NH/BB,

'Cods did PM and state he would like to go but he is soon leaving his scab career at NWA. He stated it will be close time wise.

I will stand by for a "big disappointment".... 🙄

Well, it is true PTO will be gone, almost all the contractors will be gone by the end of the month, I know how the truth hurts you guys. I however will not be gone and I am considering attending this little pep rally; however an entire room full of yippeee amfa nuts just isnt my idea of an enlightening evening.

Personally I'd be a bit nervous. They (the former NWA folks) do not seem to be all that stable. If I were PTO, I'd stay miles away from these loons. Much safer.

You know what rings hollow you NWA management POS? YOUR SCAB AIRLINE IS TANKING....DEAD LAST Hopefully NWA's slide to Chapter 7 will be quickly forthcoming with another huge loss in the 4th quarter, and you and your punk management friends will soon be on the street also. The MSP "Hometown Airline" will be Suncountry, in fact it already is to many.

I'm sure the remaining employees thank you for that wish that they will be all out of jobs <_<

 

[Hackman]

Well not all employees, some where forced into a horrible situation. NWA management brought this ill will upon themselves with its rogue and unwarranted actions. If your in the blame game, start with Dougie Stealin' and go down the ladder.

In that case you want to picket the shareholders. They are the ones that management are accountable to, so long as the management are seen to be 'turning things around' they have free reign to do what they want from the shareholders.

Well I'm sure the plan was hatched by Dougie and friends, who then sold the demented plan to the BOD, and big dollar NWA shareholders. Did Dougie lie and predict the plan was, as he stated to the press, "flawless"? It doesn't look like the assault on its employees is going too well, the airline is last in performance and customer satisfaction. The pilots, F/A's, and rampers aren't exactly happy campers, which keeps many fliers away, even with cheap tickets NWA is promoting.

More massive losses are predicted in the 4th quarter for NWA. Will Chapter 7 Liquidation be Dougie Stealin's sad legacy for NWA? Kind of seems like it, but he and his band of criminals will walk away with millions regardless. :down: :angry: :down: :angry:

 

[Hackman]

Well, as I expected, PlaytheCods is mum on if he's showing at the rally or not to proclaim his scab beliefs to all, as I expected.

How is it to be living a life where you have to be looking over your shoulder at all times. To require hired goon protection because you are such a low life, it really must be some kind of hollow existance.

Such is the life of growing number of today's corporate "elite" and the "errand boys" like 'Cods who think the more they bootlick and suck-up, the safer the are. What fools.

Yeah,those shareholders are really making out, now that NWA stock is worthless.

 

[PlayTheOdds]

Princess, Hackman is unfortunately unable to join me. Providing I went would you be willing to join me?

 

[PlayTheOdds]

My vote has been cast, how many of you guys will I see there? How many of the 24 people that voted here will attend and show their support for their union brothers? How many of the amfa strikers will show up there, to show their support for their failed union. Does anyone else find it strange that the Auto Workers Union will also be there? If they are going to be there why isn't the other aviation unions going to be there?

I guess you could say that I am about to venture behind enemy lines, I will report back later tonight. MY ADVENTURE BEGINS.

What an interesting Rally. Your rumor was right Hackman Dell was indeed there. He wasn't what I expected but he was there and gave a pretty good speech. Bob Rose was there also, I even had a short little chit-chat while he was taking a smoke break. He smokes Marlboro Lights by the way and doesn't care much for the winter. Once Deer Season is over with he could care less for winter. I shook the mans hand and enquired what they really new about Arizona. I was really impressed with the turnout until one of the speakers asked all the AMFA members to stand up. Between 25 and 30% of the room stood up, the rest were the Auto Workers. It was still a good Rally until they had this squirrelly Flight Attendant take the podium, he just blew it for me with his lies and propaganda. I bit my tongue though. There was a senator there also who gave a pretty impressive speech but they all do now don't they. He said the very same thing I have been telling you guys, "The unions have got to unite." He is absolutely correct for if they do not they will be picked off one at a time in very short order. There was also a singer there singing her union propaganda songs to the beat of Pretty Woman and The YMCA, there were a couple of others also. I was really surprised at the number of white people, there were some blacks as well but the shear number of whites was way out of balance. Are unions biased as far as race goes? The only other time I recall seeing such an imbalance is at my kids private school. I sorry I didn't take the stand as requested Hackman but I just don't think that would have gone over very well there. I do appreciate the challenge though for it was a very enlightening experience. I would have never even known about much less attended with out such a challenge. Honestly you have my deepest regrets that you couldn't attend and I fully understand your reason. I can't say that much for the Princess though. There was a little island of landscaping just outside the front door of the convention center, I wrote "PTO" in the snow. It was very much obvious with the lighting. You couldn't help but see it when you came out of the door. All in all a very fine evening.

You guys really need to come up with some different slogans though.

Oh yea, There was a 50/50 drawing also, I bought five tickets then the woman told me to fill them out. They wanted my name and address so I took her pen and went and sat down at a table to fill them out, when she was busy I just wadded them up and stuck them in my pocket. I've never had a five-dollar Bic pen before. I also bought five buttons for tha AMFA strike support fund.

One would think that you guys never had a beer with the way you guys slam people who drink beer. There wasn't a table there without a few beer bottles on them.

Anyway I did have a very good time and it was nice to get out on the town for a while.
