To Randy Canale,
although the network of solidarity has serious disagreements with you and Roth over worker issues, I trust that we agree that we should all support Roth back to work with full back pay BEFORE we even think of negotiating with this company.

Regardless, if we agree or disagree with our negotiators, our negotiators are in a sacred position not to be screwed with by the company. A suspension of one of them is a suspension of all. Randy, stop kissing the pinky of Al, stand behind your own, the network of solidarity would be with you on this if you ceased negotiations until the company recognizes not to screw with our negotiators. Until then, our members should get more angry and screw transition, screw investors, screw merger, everything screw. Let's get this done.

Who will be next. A few on the neg committee could be in the same situation as only the AGCs' are not at the stations doing fleet work, when not on the committee. Seems the only mistake made was that the printed Co. info was posted in the wrong place. After all, it was from the " Company Policy and
Procedures " on safety. Nate Gushi, where are You? Ron needs ur imput yesterday.......

It amuses me that the discussion of the "New Direction Team" has been on this forum for quite some while but only in the past week or so has "Team 2008" started with newbies such as "The Shocker" and "District Force". This only leads me to believe that they are desperate at this point to get votes for Canale and his slate of followers. They are seeking the votes of someone who might be riding the fence. If you are on this fence, please look at what has happened to the members under his regime. Yes, the airline industry changed with 9/11 but has rebounded back to the point of millions of profits. Yet they bring us another concessionary contract , yes I know that there was a small pay raise..more for our west guys...but look at everything you would be giving up for a short term cure to cash flow.

Can the New Direction Team bring us everything that we want in a short period of time? I doubt that anything will happen quick but we will know that they won't present us with another contract that they know we will vote down or try to have shoved up our a%%%s.

Remember that we are all in this together ...East and West.. and we deserve what we are worth to this company as well as every other labor group that has bleed with us. It is time to get all the Canale's out of every union and stand up to the MBA'S playing in the sandbox in Tempe.

Hey... Blue... I'm with you!

Tim,

Totally agree. If the company feels that they can suspend a union negotiator on a whim, they won't think twice about doing the same to us "common folk". They need to know that they can't push us around as if it were post 9-11 like we are begging on hands and knees to keep a job. The airline's financial position is strong and they need to know that this union is stronger than it ever was. If they are going to repremand our people than we need to give it back twice as hard. We should stand together and be as one and show them that their sheep we are not. STOP ALL NEGOTIATIONS AND WORK SAFE IN ALL STATIONS UNTIL THEY BRING ROTH BACK!!!!!

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH :angry:
