Tug,
Bob is a disgruntled AA mechanic who rears his head when things are bad at other airlines, urges everyone not to take concessions so AA will survive.
He was the ST at the TWU JFK Local till removed because he is an AMFA Supporter.

And you are an IAM scam artist who will do anything to preserve your position in the IAM.
Including standing by while your members get screwed.
By the way one of the reasons why the TWU International removed me was because when our turn for concessions came we were the only local that campained hard against them including taking out a full page ad in Tulsa urging the members to reject it, we didnt have the funds to do the same in MCI, and MCI provided the 700 needed to pass it. In hindsight if we had the time we should have taken out a loan.
Our concessions guaranteed that USAIR would come back for more from you!
We also took the International to court because of the concessions.
Our mechanics (Local 562)voted NO by over 90%.
I fought for my members, all of them, including stores, call and ask them if you like,not like you just sitting back doing whatever you can to never actually have to work under the conditions you put in place,offering weak pathetic "leadership". Leadersip is more than holding a title pal. Be a man for a change and stand up for your members, or are you afraid that you too will be removed and sent back to work under the conditions you helped put in place?
We provided leadership and fought against the concessions, no ambiguity here, none of this pathetic "we cant endorse this" crap but a fight.
So I can come here and confidently leave myself open to attacks from a useless POS like you because I am willing to do as I say. I accepted my responsiblities as a union leader and fought for my members instead of selling them out in the hopes of moving up in the union.
So tell us "Where are the Fighting Machinists"?
