TWU loses Election

[SkydrolJunkie]

The Transport Workers Union fell nearly 300 votes short in its bid to represent baggage handlers and cargo agents at Continental Airlines Inc., the union's second setback in as many years at the Houston-based carrier.

Smart bunch of people.

If and when the NMB allows an election between the TWU and anybody for the Mechanic and Related at AA, the TWU will also lose that election.

The TWU is only on AA property because members have not been given a ballot to remove them yet.

Its a real shame nobody wants to join the twu. Could it be the 20+ years of twu concessions, no accountability, the appointment of AA management, alcoholics, and felons to the offices of the twu International? :huh: :down:

How much money did the twu spend on organizing two drives at CO? Did the twu use kirk "To the doors and stop!" wells? 😉

They sure could have used the felon in another failed twu CAL drive. I hear he's busy mopping up after the man. The twu has lots of cash for drives since they don't represent its members, and have fought the AMFA drive with AA help to the tune of millions.

TO THE STALLS AND MOP!!!! 🙄
