IAM Withdraws NMB Election Application

[WorldTraveler]

There will be no profit sharing for any AA workgroup post JCBA because those were the terms of the merger agreements.

Parker knew what was coming with sustained profitability in the industry, AA and US labor leaders didn't and got duped by him and will be underpaid relative to the industry for years to come.

Consolidation was destined to increase profitability and the fate of US airline employees and yet AA and US union leaders wouldn't believe that they could have what DL and WN employees have with large profit sharing and so they let Parker talk them out of it.

The only way anything could change is if AA reopens all of the JCBAs that have been negotiated at the time he agrees to add PS to even one agreement and he won't do that.

PS is gone for AA employees if they want a JCBA, the IAM can try to ignore the value of it but no one is fooled, and Laura Glading will be chasing DL salaries just like she has done her entire career- using her own words.

The merger agreement doesn't prevent profit sharing.

Keep the the lies and misinformation.

Why do you keep lying?

 

[robbedagain]

u truly are a classless  clueless piece of work   you have no flipping clue about what will and what will not occur with a JCBA   you seriously need help    a lot of it.      Should PS be part of BA   what will your response be    youd be in state of shock most likely

and for those who are willing to believe it, DOT statistics show how much insourcing each airline does in everything besides maintenance and on that basis, DL is middle of the pack among US airlines.

Given that DL is bringing more flying back to mainline and is also bringing work back inhouse, the pendulum is swinging in the right direction at DL and is swinging more strongly for DL than for other airlines.

Why don't you tell us what work is coming back "in-house" compared to what is going out. 
For TechOps the amount of outsourcing will, once again, grow for 2014 and 2015. 
 

DL has 429 RJs flying in its name.
The new AA only has 343 RJs.
 
Looks like DL outsources more flying than the new AA.
Dont let the facts get in your way.
 
Keep up the lies and misinformation.

FWIW I don't believe AA has hit its max yet. UA/DL/AA pretty much all have the same scope. 
 

of course the Union wants to sweep under the table that Delta F/A's are getting around 15% of their yearly salary in PS.
and it's been a few years now.

for now. 
Watch the pilot TA. If they changed profit sharing we will too. 
 
So again, you need to thank ALPA for what you have. Company almost always just does what they pilot contract says in cases like PS. 

 

[WorldTraveler]

you have just posted about new work that is coming back in house including new work in MSP.

The merger agreement doesn't prevent profit sharing.

Keep the the lies and misinformation.

Why do you keep lying?

Perhaps I am wrong but I am certain that I have read that the agreements that each of the labor groups made with Parker for the merger were based on no profit sharing.

IF that isn't true, then APA and APFA, the two largest payroll groups at AA, simply blew it.

since Parker said PS is off the table, I have a feeling they are more in tune with what is going on than you.

Profit sharing is not an option and AA employees will be underpaid as long as other employees in the industry get some percentage of its compensation for profit sharing since PS has generated such large amounts of compensation for DL and WN employees.

 

[700UW]

Nope the original MOU with the TWU contained profit sharing.

 

[WorldTraveler]

and yet none of the JCBAs have it and Parker said it isn't the right way to compensate employees.

tell you what, pal. when one of the groups gets it in a JCBA, let me know.

Speaking of money, our attendance policy was just unilaterally changed, and I will likely suffer financial harm as a result.

Where's my recourse?

 

[robbedagain]

according to WT you have recourse thru DL HR     of course  at DL mercy

tell us what changed and why you will be harmed.

 

[Kev3188]

Lol. We don't even have that.

No recourse... No "running it by the FIT team"... No nothin'...

 

[WorldTraveler]

DL has NEVER run compensation by FIT or CIT or DIT or any other teams.

and you know what, if your peers think that they are being mistreated, they can hire a union - and end up with less pay.

robbed is happy to throw stones at DL while failing to note that the average salary for airport personnel at US is $11,000 less at US than it is at DL - a whopping 25% higher for DL employees.

Even with the RR program, DL airport employees are THE HIGHEST PAID legacy airline airport employees

 

[robbedagain]

recheck the PMUS salary with our 14 contract and compare the top out wage vs DL      you truly are clueless 

 

[WorldTraveler]

no, robbed, there is factual data that shows what airline employees actually make, not what is on paper.

DL airport employees are the 2nd most highly paid of the legacy carriers - ie ahead of AA, UA, and US since US still reports under its own certificate.

 

[700UW]

Ah misinformation everywhere.
 
US no longer has its own certificate, SOC was granted on April 8, 2015.
 
Its all under the AA certificate now.

Dont let the facts get in your way.
 
And 40% of DL's Ramp is Ready Reserve, one raise, no benefits and a max of around $12 an hour, with hours capped annually.
