They certainly can. There is NOTHING preventing them from laying off right now on the LAA side.

Not at all in fact I believe it's long overdue. They are expecting DWH to be busy in the near future and that station should be eligible for Line pay as well as that is the bulk of their work.

DWH was also supposed to be manning up for 5 lines and 737 gear changes this past summer. That work did not materialize. I do not believe for one second that our work will be picking up. As far as line pay goes, it's not going to happen. After speaking with our local president and reading between the lines, we wont see the extra pay.
It wasn’t take your jobs, it was not take your weekends away. You traded away a few years of Saturday Sunday off with several years and counting of double expenses and commuting to Texas.
Great forethought there in Texas.

If true, I am sure the check is being moved from anther station.
BTW, the don't forget the grand opening of the Brazil hanger in a couple of weeks..You know the one that just puts a roof over people's heads!
Hmmmm. Could it be where that 737 gear shop and the 5 manned lines might be going? As well as maybe even that 777 line?? Is anyone within the asso following what maint will get performed in Brazil??? Yea right. What company would spend the funds to just put a roof over the workers heads???

I see where you guys and gals rejected your contract go get them for us since our union doesn’t care about current members and top pay in industry they just care about there member numbers and dues

Will do. Union is sending out the surveys as we speak. Hopefully a quick turnaround But, I don't expect the company to change the way they have been doing it. We will see how they respond.

Seems pretty unified for such a un union like union as some here would characterize. Especially in the face of what would be an unheard of retro check were it AA??
