Scabs go home. You defeat the purpose of the strike. You ruin the profession. You take people's jobs and careers away. Scabs will not be welcome at any unionised airline, their pictures are everywhere. :down: :angry: :down: :angry:

Yea that will work. Ask them to leave. You have a great sense of humor.
My guess is they have no interest in working for an airline much less any union. That's why they do contract work and that's why they are replacing you until permanent workers can be found or until your work is out sourced.

Speaking of "a sense of humor", as we approach OCTOBER, that means that the "FLU" season will be upon the F/A's, ESPECIALLY from the 4th thursday in November until the 2nd of January 2006.
They say THIS years "strain" will hit exceptionally HARD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is about as effective as AMFA's strategy.

Or the American front end crew's strategy. What did that end up costing ALPA?
If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make any noise? If the AMFA exists without any employed mechanics, is it a union?

Do you mean the APA?
ALPA does not represent anyone at AA.
As far as the fine the Judge put on the APA it became part of the concessions package in 2003, the company gave up the claim in order to get concessions from the pilots.
That, plus the fact they already got back over 10% explains why many, but not all, of the pilots are pretty happy. Some actually get mad when they are told by mechanics to "put it in the book". I was told (by the mechanic involved) that one actually wrote a letter complaining about a mechanic who would not work off a napkin. From what I hear there is a lot of that going on at NWA. (Pilots not properly documenting discrepancies that is.)

And you know this how QWERTY? Do you have a law degree and are a sitting judge on the bankruptcy court or are you just assuming this? Just because a judge removes the contract in BK doesnt mean the union has to accept it.
With no contract, NW doesn't need a sick out to fire you, any reason will do. Your employment is at the will, i.e. the sole discretion of your employer.
The FA's are making threats to act before abrogation, and because a bankruptcy judge (especially a New York judge) will not tolerate a vendor failing to live up to a valid agreement, you are really rolling the dice. At that point he/she'll probably throw you in jail.
AFTER abrogation you can do whatever you want, and frankly I'd like to see that. Maybe since the AFMA did so well you'll get everything you want.

To whom are you speaking?
You do know that it is considered impolite to not address your audience.
I do not see an official from the PFAA making any statements, do you?
I doubt that any of the posters here are from the PFAA.
Keep your intimidation tacticts in your own small mind (if there is room).

I was replying to the poster who's post immediately preceeded my response. And explain where in my post I am wrong.
Should you not be out holding a sign and pacing in front of somebody's house or taking pictures of mechanics that have the sense enough to go back to work?

Yeah, they are going to throw you in jail for calling in sick. O.K. Reichminister. These jobs are going to erode to the point that even the contract janitor wouldn't do it. We have openings all over the system that can't be filled now, seems people want a sense of a job thats going somewhere. We just hired an AMFA mechanic and we will hire more. And someday this place will turn around.
