the great power grab

Kev,

Why would he notice?

You know his post was just another lame attempt to slam and discredit the IAM, he has to take another thread off topic.

And he sitll hasnt said how ancillary work performed by fleet took down AMFA and its mechanics at NW.

What your International is doing is fueling the loss of the M&R to another union, they cant be that stupid to believe their moves wont cause that.

Some of our members are that _____ .
They believe anything the TWU tells them.
There are a number of members that support the teamsters.
There are a number of members that support the AMFA.
Then you have the TWU koolaid drinkers.
The one thing that EVERYBODY needs to understand is that if you want to
throw the TWU out you have to support AMFA.
Showing support for the Teamsters is the same as showing support for the TWU.
This is all been orchestrated by the TWU International.
The TWU and Teamsters are going to drag this out until cards start to expire or the members start to loose interest all together and give up. Then who wins here?
The TWU and we are back to square one. We can not let this happen. The TWU and Teamsters are playing their supporters. We need to get this done ASAP!!
AMFA is the only real alternative.

Ancillary. Hope those rampers who performed said work the day after mechanics are doing it slept well. They're all scabs. I understand that in outstations w/ no mx that ramp was doing it all along. At US, they could have a mechanic do stores work. Should they have done all of that if they let all of the stores people go? I mean, it's in their contract....

 

[700UW]

It is in the CBA if no stores person is manned at that station.

And why would you pay a mechanic to do a stock clerk job when the stores makes way less than a mechanic?

Let me ask you this, if a person refuses to do work that is in their CBA, isnt that insubordination?

 

[blue collar]

So your answer is yes?

HOW MANY TIMES DO I NEED TO SIGN A CARD BEFORE THEY GET IT RIGHT !!,....this is very frustrating, its like fighting city hall,...was fed up with the TWU may moons ago Kemo Sahbee.It's almost getting to be a pipe dream now.But I'll keep signing.

Hopefully no more in 2013. I still predict an announcement being made sometime in first quarter, but hopefully no later than 2ndQ. Don't give up brother, IT IS going to happen...

Come on 700 you and I both know that work performed by fleet had nothing to do with taking down AMFA. (although it didn't help) .How bout pilots sitting on write ups, the FAA looking the other way at real problems happening there and our own original AMT's crossing the line to keep the operation going cuz the scabs were f'kn everything up and with all of that they still barely pulled it off.

Your right lineguy, joshie will never learn.

WOW,WELL DONE INTERNATIONAL GROUP. YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING ! A PAGE RIGHT OUT OF "THE PRINCE'S" PLAYBOOK. DIVIDE AND CONQUER THE DISSENTERS TAKE AWAY THE UNION HALL AND CHARTER THAT WE THE FEW GAVE TO DON SO THAT WE WOULD NOT BE TIED TO THE 513 AND HAVE OUR OWN VOICE. I HOPE YOU THIEVES GET WHAT'S COMING TO YOU! YOU EXPECT THE COMPANY TO SCREW THE MEMBERSHIP THAT'S THEIR JOB BUT DIVIDING AND CONQUERING YOUR OWN MEMBERS BECAUSE YOU DO NOT LIKE WHAT THEY SAY?

COWARDLY THAT'S WHAT IT IS YOU BRILLIANT POLITICIANS. REMINDS ME OF THE SCENE IN BRAVEHEART WHEN THE LORDS SELL WILLIAM WALLACE OUT FOR LAND AND TITLES SO THAT THE KING CAN DEFEAT WALLACE ON THE BATTLEFIELD. THEY WALK AWAY ON THE FIELD OF BATTLE WITH THEIR ARMIES. MUCH THE SAME WAY AS THE TWU HAS DONE TO OUR MEMBERS. SOLD US OUT! BUNCH OF PROSTITUTES!

TWU/AA ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY FEEDING OFF OF EACH OTHERS DEAD AND DYING MEMBERS.

WHAT A DISGRACE AND WHAT A SHAMM! I HOPE EVERY MAINTENANCE AND RELATED WALKS AWAY FROM YOU TWU AND THAT AMFA ELECTION COMES VERY SOON!!!!!!!

By the way I wish more in the AA-TWU spoke the way I do and criticized management, but they dont want to put their deals at risk.

Nice plug Bob. On the campaign trail?

Not for two more years. Now you sound just like Hewitt! He alleged that I was pushing for release to get reelected, turns out he was blocking it to try and get an International spot.

Well Chuck resigned before this was announced, and the execution of the Locals doesnt take place till April 1 I'm guessing so the answer is not yet. I guess you could call it a RIF, but we can "reapply for a position" in 591!

Curious. People I spoke to said they heard rumors about this months ago. They also stated it was posted. I am going to try to find that post.

Found it.
