BREAKING NEWS: US Airways Election Dates Announced!

Reagan, shifano and others are fighting for their jobs and the iampf. Letters, phone calls, and fairy tales dont hold up. But i will keep that letter and show it to folks at continental and elsewhere and show them the political mess this fund can get people in
 
Josh
I keep asking 700, why. He refuses to talk about the contract or iampf and instead talks about conference calls, letters, and other non binding items.
 
How many times do you have to be told, you have to be an IAM member to be in the plan or in a coordinated bargaining unit.

The CBA language means nothing if the plan wont accept the money.

I have posted the letter from the plan, guess you cant read and comprehend.

Also shown you a case where the court even ruled the on an issue where it stated a union and another union took over and the language didnt apply.

Also I guess you know more than the people who negotiated the language, enforce the language and run the plan.

Hey how was your cruise during the last week of the UA/IBT vote on the ramp?

Guess you didnt care since it was only seven votes away from a runoff/rerun.
 
Thanks for a good laugh. Those videos are opinions, meaning feelings and one mans experience with the IAM.

Josh
I will remember this post and use it all the time when you quote Tim, he is just one man's experience with the IAM yet you praise it as the all mighty truth and gospel.

All bs.
The plan does accept non members. Read the plan. The iampf is totally separate from the iam so im not sure what in the world u r talking about. The only legal way that these members can be removed from the plan is if the trustees dont want them. If that is the case then there would have to be a loa signed.
Steves letter was carefully written and it is accurate what he said,ie, a company that is not obligated.
Usairways is obligated. The contract speaks for itself.
700, isnt the iampf separate from the iam? The mx contract does not give the company an out or alternative like the fleet contract.

No the language said IBT the PFAA took over, so now if the IBT is the bargaining agent the CBA say IAM.

Because in the Alliance Agreement it spells out the plan will offer it to the TWU represented employees as it is a coordinated bargaining unit.

I all ready showed you an example with NW and the PFAA.

Are you that pig-headed you cant admit you are wrong?

I mean you know more then the plan trustees, Tom Regan, Tom Buffenbarger and Frank Shifano?

Give it a rest you dont know it all.
I wonder if Tommy Mayfield would like seeing that letter float around his neck of the woods. I'm sure ole Ford and Harrison will copy that letter and scatter it abroad. And if the IAM actually came through and wiped out the mx, that would effectively be the end of any remaining IAM organizing drive anywhere. I don't see any way that the IAM destroys that pension for the mechanics if they vote the IAM out. The IAMPF is totally separate from the IAM so any action against the members would kill the IAM everywhere else. regards,

If the IAM loses the election they will no longer be IAM members and participants in the plan.

The NW/IBT CBA also had dues check off, when the PFAA NW and Gerry Glass refused to take dues out of the Flight Attendants paychecks and turn it over to the PFAA. The DCO was in the CBA.

PFAA took on NW and lost as the language said IBT and not PFAA.

And here is a copy of the lawsuit where the PFAA lost in court.

Yes. Accordinv to 700, this is a very unique raid and if the ibt won then no union dues will come our.
I never stated anything about union dues not coming out if the ibt wins, why are you lying again tim?

I posted a case about NW when they went PFAA and I should you where the CBA stated the IBT in the DCO and Glass refused to take dues out and pass them on to the PFAA, and how the PFAA sued and lost.

Buy any gift cards to buy A-Cards lately?

At last you posted a truth!!! No you didn't post that union dues would stop if IBT was voted in. I did.

As per your beloved lawsuit and the USAirways and IAM CBA language not only would USAirways stop taking dues out they would be REQUIRED to. They do not have an option. It is a catch 22 the IAM won't mention it because it will guarantee an election loss (wakeup it is already lost) and IBT won't mention it they hope to work a backdoor deal with the company. Do I hear a lawsuit??

You notice how the the banned Lavman refuses to address me LOL. He is afraid because he knows I know the truth about him.
