American Airlines and Labor Negotiations

[ALUS78]

So Al here tells me that I remind him of Morton Downey Jr. I can absolutely see the resemblance Al. (And I do miss my Cigarettes)

“Morton Downey Jr vs Stripper for God”

Zip it Weez ....he would invite these people to his show be cordial for 5 minutes and then attack

Weez keeps calling himself a member. He's not. Nobody is a member, not even Screaming Mr Baskett. We have no rights whatsoever. Now, 2 years later, Baskett and Gary Peterson are left scrambling wondering what happened and apparently calling for a slowdown. Be careful with that because those guys will get sued by the company if anything significant happens in any slowdown now, plus there can be little doubt that the company would wipe out half of PHL and even some in CLT by giving the 175 work to a vendor. No bullets in our gun. The Association blew it with the cross utilization agreement. That's a fatal flaw in negotiatin 101. Never cave in on a company's biggest need by only accepting the money. Unfortunately, the TWU bit since their dues is based on base wages. We would have had a JCBA 2 years ago like everyone else. So now, the chest thumping and feet stomping and screaming updates have begun.

They present no exit strategy, they just say "Fight like hell". With what? How? They either allow the final offer to be voted on or go into section 6 and wait a few years and see what happens. The only delay could be them filing jointly for expedited mediation which never works.

Tim people have no idea how much of a jam we are in this could and probably will take years.I base this on Parkers history (pilots ,attendants at US and AW) and Sitos incompetence

Same routine on my show Al. About 5 minutes being cordial and kind and then BAM, lay the hammer down and start hurling those insults.

Just part of the show is all.

Gulf coast be careful bro apparently Tim is going to break the cuffs out again and there will be great pain for all.


You know come to think of it maybe one of those hookers he got in IAH was a dominatrix and he learned the cuffs and great pain there? Hmmm to each his own I suppose

Funny. Well, hell at least you appear to be rolling with things on here now instead of being so pissy. lol

I miss that guy actually. Of course, that was back when you could say anything in this country before Obama brought in all of this restriction on freedom of speech and other individual rights.

You must be mistaken. I'm not going anywhere. I'm staying right next to the tent and pissing in it for good now. That's what I did so effectively before Delaney unfortunately convinced me that this union was democratic. Then unfortunately organizing 42,000 souls into this miserable union before realizing the democracy was zippo. Be watchful Gulfcoast, this is where I'm going to deliver great pain to the IAM.

That sucks. What a bummer that is. Oh well, just make sure you clean from front to back when you finish so you don't have problems down there. That probably went right over his head, literally and figuratively.

It's good to breathe again and be a non member. I'm much more productive this way pissing in the tent.

I find it interesting you are changing your tune ( as always ) about being a non member. One post you state you are no longer a member of the IAM, and another post you change it to not a member of the association. So I’ll ask you again. Are you still a member of the IAM?

Bet you know exactly what his status is,at least you should considering your position. Instead of bickering with Tim wouldn't your time be better served clearing up any concerns and answering any questions from the ranks in your station.Perhaps someone in the video wasn't 100% honest or maybe a honest mistake and you should clear that up

I was in my station all day Al. You have a question feel free to let me know. Or better yet here is my cell 704-860-1802. Why don’t you give me a call. Question for you. Why do you feel the need to defend Mr Nelson?

You have a problem of listening to someone that is playing everyone. He has even admitted it before. Of course I also know he loves being about 8 different people on forums also. So why don’t you give me a call. Maybe you and I can meet one day for lunch.

That's easy, I believe he keeps you union folk honest.A watchdog if you will.Thanks for your number I will definitely call you when the need arises.Ill save for something important It's great I've always had trouble contacting the IAM in the past.I wish I had it when you were at the table and the subject of rotating shifts at just 3 stations was brought up

Yea ok. I’ll be waiting for your call.
Make sure to leave a voice message in case I don’t answer. We will see how soon that happens.
Seriously I want to buy you lunch one day to discuss your issues.

Do I have your permission to give your number to other union members.Im sure many members have questions.The rotating shifts are a hot topic.I myself wonder why it's not a system vote after all Peterson said in one of his videos seniority is everything or words to the affect

Oh I'll definitely call in the meantime is anyone going to edit the video that just came out.Perhaps when comparing contracts with another work group one should read their contract
