American Airlines and Labor Negotiations

[B737 driver]

First of all you are not a ramper, as CB is a Fleet Service AGC and negotiates for the ramp, and second he is IAM, you are TWU.

Maybe just an observation is why the TWU guys get pissed off, because they are taken for granted. They were told they were part of the Association, I don't think they feel represented.

I Don't buy it (until it's officially noted in the Association Update) which I eagerly await.

Agreed out of character, but Peterson talking chit isnt

Word just coming down the pipe is that Isom got so upset at Peterson today that he tried to take a poke at him from across the table. Stephen Johnson quickly grabbed and restrained Robert while the Mediator just shook his head in disbelief.

Very unprofessional behavior.

That is pretty astonishing if true. I can't quite imagine seeing that.

I would think it would be just the opposite, Gary taking a swing at skinny boy Isom.

Either way it's not a real good sign of negotiations, if this is true. Not good.

Interesting if true. I wonder what set him off? Surely it couldn't have been GP s public personal attacks.

Now now peterson might have started that Isom sabotage to take Parkers job chit. But ill take it wiith a grain of salt totally out of character for Isom.Peterson started the lie i give the benefit of tbe doubt to isom

You guys can’t be telling me that Robert Isom doesn’t look and sound exactly like that Schoolyard Bully that used to torment all of us when we were back in Grade School?

The man is an absolute terror. A ball of anger just waiting to blow IMO.

Probably so in a used car salesman sort of way

Correct talking 5 years at least all other work groups will go in front of us for starters.

Nah he seemed alright

I met him after the slot swap with Dl was quite candid thats all i.ask for. Now with negotiations both sides could get shady like a used car salesman its to.be expected

 

[ALUS78]

Company Man

Nah just giving my opinion do you believe petersons story of Isom purposely tanking the company so he could he could get parkers job?

 

[ALUS78]

My sources there told me it happened.

What happened? I asked you about petersons accusation

 

[WeAAsles]

This man frightens me. He’s got the face of a man who looks like he can snap on a dime. A very intimidating fellow.
