Grassroots Efforts at DL for ACS and FAs, no personal attacks.

Divine intervention !

This will go down as the biggest embarrassment a union has ever put upon the activists. To trust them again would be fool hardy. A huge monumental waste of everyone's money, time and energy.

Exactly! How in the world could you work on the ramp, knowing the IAM wants the money in your wallet, see this happen on the FA side and still believe you can trust them?

 

[southwind]

How many elections have the FAs had now? 
 
have the margin of loss for the union ever gotten smaller? Seems like, even in the 90s pre9/11, every time a union has tried they get closer and closer. Not sure why you think that is going to change? (Plenty of reasons for new hires to want a union, plenty of reasons for them not to want also though)

Yep! At this rate, a union should be voted in by 2115, if there are any left by then.
Again, the union is all smoke and mirrors...."We have a bazillion cards signed, don't be left out and chastised by your fellow employees, sign a card today!" When , in all reality, they're lucky if they have half the cards "actually sign by legitimate employees", they say they do!

Like i said in another thread, only one left is the IBT. 
 
TWU, AFA, IAM have all been rejected once, AFA seems like its been 17 times over my career. 
 
sad thing is, if I were to join a non-inhouse as a FA it would be the AFA. Wouldn't touch the rest.

One of my good sisters request that I post this for her. She is under surveillance at her base and would like to keep low. What does that say?
Anyway, it is time to step up the pressure. Let's ‪#‎rightthewrong‬https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/rightthewrong?source=feed_text&story_id=10153053996655888.
Dear Mr. President/Senator/Congressperson.
 
I am a Delta Air Lines flight Attendant and I need your assistance. I plead for help and justice.
I would like to strongly request that you continue to look into the grave injustice that was served upon the Delta Flight Attendants this past April 2015 when NMB referred to the DOJ the allegations of misconduct in the IAM/Delta request for a vote for representation for their FAs. My federally protected right to be heard, has been silenced.
 

( George McTigue started this petition 3 mths ago, April 2015 at change.org #rightthewrong )
 
"A credible, trustworthy voting process is one of the fundamental building blocks of any democratic society. Delta Flight Attendants have been recently denied an opportunity to vote on whether or not they wanted union representation, because of allegations that an unknown person or persons submitted questionable authorization cards to the National Mediation Board (NMB). (The National Mediation Board is the government body that administers the election process for airline and railroad employees). The NMB has now referred the matter to the Department of Justice for its review.
 
We ask that the Department of Justice and the NMB act responsibly and expeditiously to resolve these charges and to allow Delta Flight Attendants to have the vote they rightfully deserve. We also ask that the process be adjusted to guarantee that future unionizing efforts will be credible, trustworthy and tamper-proof.
 
Finally, we ask that the NMB mandate that Employers be required to provide Employee signature samples that are recent and not subject to rejection for matters such as name changes or variations by the Employee in how they sign their otherwise valid signature to an authorization card document.
 
American workers deserve a fair and trustworthy voting process! "
 
My voice has been SILENCED!

What a crock. This thread should be locked. This is  just propaganda . I got the request from my good brothers  who asked me to have this tread locked.

There is a name on it- it's right there in the paragraph 700 posted.

That petition was started at Change.Org by one of our coworkers.

 

[southwind]

Guess theyll be eating crow when this employee finds out the IAM was at fault!

 

[Kev3188]

Since you seem so excited for that to happen, how about agreeing with me that the DOJ needs to start their investigation post haste?
