DL Terminates Labor Activist Kip Hedges

[robbedagain]

I for one would love to see the "facts" to the notion that DL did not challenge the UC claim in MN

The idea of representation "sells" itself. The cavalier dismissal of a fellow worker by the company only adds momentum...

 

[WorldTraveler]

And we're still waiting for you to admit that you're being paid by Delta for whatever it is you think you're doing here on this site.

Care to come clean?

 so you think I am inside and paid and others think I am an outsider
You all truly need to be more creative in your consideration of options

Is that why the cash register has a repetitive display that says 'no sale'

I don't think or care if you work directly for Delta but I do think you or the firm you work for gets paid by Delta.

Again care to come clean?

I believe that part of your contract more than likely stipulates that you are not allowed to say you work for or are compensated in any way by Delta Airlines or any subsidiaries.

Your admission would more than likely violate the terms of your contract and would be grounds for either you or your firms release from service.

And I'm not a part of any organization with my activities here. I'm not compensated or under obligation for my activities here. This is merely a hobby of mine to see Delta organized and from there when it happens I'll move on to my next hobby.

 

[robbedagain]

totally agree with you WeAA

I'm quite clean.

somehow we're supposed to believe that you, Kev, 700, and a cast of thousands here push the union campaign because you believe in the union ideal but I as someone that simply wants to note that DL people have repeatedly chosen to spurn further representation am supposed to be paid?

no.

I believe passionately in the values I hold.

You hold yours in high regard.

Unions have clearly helped some in the airline industry. DL people still are far from convinced they need unions.

 

[Kev3188]

This company overreach is definitely opening some eyes (and driving card signing) across the system.

Again you fail to answer a very simple question? One that would answer the question of your unwavering advocacy for everything in regards to painting and keeping Delta Airlines in a sort of mystical shining light where they are always correct in their business practices.

Are you compensated in any way either directly or indirectly for your work posting on here by Delta Airlines or their management team? Do you have a CONTRACT that could be placed at risk if you answer the question?

Your refusal to answer this question the many times I have proposed this about you is speaking volumes.

 

[WorldTraveler]

I have repeatedly answered the question.
I get nothing from anyone for my positions one way or another on this or any other forum.
I can accept that you are just a volunteer to the movement. Not sure why there are people who believe in their positions and don't need any financial reward.


how many people are in your workgroup, Kev? 10K +/-? I'm sure you are aware that you need 50% plus 1 in cards.

cards, like milk and meat, expire.

Q's assessment is the closest to any here of being accurate... if DL feels there is any reason for negotiation.

 

[Kev3188]

And?

I still think you're answer seems like a carefully crafted end run around the question I've asked but I'm sure that this is the best answer I'll get out of you anyway?

And I'm not a volunteer to the movement. I am thankfully and happily waist deep in it.

"Not sure why there are people who believe in their positions and don't need any financial reward."

Quite sad that apparently you don't stand for anything then? I'd prefer not to be hollow and vacuous through my life.

What?

So people should only advocate their beliefs if they're paid to do so?

Wow.

WT would not have said that if he wasn't paid to advocate for DL on there - makes you wonder why DL is the only airline that needs someone on here bloviating on their behalf - if they are as good as one cheerleader claims you would need to be on here trashing so many airlines - makes you wonder what they are afraid of
