Where is pIttbull?
Her consulting business must in the toilet over the FAs getting RECESSED.
It's a good thing she has her non-airline job because she has kept us with the same DOUBLE BANKRUPTCY contract that she gave us 7 years ago.
Why did you quit, by the way?
Way to go pitbull - you really know your stuff - or how TG would answer - "or not".
Can you imagine how irrelevant you will be when we (those that actually work here) finally get a contract from AA?
Your credibility is zero, nada, zip, zilch!
You are a has been loser with a failed strategy.
Better luck in your non-airline job.
MM!
Hey Nutcase...
I am going to post here again what I posted on another thread:
For the Creditors to accept an 8.5 billion deal in an
all stock deal in the "new" merged company, they would be taking a pretty big risk IMO. Now, if it were a CASH deal, that offer would look quite different.
If I were on the creditors committee, I would be thinking how big of a risk it would be to acutally, someday, realize any real value for the airline stock, when hisorically, airline stocks generally are so risky and vulnerable to "market conditions".
Throw in the labor integration issues of America West (not yet fully merged after 7 years) US Airways whose f/as can strike at any time once released from the NMB, and AA pensions, while frozen, basically still on the books for AA, and ALL of US Airways employees having had their pensions dumped,
and America West who never had a defined pension...
you have what most would call a real "cluster #%$k" lasting years if not decades in litigation in seniority and labor integration issues.
Then, throw in the AA pension plan liabilities...I see all of US Airways labor never agreeing to pay for 50-60,000 employees pension plans as part of their merged contract.
As a stock investor, I would never even consider the stock, except maybe to "short it".
You, on the other hand have no idea how MUCH MONEY will come out of YOUR pocket if US Airways assumes the AA labor contracts.
YOU will be supporting the liabilities on the pension plans alone.
With regard to the TA2... your so-called CONTRACT raise could be wiped out with one hospitalization visit from you and your family members, depending on the package you choose. The cost of the new health care premiums and deductables, and co pays will eat your raise up very nicely. I don't think you were smart enough to factor those possibilities in.
Even with a passing of the TA2, you guys would have made less than the BK concessionary agreements the AA f/as have. Of course, with another merger, like any other merger, that's if you even are able to keep your sorry azze employed.
