Just curious GT; Although a little early, are you hearing any rumblings on how the vote is leaning at this time? Any hints on what the hold ups are? Positives? How are the info meetings going? Good luck to you guys...gtd said:They tally the votes on January 25th. The voting starts at the end of this month. GT
Wow! 😵D7571987 said:1800 people on furlough are also voting on this contract and the company is offering them $1000 to vote yes, with the stipulation that their names will be removed from the recall list.

Amen brother, Amen. How long does it take for the members to this?gtd said:There's so many things wrong that it's difficult to put it here. The teamster's teamcare and VEBA is a big issue. Giving up more medical to the company. No retro. A virtual "c" scale. The end of retiree medical. Cut in profit sharing. ON and On and on. I don't care how bad anyone else claims their union is. The ibt by far is the worst. GT
I would have agreed with that 10 years ago, but it looks like SWA is in no hurry to negotiate. Apparently the employees are ok with that, planes keep rolling.topDawg said:Well we are getting close, anyone have a hot or cold feeling on this? Hopefully a no, it would be terrible for the rest of the industry.
Really need UA, WN and AA to hit the ball out of the park, but the only one i have faith in is WN. I figure the IBT and IAM/TWU jokes will continue to screw mechanics over.
I mean the union itself. The company isn't sitting at the table with them because, unlike the others, AMFA isn't willing to take concessionsTopCat870 said:I would have agreed with that 10 years ago, but it looks like SWA is in no hurry to negotiate.
