Aircraft maint issues

[WeAAsles]

We could take them to court for misrepresenting since they said there would be a vote on the association. Are we could prove everyone wrong and sign cards and get a vote after signing enough AMFA cards to get a election. Since there seems to be no movement at the contract talks. Let’s get AMFA and there lawyers economists they have and go up against Jerry glass

Better to start your own Union and stay as far away as possible from SSM&P if you could ever get it rockin. SSM&P OWN AMFA bro.

How about AFOPAM? “American Fraternal Order of Professional Aircraft Mechanics”

I think the other dream died with Del.

 

[WeAAsles]

He also said delta plus 7 that was a lie now delta plus 3 for amt so Parker word is no good

The fact Delta now brought up their Profit Sharing back to what it was before “should” bring back the Delta plus 7% line?

Unless they stick it on the back end into a higher 401k.

But yes I agree with you that Parker should be held to his words from his mouth.

To the TWU Membership,

The permit has been issued and we are taking our fight to American Airlines Headquarters, on October 26. We are going to make sure that Doug Parker and Robert Isom get the message, it’s time for them to step up and get this contract done!

Membership frustration has grown to the boiling point. as we enter the airlines busiest season. As member's we can no longer sit idly by through another holiday season, while American Airlines drags their feet getting the JCBA negotiated. We must take a stand. by showing up in full force at Headquarters to demand what we were promised! As American Airlines continues to profit from our labor, we have a right to the contract that Doug Parker and Robert Isom promised, not more concessionary proposals.

If Doug Parker & Robert Isom want to gain employee trust. then they must take their own leap of faith and deliver to the membership what they promised; "the best contract in the industry." But Doug Parker & Robert Isom are now trying to change their narrative to "the best pay in the industry" and that is unacceptable! On Thursday our member's voices will be heard; when we show up and make sure Doug Parker and Robert Isom hear that we are not willing to acquiesce into the leadership's new narrative and accept anything less than the best contract in the industry. Simply put, we cannot allow Doug Parker and Robert Isom to weasel out on the promise they made to us as employees; we must demand that they deliver the best contract in the industry - now.

The only excuse for not being in attendance on Thursday is that you are at work. And, if you are at work then you too have the opportunity to show unity by wearing a union shirt, hat, pin or anything that identifies you as a union member. It's time to send a loud and clear message to both Doug Parker and Robert Isom, that the pace of negotiations is unacceptable and must be changed immediately: As members we are all tired of the lack of progress and length between negotiating sessions; let’s get a deal done that makes American great again and keeps our jobs in the United States.

I think you guys would be better served , if you had your own union. We have paid a lot of money in legal fees with very little results. But if you think AMFA is the answer, then try it again. Either way there is nothing to lose.

Looking back at the last say 20 years or so can you honestly recall ANY Union putting in more effort to get their members a Contract than what the TWU is doing right now?

Honestly this is the TWU I always wanted to see and be a part of.

Maybe they now think they need to earn their keep?

Weasle if you are impressed by this you are just as stupid as they are. I bet you voted for Trump also.

Larry if the you of today is nothing more than some loud mouth bully blowhard who does NOTHING but complain and doesn’t lift a finger to even try, I don’t really have time for you.

I guess you “used” to be somebody until you became nothing but anger and bitterness?

And I don’t give a chit about stupid f’n politics right now either.

Edit: If you’re not part of the solution then you’re probably part of the problem and should just stay out of the way or stay home.

Rogallo those “PEOPLE” were not the ones you think have F’d you in your career. Yea I think they are trying to earn their keep.

Have you EVER seen the TWU put this much pressure on AA before? What other Union is out there doing this right now?

I know exactly who F'd me and my career. And these new "PEOPLE" you speak of best get the job done. I think they know that.

Yeah, the company is shaking in their boots. 2 negotiating sessions in 7 weeks. Who's putting the pressure on who??

They “WANT” to get the job done Rogallo. They aren’t going to try to get the job done because people are threatening them though. And yea they know they got a lot they need to prove to you all.

And is the Company maybe putting the pressure on back at us? Maybe yea? So what. Would you rather we lay down instead? You want us to back off if the Company starts to make it tough?

I thought this was the TWU you always wanted?

Don't know where you get the impression it's the union I always wanted. I think they suck when it comes to M&R. Now, Fleet, that's a different story and there's a thread for that!!

 

[swamt]

Maybe they now think they need to earn their keep?

Yes. They know they are on the chopping block. They let it get too far once again. Some fellas are gearing up for the card drive again as they should.

Well your Union of choice has proven without a shadow of a doubt that they suck big time too I guess.

And please write up the BS yet again. I’ve read it enough times to make me puke.

Good luck in your retirement BTW.
