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.

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.Black Magic said:

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.La Li Lu Le Lo said:
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.

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...AANOTOK said:
