How many mechanics and related worked at AA in 2001?

[Bob Owens]

Maybe you should have cared how many worked at AA when you and your friends AMFA Dave and Decision 2004 were AMFA organizers. Had you paid more attention to the number in 2004, maybe you wouldn't have let your colleagues down the way you did when you stopped soliciting cards once you had what you thought was just over 50% of the class and craft.

Had you collected cards from 55% or 60% or even 70%, you would have been rid of the TWU. Instead, your worthless union and the company were able to play fast and loose with the numbers. That wouldn't have happened if you'd collected more cards.

Here's to hoping the next organizers to eliminate the TWU care a little more than you did.

Actually they collected well over 60%, but the TWU, AMR and the NMB added another 3000 names to the list in order to prevent a vote. Many of those added were dead, resigned or never even worked for the company.
