Nice article:

"In the past, [managers] would come and say, 'This is how we're going to do it,'" he says. "The mechanics would say it wouldn't work, and six months later, they would say, 'We told you so.'

Some things never change on the line. It's still their way or the highway.

Some things never change on the line. It's still their way or the highway.

They don't change at AFW either. The company is just putting a new twist in the game. Part of the problem at AFW is the man mentioned in the article and the other incompetent management. They are spinning up the propaganda machine and the newspapers,public and alot of employees that have there head in the sand are believing there lies. After 2003 you would think that these people would learn not to trust anything that AA or the twu has to say. After the dust settles in a few years and KC and AFW are gone or spun off and our pentions are gone maybe people will wake up,but then it will be to late. Oh and by the way I am hearing that you have to have at least 86 seniority to get one of the CC bids at DFW. So I'm sure there are going to be alot of disappointed AFW people.
