I vote to have reflective stripes in our uniforms instead of wearing all the extra gear. I've seen them on AA eagle employees, ugly but effective.

We at NWA used to have reflective stripes on our uniforms, and it didn't stop them from mandating the vests....

 

[Harry Callahan]

I think the vests are here to stay.

 

[JoeDirt]

I don't see what the big deal is about the vest. They are required by the GOM so they should be used. Its like any other piece of equiptment we use daily. Just keep it in your back pocket until needed. I will not park an aircraft without mine or two wing walkers with theirs. Its called CYA.

I would like to Thank the Academy!

Without a Clown like our soon to be X District President this award would not have been possible. He really made this achivement very easy to obtain for me campaigning about him having the worst Leadership, Communication, Representation ,Visibility and Accountability.
Without his failed record we would not be celebrating with the mighty Nelson Award!

Yes indeed Randy made this award happen.

I dont say much on here since I no longer work there but GOOD JOB GUYS. I do think you forgot one phrase. One I know took some jobs. "YOU ARE CONFUSED. YOU NEED TO REVOTE".

 

[JoeDirt]

Dang Don
I wished you had not brought that up. Canale has been looking for a good reason to have a re-vote. We are rampers and being confused is a way of life on the ramp.

 

[necigrad]

Where is Canale anyway? He needs to post the results. Even as a lame duck he still has responsibilities.

NELSON,

that's it tim,

you screwed the pooch on this one. I want a revote. the above quote was not on the ballot

 

[robbedagain]

I guess we will need the US Supreme Court for the revote!!!!!

 

[Tim Nelson]

I guess we will need the US Supreme Court for the revote!!!!!

Discussion:
"Our members were confused". The ALL-Nelson court of confusion realizes that there were many more quotes than the ones listed.

Conclusion: While union Boss bonehead quotes include such goofy quotes as "Our members were angry and we delivered that anger and pain to the company for them to hear", other quotes like the 'confused quote were from district 142.
Therefore, the All-Nelson court of confusion has hereby declared the 'confusion quote' as an invalid vote because it was said to members of 142 and was not a quote associated with 141.

All-Nelson Court of Confusion

Could cheap suites be at the SandCastle kissing the ring and apologizing for losing the
election, therefore the automatic concession stand is now closed and
Parker is pizzed? Or was he spotted consoling the belly warmer ? As many
know the torch was going to be passed in that direction!

Let this be a lesson to all that would not speak up against the cheap suite policy's.
Collateral damage is why your going back to your old jobs and for those
who are up for re-electin in two years do your jobs and start representing
your members, because this historical month will not soon be forgotten.

Actually Tim we were still 141M at the time.
