Baba,
This is a free an open forum, if you dont like what a poster has to say then dont read it or use the ignore feature.
Anyone is free to post about unions and their opinions, you parrot DL's Third Party Maintained anti-union campaign, which DL is paying Ford and Harrison over $10 million to fight you and your coworkers having a say in the workplace and a CBA which protects you and them.
Yet you dont even do any research on what F&H posts and you repeat.
Ask the people that were there and lived it, you believe the anti-union venom DL puts out from Ford and Harrison.
Do you realize the IAM at TW had an agreement with the APFA on seniority and they reneged?
Do you know the IAM spent over $6 million on fighting for the former TW FAs even after they werent IAM members?
Do you know the Pilots got stapled also and the ramp and maintenance went to arbitration and its called the Kasher decision, read it and educate yourself on it.
Do you know that AA made EVERY union at TW waive their LPPs in bankruptcy or AA wouldnt have acquired TW and TW would have gone out of business?
Ask Kevin about NW and Chapter 11, NW wanted to contract out almost everything, if the IAM was so bad, how come they brought over 40 NW ramp staffed stations to the merger and DL only brought 14?
For a change, stop believing the rhetoric and look up the facts.
So what if DL spent that $10+ million on improving your pay, working conditions, and benefits, instead of fighting the FAs who want to be in a union?
Here is something poised to the NoWay Crowd:
would like the No Wayers to please give a convincing argument to why the status quo should continue. I'm not a fence sitter but I'm also not baiting you. Your arguments to date have focused on your dislike of unions, the IAM in particular. I want to know why I or rather a fence sitter should be content with 3 or 4% yearly unguaranteed pay increases ( keeping in mind that we are still not at pre-bankruptcy levels). Nice profit sharing, but the same percentage that ALPA represented pilots get. Those small pay increases very much eaten up by yearly increases in our health insurance. Again, I just want to hear your arguments in a respectful, thoughtful way. Thank you
