Word is the Company has rescinded its attempt to squeeze through a two year pay freeze, looks like they are going to use the system to get their two year extension.

It's almost comical the way that was done - "Time Sensitive".

Are we sure Arpey didn't hire Carty back or is he really that stupid?
 
Dunno if I call it being stupid or just being consistent... When AA has hinted at hard timelines, they've usually been for cause...

Consistent - now, that's a word that few believe is a part of Arpey's vocabulary.

One of the best bosses I ever had was an absolute SOB, every day, every hour and minute - there was no doubt with this guy. He wouldn't lie to anyone, to the point of being painful and insensitive. He was one of the best bosses I ever had - when he finally got it through his thick head I was going to tolerate his crap (and smile at him) regardless of whether he liked it or not, we started getting along fine, and he's still one I call a friend 30 years later. He's also still a SOB.

With Arpey and minions, all that's for certain is their lines have been rehearsed for maximum (they believe) effect and more often than not bear little resemblance to anyone's concept of the truth - strictly the company line with a "let's hose the workers" attitude with the board's blessings (best example - the "Bring Me My Fool" cartoons).

You're right - Arpey is consistent, and occasionally downright entertaining.
 
"Time sensitive"?

I've been time sensitive since we took the concessions. That's 5 years of sensitivness I've endured. His time frame is up? Well, guess what? My time frame is up too!

FULL RETURN OF WHAT I GAVE UP IN CONCESSIONS PLUS ADJUSTMENTS FOR INFLATION AND A RAISE. Anything else gets a big fat NO VOTE!

ARE YOU LISTENING TWU?

Maybe we'll actually get a vote next time...

As long as it's not crap that we're voting on. It's a good thing they didn't bring back the POS the compAAny wanted. The morons here in TUL would've voted yes!!! 😱

And you should vote yes. I know we're all weary of hearing about fuel costs, but the reality is that AA has already paid something like $3 billion more in fuel costs since the start of the year. Is there anything left to go around?

And the execs have put several hundred millions of dollars in their pockets. They can take their contract extension and extend it up their you know what!!!!!!!!

Seems like there is plenty of stock to piss away. Give me 58 thousand shares and I will vote yes.

Until then FURP :angry:

We've given enough, maybe they should just up the bag charge to $20. Thats still cheaper than Fed Ex or the USPS.

Remember Little Jimmy - he went to court in 2003 to have it affirmed he has the right as prez to accept a contract on our behalf (as he did after Carty's shenanigans came to light and we wanted a re-vote) after the first vote by the rank and file.
