Is your primary source of income your investments? If not, you're not a Capitalist. Maybe a fan of the system, but that's it.
Atta boy!
I would.

I can see that you have no understanding of the way the AA/TWU/TULSA cycle works.
Basically American showed up in Tulsa in the late 1940's I believe.
Tulsa and American has been open ever since, why would they close now
The TWU wants the work here and the company gets everything rather inexpensive.
Are you saying a topped out unionized overhaul mechanic at AA is rather inexpensive?
Great article thanks for sharing. It really seems all the same exact steps as we had in our nego's. Now the only differences are the fact that the company (AA) was granted a TRO and now moved to a perm. one with possible fines and restitution coming forth. The other huge factor that might help moving nego's forward is the fact that this complete moron just acted on his own to try to cause the airline to get him overtime.
I hope you guys get a T/A this time around. Just very leery of that happening at this first meeting.
BTW: Thanks for bringing it back on topic.

If his context of being financially strapped means he couldn't work OT because of the job action or pressure from other mechanics to not work, then there is a huge liability issue for the Association.
Remember, his actions took place in July and the airline was the one that got the FBI involved. If the statements from the mechanic pushes then towards the job action, oh boy.

i thought the delta mx are best benefits and best pay? Why would they want a union to stop them?
I read some of the comments on this thread and as far as politics, i made a great economic move to move to republican florida and leave the overtaxed armpit ord. The vast majority of smart democrats and independents like me are leaving the cesspool democratic chitholes and keeping thousands in our pocket.

the association just put out a cryptic email devaluing the higher wage and bonus and upselling the pension.
Sounds as if the company may reallocate our extra cash into the iam pension unless we are forced to pay for Garcias botched slowdown. either way, a deal next week or at least a "great progress was made and just gotta do some touch up"

no reason to pay the assoc. Hopefully, Trump and this new court case will allow us to opt out of paying a single dime.

No, I am saying that Tulsa is getting the facility almost for nothing.

As an IAM member if I’m forced to stay in the pension and not gain 401 k match, that won’t make this member happy
Where can one fine this cryptic email? I remember the Association video response to the company's last offer, they illuded to the AMT pay topping SWA, and how that would have to be revisited.

I have noticed most of his predictions dont come true. And facts are generally optional.
