It seems we have on these boards posters who qualify for the human
behavior phenomenon called Stockholm Syndrome. This is where people that are held hostage as for example on flight 847 say things like this: ``They weren't bad people. They let me eat, they let me sleep, they gave me my life''
I am not making light of the facts, of the reality of our situation, because it’s real alright. I am pointing out how a few posters behave this way regardless of the wrongs that have been and are being done to the good U employees.
Right now in Pit hangers we have what is known as a crack down. This is where management decides based on some little spark of misguided truth that abuse is awash among the employees. Everyone knows that times are tough, uncertainty runs high, emotions are rubbed raw, employees are living on the edge yet we have management taking actions like we see in the Pit hangers. These actions do absolutely nothing to promote goodwill between management and labor. They decide to take these kinds of actions at a time when management wants more concessions, more work rule changes, more of our collective heads. One can only assume these actions are being done with the blessings of upper management with the hopes that the end results will be a softened work force who will bend to the never ending demands of more and more concessions. There is more than enough stress to go around and then some; yet these kinds of actions are not only allowed, but are apparently sanctioned by top management. So I say let it be known loud and clear what kind of management we have in place. I remember clearly when Dave S was on the floor preaching that employee abuse and bad managers would not be tolerated but fired. There are certain foreman in the hangers that are known dissension makers with their tactics of abuse of employees over frivolous issues. What happened to the comments by Dave and his promise that this would not occur, is this just another broken promise?
Does this management team believe that they can make us all into victims and we will become one big Stockholm Syndrome so they can have their way with us? Actions speak louder than words and their actions are screaming.
