TWU members at these carriers, and be it further RESOLVED, that TWU Local 100 offers the full resources of the Local union in this campaign, and be it further RESOLVED, that TWU Local 100 will open its offices in midtown Manhattan for meetings, caucuses, planning sessions or whatever else is requested by our International Union while this battle is being waged at Bankruptcy Court here in New York, and be it finally RESOLVED, that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to International President James C. Little, Air Transport Division Director Garry Drummond, and the officers of all American Airlines and American Eagle/TWU Locals and that a copy of this resolution be posted on the TWU Local 100 website and printed in the TWU Local 100 Transport Workers Bulletin.
 
Is there any truth to the rumor that 7 pilots had taken their own lives over the bankruptcy and the loss of their pension?
