O.k., Ken. You have had your say, and I know you want us out of the TWU, so what's next? Your buddy hackman, noted that amfa caused NW to piss-away $108 million dollars and he is proud of it. I don't know about you. But if that was a company I was working for I would like to get my hands on it instead of pissing it away, and gloating about it! That's just plain stupid! What the hell do we do Ken? You tell us what it is to gain for getting out of the working together process."We the members of a union. The TWU. Have suffered cuts and bruises. But in the end, our resolve will have its rewards."
Cuts and bruises? Members of a union? Resolve?
First: Cuts and bruises will heal over time. What we suffered was the loss of a limb while we were laughed at. Did ANY of your twu international APPOINTED officers suffer any "cuts and bruises"? (Didn't think so.)
Second: Members of a union? Do you mean an INDUSTRIAL union that will not allow a representational election amongst their AMTs or a craft union for AMTs? A union where ALL, local & international officers, are elected by the membership or a union that APPOINTS international officers. (Int. officers who by the way DO NOT receive pay & benefit reductions when the membership does.)
Third: Resolve? Do not confuse resolve with the actions of an extension of human resources. The twu will do what ever the company says it wants. Representational election? OKAY! We will just add a list of dead people to the eligibility list. Concessions? OKAY! We'll just accept the concessions because the international owns/controld the contract. Executive bonuses? OKAY! We will just maybe write a letter and pretend we are angry.
Once again, hss shows his ignorance and cowardice. PRICELESS!
I want the company I work for to have a strong financial foundation, and to have the ability to have those who represent me to know the properties of that foundation. So when the time comes to split up the pie, we get the slice with the cherry on top.....
What is your plan Ken...?
