American Airlines and Labor Negotiations

[ALUS78]

stop being 700, you're better than that. had nothing to do with the merger.

Yes im.being sarcastic but it is billions, in the end i know its not going mean squat.But i truly believe the parity part

Can't have parity when each starts from a different place with different priorities.

When this whole thing started many believed it was going to be a quick and easy process. The TWU side didn't really appreciate the position the IAM was going to be in considering they'd have to give up more while receiving less.

I read on fb not sure if its true someone called nmb and they said no meetings are scheduled

That is a fact i called today. They said:
They were there last week.
They are not here this week and nothing is scheduled. They did say its "on going"
As far as a gag order thet said talk to your representatives there is no imposed gag order.
Might be self imposed, who knows they dont tell us anything.

Then the ASS originally lied. They had told us the NMB had requested a gag order...

Well if we are on a holiday hold then now is a good time to start a card drive. See how fast the association gets back to the table if a drive kicks A$$.

feel free to call yourself 1-202-692-5000 ask the same questions
what is the status of negotiations?
can you share any details on future dates?
is there a gag order imposed by the nmb on the association and or the company?

Click your heels together 3 times, wish in one hand and see what you get in the other.

What should of happened was that both sides should have been advised as to the others priorities and work towards getting to address as many as possible.

To this day, the TWU doesn't understand the IAM's point of view with their medical and catering. Instead the TWU just focused on the differences between the holidays, overtime and things they have over the TWU CBA. That created unnecessary animosity.

The IAM side doesn't fully appreciate the frustrations the TWU side feels over their inferior positions in certain items as compared to the IAM and the industry.

By starting this process as a "no concessions" stance each side expected their wants to be met. Subsequently, there was little time and efforts given to explain the challenges which makes it improbable everyone gets what they want.

Cant argue with that point. Toss in the animosity from the initial lawsuit from local 591 (looking back the membershio should have supported more) and you have a receipe for todays circumstances

No what should of happened is the twu since they were the biggest take over like with fa and pilots. We were screwed because of the money the iampf is for the unions. It was all about politics and money. Jim little screwed us again. I knew there would be no vote. The twu was to scared of mechanics writing in AMFA .
