RALLY! IN PHOENIX!

[bagchucker]

Any word leaking out on how the T.A. negotiations are going this week??

I see it funny that IAM added a briefing on their website about how a "worker coalition" has been formed to "warn" the company... that doesn't sound too encouraging in reference to negotiations, does it now? Its nice that the labor force of this company as a whole is stepping up the pressure towards this inept group of corporate staff we have... but... is it too little too late? Is the bark going to be followed through with a bite? If the numbers game shows us sucking in every category, just think how bad it can get if every one slows it down a couple more notches... should be interesting.

Hey bag hugger , the rally went as well as they normally do , we had a fair turnout even though we didn’t do a stellar job of spreading the word ..It was nice to see the unity .

 

[bagchucker]

Hey Free

Glad it went alright... sounds like it could and should become a regular thing... as the momentum grows and the frequency increases, the UNITY will grow. It is high time this work group stand up and denounce the unfair treatment we receive. WE have no more patience. The company and the IAM need to get this message NOW. Keep it up!!

Sweet! Lemme guess...1/4 of the AM shift came out on the ramp... how many came out on the PM? Or did you not hold one on the PM shift? Great solidarity if you ask me. Maybe that's because last time a "rally" was held between the low A concourse and the high A concourse a grand total of nine disgruntled employees came out and stood on the kilo line for about 10 minutes until they realized they looked ridiculous.


Face it, we need to get rid of the "I'll Ask Management" union before anything is going to happen.

Hey! Lighten up! The truth is we heard from some source of the union that the company did present a deal. That was one hour after the rally. Then we heard the union has countered. This of course had nothing to do with the rally (although anyone would've liked to think so), but it's got Phoenix fired up. That' why we want to keep you in touch.
I might add we shot an email to Al Bromitis and he said they will announce it when ready.
Video is only if this drags for too long! Again, can someone recite how many TA' east had and did not get to vote for or against?

what dont we have another rally to make sure we are all on the same page! Make sure that more people know so it is even bigger!

Maybe even have a huge rally out side the sand box

We will follow up with VIDEO! We never believed we work have to resort to anything to help the process. We thought we could count on our HIGHER UPS' to help. But! Unfortunately! everyone in charge has NO CLOUT! Why are we paying anyone to be incharge when only DOUG PARKER and SCOTT KIRBY run this company. Who the H### do they think they are! ALSO! I will implicate their lawyers. And I would bet it starts with a Mr. Hemenway (Who the H### does he think he is!). Who really cares if we spell his name wrong.

Hemenway is not a laywer, he worked for PSA and worked his way up the ladder at US.

 

[awausairtech]

And kicked the usair unions a$$...... right 700, with help of the judge"s!!!!!!!

 

[700UW]

Like I said, I have a copy of the IAM's proposal to the company.

The Judge abrogated the contract, that is fact.

The Membership ratified the final offer, that is fact.

Dont let the facts get in your way!

There is no need for words! Action will help US Airways move ahead of the competition. Phoenix is truly in the "Lime Light" this week!

I had a long conversation with that gentleman today. His passion is admirable, and his actions speak volumes. I wish we had more like him...
