Well.
 
Looks like the negotiations prep will take even longer. The announced February TWU meetings will now take place in the middle of March and it seems they do not include the IAM.
 
Sigh! SMH.
Oh darn....that 4% is looking further and further distant.......Oil prices slowly edging back up....
By the time we get a deal....Things will be vastly different for us ground workers in comparison to the FA's and pilots.

Business as usual.
 
Must be nice for the TWU and IAM to play hot potato and keep passing the blame.  I'm real glad the so-called association has the working mans back or is it their own?  Meanwhile the dues keep rolling in.
 
Not as bad as expected.

After weeks of negotiation with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, United agreed to keep the jobs of ramp workers and customer service employees at six of these airports in exchange for "contract modifications," the union said Thursday in a post on its website.
 
Before taking effect, the agreement must be approved by a vote of the affected workers, who are located in or near Tulsa; San Antonio; Indianapolis; San Jose, California; Reno, Nevada; and Billings, Montana, the union said.
 

Ramp workers will be outsourced at another six airports, while customer service employees there will retain their jobs, also pending a vote. These airports are in or near Atlanta; Sacramento; St. Louis; Kansas City; Raleigh, North Carolina; and Fort Myers, Florida.
 
"It is truly unfortunate that the gap between vendors proposals and United's contractual costs could not be bridged in all stations," union official Rich Delaney said in the website post.

That should tell any sane person to dump them both and bring in AMFA.

Let me translate that for you.
 
"We have already cut a deal with the IAM while keeping the membership in the dark.  We will let you know how we decided your future later."

Dont give up your day job.
 
Each station and work group had someone on the negotiating committee for this reduction. And the details are already in the hands of the stations effected.
 
Keep up the lies.
 
And dont let the facts get in your way.

And the concessions were?
On another site I frequent, someone from IND stated they'll take a $2.00/hr. cut, lose their 401k match, and have split shifts. Not sure how accurate that is, or if it applies to the other stations mentioned...

regardless it's hard to see any of it being posted as a postive rather it should be posted as a glaring example of poor leadership.
